Man hypnotizes self before op
April 21, 2008
Alex Lenkei chose to use the mind instead of drugs as anesthetic. Using self hypnosis Alex claims he was able to block out all of the pain from the surgery while being fully aware. The surgeon David Llewelyn-Clark had no qualms over the unusual request.
However, before you try this on yourself from some internet self help book, Lenkei has been a registered hypnotist since age 16. Throughout the surgery Lenkei said he felt deeply relaxed and there was a anasthesiologist on hand the entire time in case Lenkei’s plan did not go as well as he intended.
Wow. now only if UFC fighters could do this.

Felix Dadaev was a was a dancer and a juggler that was forced to work as a body double for Joseph Stalin. He feared a death sentence for half a century before finally coming forward with his story. his duties mostly included nonspeaking parts, however he was also sent to a hospital as Stalin’s corpse at one point while still alive. He was in his twenties but with the use of makeup was able to appear in his sixties (Stalin’s age at the time).
