Conversational hypnosis?
Derren Brown made a video where he uses conversational hypnosis to pay for things with blank paper. This got me wondering if its possible to use conversational hypnosis to get someone to sell tobacco to a minor (and of course then the minor would give it back because it would be illegal for him to keep it) just like Derren did.
What Derrin Brown uses, is a technique called "NLP" or "Neuro-Linguistic Programming"
This can be considered an extension of Ericksonian Hypnosis, as this field was created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, and is largely based on Erickson’s work.
A lot of what he does uses "embedded commands" and conversational misdirection, among many other NLP techniques.
So, yes, it is probably possible to get someone to sell tobacco to a minor, but the skill level and confidence needed is probably too great for you to achieve without training and years of practice.
