Milgram Experiment

[iOWNme]

This is from a BBC documentary from 2009. It is similar to the Standford Prison Experiment. Only this is using one person who has the job of asking questions and shocking the person if the answer is wrong.

The series of questions goes up, as the shock value. All the way up to 450 volts.

In the end the subject finds out they were never really shocking anyone, and then they were asked if they felt any responsibility if it would have been a person getting shocked. 3 out of 12 would not finish the test once they heard the other person screaming in pain. But the screams were prerecorded.
