Milgram Experiments

Does anyone know where I can find video of the Milgram experiments? I don't know why I'm obsessed with this tonight, I'm not teaching the Holocaust until next semester.

 

I've tried Youtube, but all I can find is reenactments. I'd prefer the original tapes made by Milgram.  The reenactments don't have the same power.

 

And if you have no idea what I'm talking about, go read this and prepare to be horrified. "I was just following orders"

Oh my goodness!!! I'm going to be horrified by this for a very long time now. This is just... how can I never have heard about this? I'm usually good at finding out about messed up stuff people do to each other.

 

 

This also reminds me of the film "The Wave", where a teacher does an experiment on a group of kids in his school to prove to them how easy it is to be led and, even more importantly, misled. I don't know if anyone has ever seen this, but it's one of those films they show in every 8th grade history class in Norway. http://imdb.com/title/tt0083316/
