Arguments In The 1920's

American Researchers in the late 1920s conducted an experiment the goal of this experiment was to keep five people awake for thirty days using a new gas stimulant. The test subjects were put into a sealed chamber. The researchers carefully watched the subject’s oxygen levels to make sure the gas did not kill them.

The chamber had books and beds to sleep on but no sheets or covers only the mattress, the chambers had running water and bathrooms, and there was dried food to last all five subjects for the time of the experiment. The test subjects were captured enemy military. The subjects were fine for the first five days. The subjects did not complain. Their dialogs and behaviors were monitored and the researchers observed that the subjects began to open up to one another about there past. The subject’s
One of the researchers died because one subject strangled him and tore his throat out. Another had the artery in his leg severed by one of the subject’s teeth. A soldier was ordered to enter and committed suicide. While resisting one of the subjects ruptured his spleen and died. The researchers tried to sedate him but it did not faze him. The other three test subjects were restrained and moved to a medical facility, all they did was beg for the stimulant gas. The most injured subject had ripped his digestive tract out and placed it all around the chamber he was taken to the operating table. In the process of preparing the subject to have his organs placed back within his body he was unfazed by the sedation attempts. He resisted and the tore through all the restraints and finally was put under. Right when his eyes closed he died. In the autopsy it showed that he had more than five times the normal blood oxygen level of a normal
