The test I'm talking about was done somewhere in the 70's or 80's or so I think.
yep, there was a vid about that test also. The guy who gave the shocks was almost crying, but still continued giving them. This is the milgram-experiment

What kind of fucking idiot would let a McDonald's employee strip search him - even if he did say he had the "police" on the phone? :icon27:
The caller and the manager should be punished for it, but anybody that retarded was pretty much asking for it to happen - if not at a McDonalds, then at a grocery store, while drunk at a party, at a bus station... How do people like that survive in this world long enough to buy their own food?

you take normal human beings, and put them in role playing situations, and remove responsibility by letting them believe your an authority figure.
There's this famous test where a person had to push a button to deliver a shock to a person if that person gave a wrong answer to a question wrong. Voltage would be increased after every shock.
Ofcourse it was all fake, but the person pushing the button didn't know this. It's interesting to see how this person would push the button simply because he was told to.
