This video starts off slow but it is very interesting. Atleast I was interested. What are your takes on it?

Classic example of why there are now boards and Humanity standards for all Psychological testing. all three of my Psychology texts from an introductory course listed this experiment as one of the most inhumane on record, which, considering the history of early experimentation, is quite the feat. supposedly some of these guys, particularly the prisoners, had to go into therapy, even decades later, from this "test."
