Zach Pinson shocks Milgram

Zach Pinson poses at the original apparatus used by Stanley Milgram in his famous obedience research. The device currently resides at the University of Akron. Zach has just "pushed" the last button on the machine and thus "shocked" the learner at the highest intensity (just as 66% of Milgram's subjects did),

Milgram's apparatus was on display at the 25th annual meeting of the Association for Psychological Science held in Washington, DC.
