A 5 year old girl
hypnotized animals with her soft tone of voice and stroke of her hands to an
amazed panel of judges in a Chinese reality show called the Impossible
Challenge. This show is similar to Britain’s Got Talent. It was reported that the
girl, Han Jiaying first discovered her talent a year ago when someone brought a
frog to her kindergarten in which she hypnotized.
Video above: Watch the girl attempt to hypnotize the animals to sleep
There were 5 animals
that were put to test which included a dog, chicken, rabbit, frog and a lizard.
She was saying, “Sleep dog, sleep dog otherwise Daddy
will be angry, Sleep chicken, sleep otherwise Brother will hit you” and the crowd began to laugh with her
invocation dialogue. She stroked each animal while talking to the animals to go
to sleep and then laid them on their back.

In the beginning, it
appeared as the animals were instantly under a trance until the dog and frog
got up shortly which drew laughter from the panel judges. She ran back to the animals
that woke up and repeated her procedure until all the animals were motionless under
her spell for a few seconds to the amazement of all.

After a few seconds of
spellbound, she then commanded them to wake up, and sure enough, all the
animals rose up by themselves instantly.
Image above: In the end, Jiaying commands all the animals to wake up and they sure enough did it spontaneously at the same time.
In the end, it was the
time of the 3 panel judges to decide whether it was a go or no go for her
talent. The two male judges gave their reasoning why they were not impressed
and gave her the red light meaning she failed to impress them. But, the female
judge who was impressed with her performance gave her the green light in
support of her performance to a smiling Jiaying.
Some experts who
viewed the video told GB Times that the trick uses a natural reflex called “tonic
immobility” or “apparent death”. Some animals appear as temporarily paralyzed
in response to an external threat such as a predator. Humans can also induce
the tonic mobility by gently restraining an animal especially when on its side
or its back.
