Subliminal messaging on TV

Recommended Posts

The girlfriend and I were watching a recorded episode of Tosh.O last night and I noticed something odd, a quick rewind and frame by frame later, and it was some sort of picture of skin (with hair) and some other objects on them.

A brief google showed that it's been on several episodes (different parts of the body)

Anyone else notice these? Are they even legal?

Was this in the show content, or in the ads? I don't think it is illegal in the show itself, but many countries ban it outright in advertisements.

An interesting book to read on the subject is "Subliminal Seduction". It's several decades old, but the principles still apply to the human mind.

I had a couple classes in college with Dr. Jack, who took that book 'apart' page by page showing the whole thing was much to do about nothing.

Dr. Jack even did a debate with the books author that I attended well after graduation, blew hole in every one of his 'theories' and examples...basically embarrassed the old d00d off the stage.

Dr Jack was an interesting Prof & cool guy...he started one of the 1st hang glider schools in the world way back when.
He found out I was a jumper and signed up for the FJC where I was teaching when I was in college...easy A for me! :ph34r:
