Yeah, this guy was hypnotized by a video game and believed he was actually killing zombies. 

"all dumb" sums it up.

Was he supposedly rendered unconcious from the white screen flashes of the Act Labs gun?

If so, that'll be the next kind of gun banned in England.

Wow Peale.... All I can say is thanks....

That was awesome. I wish that woulda happened to me.  I don't know how they coordinated the gun shots to explode on the people like that. 

I wonder what his friends were thinking. They weren't laughing. They were kinda disturbed by their buddies behaviour.  Still, it was hella cool.

It is truly appauling what people can get away with, though I have my doubts as to whether or not this was real

You have doubts?   Come on, you can't seriously believe that this is real.

I saw it the night it was broadcast http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,36464.0.html

Derren Brown rocks, the whole program kicked ass, that vid is cut loads, the whole program explained it better.

I believe it was real. You should see some of his shows, he really is a genius.

You should have seen the live russian roulette he did! 

[shmokes]

that ain't real. 

[quarterback]

that ain't real.

what a load of crap! i think even when hypnotised you would probably wonder why there was a camera man in your face.

if this were real, what a nasty thing to do to someone. who knows how they would react?

The cameras were hidden.

I have to agree it was dangerous. But at the same time, it was really cool. I'd like to think it was real. I kind of wish it was...

There's no kick from the gun because it's an air gun.  You can see the air tank where the rifle stock would be.

It looked like a paintball gun. You could see a puff of smoke from the barrel because of the CO2.

not all of them. look at it again

Yeah the gun was indeed a paintball marker. A Razorback to be precise. Which is rather odd since that's a pump action marker and as far as I know theres no semi conversion kit for it. Well done BBC props dept! What is infinitely more scary than zombies of course is that people believe that you're actually allowed to do that to people in the name of television entertainment. (Wanna think about what would happen if they really did it and the guy went into cardiac arrest or beat someone's skull in with the paint marker?) Moreover, trash "entertainment" like that does nothing but harm reputation of hypnotherapy to help people who have REAL problems.
