It's called entertainment..
People that go up onto a stage to be 'hypnotized' do so to be entertainers.. where they can do things out of their norm, hiding behind the guise of hypnosis.
Nobody can be placed in hypnosis to the required depth to do those things by a 1, 2, 3 snap of the fingers.. and even when someone is in a cataleptic state, it isn't likely they would follow that command.
Contrary to popular belief, hypnosis doesn't create robots..
