Just kidding...Honestly, Milgram was an experimental psychologists that persuaded 37 subjects to painfully, even lethally, shock strangers - an electric chair type set-up. He was basically studying the obedience of humans to authority figures. Needless to say, this experiment was the basis of many ethics in research discussions. Have fun, Joel
