According to a Dank Net YouTube posted on June 27, 2019, Bob Lazar underwent hypnosis to recover memories about his time at Area 51. This was done through George Knapp’s recommendation in August 1989.
Some details were unclear to Bob; what he did there, precise dates, almost like there was a mental block stopping him from recalling the events. Luckily for ‘good old George Knapp* he had a solution to this problem - hypnosis. In August of ‘89, after a successful hypnosis session, Bob was able to recall many specific details that were once hiding away in the dark reaches of his mind. Details of his briefing started to come forth. Bob was hired to replace another scientist that died in a small-yield nuclear blast while working on a UFO engine. The briefing also contained information on the spacecraft’s origins, and the beings who built it.
(*The narrator mockingly pronounces Knapp’s last name Kay-nap” throughout the video.)
Lately I have been actively questioning the use of hypnosis, especially the reliability of hypnotically enhanced memory. Dank Net seems to think the hypnosis session was as fake as the polygraph tests that followed, and what he’s dug up on Lazar casts doubt on his veracity. The mysterious death of his first wife; bigamy; marrying his 2nd wife twice under 2 different names; not one but TWO brothels. And all of this before the S4/Area 51 stuff. If Lazar is not the total fraud that Dank Net’s data makes him out to be, the fact that his recall of the “briefing” that forms the backbone of his whole story is enhanced through hypnosis adds a whole other layer of WTF to a case overwhelmed with WTF.
