(Run TIme Approx. 100 min.)

Professor Zimbardo's talk takes its audience on a journey through the psychological processes of character transformation that are engaged when ordinary, good people turn into perpetrators of evil.

The abuses and tortures of Abu Ghraib prison serve as the case study for understanding such horrors not as the work of a few bad apples, but rather as the consequence of a set of identifiable Situational variables and Systemic forces of the "bad barrel" and the "bad barrel makers".

that black guy is fucking hardcore I love it

[dragonstorm83]

The black guy risks his own life to save someone. A white simply pulls a guy away from the tracks before he falls, and gets a cash reward from a millionaire stranger and TV interviews. Life is so fair.

Wesley is a hero.

whew. good thing mr. zimbardo ended on a positive note. the whole lecture was very heavy and thought-provoking. it's very painful to realize just how much violence is in the world. evil can happen to anyone at any time. but now we should focus more on the Psychology of Heroism...go Wesley!

[jonesey5168]

When the young guys dad was thanking the hero for saving his sons life I totally choked up...God Bless that Hero

[KnightOfDaFunk]

That man is a true hero

[ToryMagoo44]

As someone who has Epilepsy and knows how out of control one can be while having a seizure---thank you to this great man. May we all use more courage this 2011, not less :):)

If she was 100 feet away, the flash wouldn't have worked, the flash would work fine from a shorter distance. Apparently the light was low and she probably had a camera that wouldn't take good low-light high-ISO pictures and that's why she opted for a flash (or maybe she was just a casual photographer and always used flash).

So the key is to always focus on what's good for the world!!! YES! I knew I would learn something from this! Thank you!

*promises to resist evil 4ever* LOL.

Hitler was not evil and Mother Theresa was no hero.

Mass media brainwashing.
