College Students Became Monsters in 6 Days - The Stanford Prison ExperimentAdded:
In 1970, Stanford University created a fake prison in their basement. They randomly picked college students to be guards or prisoners. It was supposed to last 2 weeks. Within hours, the guards began humiliating the prisoners. They forced them to do push-ups, strip naked, clean toilets with their bare hands. By day two, prisoners were having mental breakdowns. By day six, the guards were using psychological torture. The lead researcher had to shut it down after just 6 days. Normal students had become monsters in less than a week. All it took was a uniform and permission.
