Randy Charach hypnotizes a sales employee and plants a suggestion that the number 6 no longer exists. When asked to count aloud, the man skips or distorts every 6. Charach then tests his focus with simple math to show how the suggestion holds.

Your feet will support you, your legs will support you, okay? Here we go.
And sleep.
That's right. Good. And in a moment, you're not going to remember the number 6. In fact, the number 6 will have never existed for you. What I'm going to do is I'm going to point to a finger, and as I do, if you don't mind, I'd like you to count for me.
Okay, here we go. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11.
I don't know, I don't know if that's quite right. Let's go backwards, we'll go backwards, okay? We'll start here, let's start at 10.
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. 7, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.
Hmm. And sleep. Now, in a moment, I'm going to have you open your eyes. And we're going to try a little exercise. 6 is still gone. 6 is still gone. Good. You're doing good. Excellent. You're doing a great job, by the way. I do appreciate you. 6. I would say that you have quite an education in your work.
Did you have to have a degree or something? University? I'm in sales.
Oh, you're in sales. So pretty much dropped out of high school then. You seem like a rather clever fellow. Just a very simple exercise. What's 1 plus 1? 2.
Yeah.
2 plus 2? 4. Right. 3 plus 3?
