I think the BBC replicated the Stanford Prison Experiment recently too. Not sure how they could have done that; I *think* the psych guidelines for informed consent/use of human subjects would prohibit it being replicated in the US now.

IN the US for sure.

Now even more creepy than Milgram, is later work in the 70’s where the researchers did a variant, giving real shocks to a puppy.

They wanted to remove the chance that the test subject went along because they sensed something was faked.

I’ll look up the researchers names for you if you want, but that is a true case of unethical science. Also I remember the results. Out of 20 some men and 15 or so women, only four men stopped shocking (for real) the puppy).
