Top 10 Evil Human Experiments That Were Successful

Regardless of what determines success within the field of science, there is no doubt that these

experiments

were

successful

in demonstrating one thing: the

evil

s that

human

s can commit against each other have no depth. If you know of any atrocities that belong on this list, tell us about them in the comments below. They are number 10. The Stanford Prison Experiment, we're starting with one of the most arguably famous examples on the list, although references to it as a

successful

experiment could be pushing it in the summer of 1971, a psychology professor named Philip Zimbardo would lead a study at Stanford University.

The idea was to create a prison environment in which participants would be placed in different roles, either as prisoners or guards, they were paid 15 per hour, which is roughly equivalent to 110 US dollars today. We lived in this brutal environment for a two-week period, but the experiment ended up lasting only five. You'll see why soon the idea was that the experiment would allow teachers to study the difference in the balance of power within prisons, as well as learn about antisocial behavior - a note that even led the US Navy to fund the experiment over the course of five days the prisoners were tortured by the guards, each guard became drastically more cruel and vile to their charges, they were manipulated and psychologically abused due to arbitrary tasks and regulations. which included managing when they could use the bathroom and where humiliation was regular and by the third day several prisoners suffered some nervous breakdowns and were released on the fifth day of the experiment.

Professor Christina Mosslock would visit the experiment and immediately demand that it be stopped the next day. On the day Zimbardo stopped the experiment and offered to pay all participants their full salaries, it would later be revealed that the guards only acted as they did under Zimbardo's instructions, leading to the impossibility of reproducing the experiment and an immediate nationwide review of the experiment. Ethics in Experimentation Number Nine Bowers' New Separations Peter Neubauer was a child psychiatrist who emigrated to the US in 1941 from Austria. He initially worked for Bellevue Hospital in New York. Neubauer began work on one of the most vile

experiments

of his entire career. to study the differences between twins and triplets neubauer supervised the separation of multiple sets of twins and one set of triplets supervised their growth and development into adults neubauer never revealed to the twins or their adoptive parents that they had siblings and when the twins separated.

They found out about it. This caused outrage. Numerous biographical stories were published about this. Unfortunately, several twins also took their own lives and the study's findings were sealed by Neubauer. Within Yale University until 2065. Project number eight 4.1 on March 1, 1954 in the Marshall Islands region. known as Bikini Atoll was subjected to nuclear weapons testing led by the United States government and nicknamed Castle Bravo as a result. Fallout was swept eastward contaminating 23 members of a Japanese fishing boat and the entire population of Rangalop and Uteric Atolls instead of taking responsibility for the The government organized project 4.1 with the intention of studying the victims of the Marshall Islands .

Ultimately, 239 people from the Marshall Islands were exposed, as well as 28 Americans who were stationed on one of the atolls. The effects included hair loss, skin lesions, and extreme development of cancer, as well as miscarriages and stillbirths. the US government has never attempted to compensate for these actions number 7. Burke and Hare Medical history of the 19th and 20th centuries has had a long and troubled history as scientists attempted to better understand the

human

body and various They took extreme measures to obtain subjects; one of the most notorious involved William Burke and William Hare, two men working in Edinburgh, Scotland, during a decline in legally supplied corpses.

Hare was hosting a friend who died suddenly and approached his friend Burke and the two decided to sell the body. to Robert Knox As more people were staying at the hair house, the two men took the life of a sick woman and sold the body to Knox, they continued their spree until the discovery of Margaret Dougherty, their final victim, the two were found guilty and executed and Knox was exonerated of the charges, although it remains an open question whether or not he actually knew how the bodies were recovered. project number six MK Ultra another infamous experiment MK Ultra began with the intention of developing new drugs for the CIA to use in interrogations the method in which these experiments were carried out was disgusting, as over 7,000 civilians from The US and Canada without their consent were unknowingly forced to participate, thus secretly administering psychoactive drugs, as well as the use of electroshock therapy, hypnosis, isolation, and many other forms of abuse and torture.

Anyway, that's not very good, from 1950 to 1970, it wouldn't be until 1975 when Frank Church brought these experiments to light, but since the documents were destroyed out of a knee-jerk response to the Watergate scandal in 1973, most of the Evidence is largely testimonial, however, in 2001 a large number of documents were discovered and number five was declassified. The monster study. Another disgusting experiment. The monster study was led by Wendell Johnson, a speech pathologist working at the University of Iowa. Johnson's experiment was conducted on 22 orphans with the goal. To induce stuttering among the subjects, sure enough, half of the orphans received positive encouragement during their speech therapy, while the other half were teased for their speech, even if they didn't stutter, the staff lied and pretended to begin with. that the orphans showed signs. of potential stuttering, the results did not induce stuttering as Johnson had hoped and most of the subjects became withdrawn and extremely defensive.

Who would have thought it was aversion project number four, a program developed by Dr. Aubry Levin in South Africa? The experiment was to try to cure the soldiers of their homosexuality. I want to let it sit for a while, let it simmer in his brain, since being gay was forbidden in the South African military. Levin was free to do whatever he wanted to his victims, which included chemical castration and compulsive electroshock therapy. There were a total of 900 victims of these experiments. Levin received five years in prison. I really don't want to talk about this anymore. Number three, the Tuskegee study.

Conducted between 1932 and 1972, the Tuskegee Syphilis Study was a racially motivated experiment that used exclusively black people as subjects to attempt to study syphilis and its effects. A total of 600 men were studied, of whom 399 were infected with a disease. These men were informed that the experiment would only take six months and were treated with a series of toxic solutions. including our arsenic and mercury and then given placebos, then extended to 40 years and the victims never knew the disease was one they could spread, not to mention they never knew why the experiment was being done in the first place, these men He continued to be subjected to even more drugs and spinal taps, but hey, in 1947 they discovered that penicillin was actually a pretty solid drug that worked on syphilis, so they continued anyway until Peter Buxton denounced the operation at the end. most of the subjects died as a result of the experiment and several legal cases led to a series of settlements by the government, the most famous being Pollard v. the United States, number two, the study of syphilis in Guatemala, so good that they did it twice, it's almost like there's a trend here or something perpetrated by John Charles Cutler also worked on the Tuskegee study, this study was initially meant to be done in a prison based in Indiana, but instead it was moved to Guatemala , why well, it is not officially stated, but I think we all can.

I probably assume that the subjects were exposed to syphilis, gonorrhea, and chancroid; over 5,000 people participated and 83 died during the experiment, and of course the US government has never compensated its number one victims. Unit 731, the horror is inflicted by the Imperial Japanese Army. but none as great as those inflicted by Unit 731 when the complex at Ping Fong was built. The initial intention was to build biological weapons and its test subjects were Chinese civilians trained to view their victims as non-human and who were told to refer to them as The records of the experiments that were carried out by 731 led to the death of between 200 and 300,000 people.

Some of the experiments included vivisection and poisoning, gun testing, freezing tests, syphilis testing and also some of the literal worst things I have ever had to read about. The Japanese government has not taken responsibility for this, along with numerous others. war crimes committed during World War II, and when victims asked for compensation, they were denied on the grounds that their needs were met by international peace treaties.
