Milgram Experiment (Derren Brown)

Derren Brown reproduces the Milgram experiment on the episode, "The Heist."

In this episode, Derren Brown subconciously influences middle management buisness men and women with no previous criminal record to pull an armed robbery without ever directly mentioning the idea to them.

@GhostLinkSC I don't know where you went to highschool, but I never recieved any ethical instructions in school for any subject, except for Moral theology, and a brief disscussion in anatomy (but the anatomy discussion was so brief and shallow that is was not worth anything). I could totally understand how these people can behave this way, and it just goes to show that we need to educate people on ethics and morality.

@SGardner11 pfft what you call "trolling" is nothing compared to me and my friends.

Every game we go trolling:

Rick rolls

Game completely fucked

@MistrEgg (by replying to you, I am adding you into the legion of @ symbols)

yeah, I totally agree, it's scary at the thought of individually hunting down the post of each user. If only Youtube had a simple way to "go to original replied post" or something... >.<

@SGardner11 Well a doctor has actual authority Really they could kill you if they wanted to. and yeah a lab coat and a clipboard are powerful but the real question is why? Assumed authority is likely.

Meh my shitty laptop can hardly handle a browser without freezing up. High end gaming is way to far away. Damn shitty laptop...Anyhow enjoy.

[SGardner11]

@hinro the clip board and white coat. you'd be surpirsed how much authorty people having those two thigns have. look at doctors who tell patients to take pills left and right. we dont know if they really have an education, we go buy the coat ;-)

true, trolling is fun. starcraft 2.... play it.... fun =] merry xmas eve

[hinro]

@SGardner11 And what authority did the testers have? None. Also why would someone having told you to do something make everything you did not your own fault?

As for the endgame this is merely passing time. It's pretty fun really. Enjoy the holiday.

[SGardner11]

@hinro yeah cause you have no authority over me dude. i mean check this, there is no reason to argue about this over the internet. whats the end game? are you going to have an epiphany, freeze where you sit and agree with me? no. if you understood the power of authorty you would know what this experiment was testing. two days til xmas. merry xmas sir...
