Perhaps it’s Mel Gibson tanking career that drove him to learn how to hypnotize people (you WILL watch my movie!), or maybe he’s just hoping he can get at any random woman’s sugartits. CelebrityFix reports,

Think twice before looking into his eyes ladies … because troubled Hollywood icon Mel Gibson is now a hypnotist.
The screen legend has been taught the power of suggestion and how to put people into a trance by a top Aussie expert. Rick Collingwood spent 10 days with Mel at the actor’s home in Los Angeles teaching him the skills.

Perth-based Rick, 52, who runs Australia’s largest hypnotism academy, said: “Mel’s a natural. He’s got the look and the patter – as well as piercing blue eyes. He’s going to be a great hypnotist.”

Father-of-one Rick, who has been a hypnotist since he was just 12 years old, is a friend of Mel’s brother, Chris. Through Chris, an introduction was set up and he and Mel have now become pals.

Rick said: “Mel’s brother Chris has been into NLP, neuro-linguistic programming, and hypnotism for a long time and he talked to Mel about it over the phone and Mel got interested, too.

“I was heading out to Los Angeles for work so Mel invited me over.

“I was with him for 10 days teaching him the technique. “He is very, very interested in it. He didn’t say he wanted to learn it for a specific reason. He was just curious.”

You don’t hire someone to spend 10 days in your home teaching you how to hypnotize people because you’re “just curious”. I kept on getting in trouble with DUI’s, eating other people’s lunches at work, “indecent exposure”, you know, little stuff like that, so I decided to hire a member of the Jedi Church to come out and teach me the ways of The Force so I could mindtrick people and shit. I even got myself a Jedi Knight Certificate , but when I tried to use my newfound powers on a cop who had me spread-eagled against his cruiser for possession of a narcotic, he just used the Vulcan nerve pinch on me. I’m getting my money back and join the Trekkies.
