Using self-hypnosis Henri Bource  convinced himself – and many close friends – he was not handicapped.  One friend criticized him for parking in a ‘disabled persons’ parking place!  With an artificial leg, from the knee joint down, he walked with a stiff ankle.  Soon after his ‘accident’ (he never used the term shark attack) he considered joining the Australian army – as a commando.  So powerful is hypnosis.
