It is known that scientist can sometimes be cruel during their research, to use human and animals as lab rats. Despite frequent attack on their methods, work of scientists was never stopped. Maybe its luck, but today we would not know what we know and have what we have.
Imagine that you registered as a volunteer for an experiment, and when you appear at the research center you find out that you have to kill an innocent person. You decline, but researchers insist on the fact that experiment demands it. Will you say yes?
Sometimes we are not aware what people are capable of doing to test certain scientific assumptions. Experiments in which certain bizarre assumptions are tested or experiments that use unusual methods are not part of the fact, they occur even today.
