These experiments may have been unethical (although personally I think they were not), but at least they were also memorable, influential, an useful. Sorry, one of my keys isn't working.

i think one of the best parts of this study is that a bunch of psychologists were surveyed and asked what % of subjects would deliver the max shock. they guessed something very small, like 1 in 1000. the real number was like 45%. i'm sure i have every detail wrong, but i'm too lazy to fix it.
