Hi everyone

In relation to today's movie "The Experiment", I thought it was very interesting to see how even men who volunteer their time can become corrupt with power just simply because they were told to act like authoritative figures.

The movie however I know was based on an actual experiment called the "Stanford prison experiment", the experiment was i believe ended early due to the cruelty of the men portraying as guards.

Below is an article on the actual experiment, if anyone was interested you should check it out.
