The Volunteers Who Let Science Shock Them
What does it take to generate the data that quietly protects billions of strangers? This episode explores the uncomfortable legacy of scientific self-experimentation — from Charles Dalziel's let-go threshold research, where volunteers were shocked until they physically couldn't release a conductor, to John Stapp's 46-G rocket sled rides and Barry Marshall's self-infection with ulcer-causing bacteria. We examine what these acts have in common, where heroism ends and recklessness begins, and what they reveal about how science actually progresses. Episode 5126 — myweirdprompts.com/n/5126…
