The remaing people, he had a pretty fun time with. Was pretty amazing and real because I knew several of the people that were left. He made them do all sorts of different stupid things.

I've seen a few of these guys and it's never real. If you think carefully about the things they do, it's not realistic. For example, one guy had students at our college believe napkins were money. He didn't ask them to do anything (ie grab it all) just that if they see a napkin they will believe it's a dollar bill. (It was in a cafeteria btw)
After they came to one girl ran down into the audience and grabbed up every napkin she saw. Here's the thing: Most of the napkins were in front of people on the table, etc. She didn't know most of the people but yet, in her "tranced" state she apparently also believed that walking up to strangers and taking money from right in front of them was okay.
She also was running around excitedly grabbing them and counting out loud - something that was beyond ridiculous "hey I just stole $15 from all you people!"
