    Those are really cool.

    I've studied quite a few of them in psychology at school. Milgram's experiments are pretty interesting, especially when we consider 'just how far we'll go for authority'.

    That stuff is really interesting and REALLY f*<ked up. Who ever decided that monkey head transplant was a good idea was sick and twisted, and how could someone shock a puppy!?!? They're way to cute, I could nvr hurt them. Although picturing an elephant on acid makes me giggle :grin:

    On ABC, I think, they reran the shocking people test and got basically the same results. No one acctually got shocked in their test tho, they just had people yelling as if they were being shocked, it sounded rly convincing tho.

    psychologists where pretty testy back then, since they didnt think about ethics at all. specially with those tests where they would traumatize a kid by introducing a rabbit as an unconditioned variable and then condition the baby that every time he would he the rabbit he would corelate it to a loud sound and thus frighten him.
    also in AP psychology we got to condition our classmates that was fun
