M5 vs. M7 Myths

Ғылым және технология

In this Ask Adam, Tested member Tommy Stevens asks, "With Kari, Grant, and Tory being the second 'team,' how often did their myth excite you more than the one you were filming? And if it was very often, how much involvement or input did you have in their myth, if any?" Thank you, Tommy, for your question and support!

    Women like a certain shade of purple the most. I can't tell yours because I'm seeing it through tech, but it does not look like the lighter purple they like. I'm male so I do not see the appeal. I like mixes of dark royal blue, golden shiny yellow, blood red. Like when coloring Warframe frames, haha.

    How to manufacture emotional stakes: 1) A few weeks before hand, get Jamie to show off a glass trinket that he just inherited from XYZ and is "really important to him." 2) Get Kari, Grant, and Tory to go into Jamie's office to steal the $20. 3) On one occasion, have the glass trinket 'fall' and break. 4) Test them before they can tell Jamie, but test them about the trinket, instead of the money. Bonus points if you make sure that the next person to go into Jamie's office sees the 'evidence of the crime' and needs to be questioned on what they know.

    One unethical way is to inflict “pain” in the event of a “fail”, so if the person is caught in a lie, they have to smell something horrible, get a shock (Adam would probably never want the prank shock he got from the “ark” ever again), do something that induces sickness (being spun around, eat something nasty), or suffer isolation. There’s often a question in terms of study approvals of whether or not it’s possible for people to legitimately consent (particularly if it’s their job) and there often real dangers associated even with seemingly benign punishments-such as PTSD and anxiety. This is why we will almost certainly never be able to do Milgrim’s studies again.

    Fun story about the time I got a lie detector test for a job. It was for driving an armored car and as you can imagine we would be handling a lot of money so they had this test done. During the test the administrator repeatedly asked me if I had ever been arrested. He asked me other questions like had I stolen things and I ever done drugs and I ever driven drunk? The answer is unequivocally no but he kept asking me if I had ever been arrested. For the record I have never even come close. When he finished the test and un- hooked everything, he asked; " I have your background check right here and it doesn't show anything but have you ever been arrested?" I told him no, why? He said that every time he asked me that question my heart rate would jump. I'm not going to lie I'm a pretty upstanding person I work in security now, And I told him that even the thought of that was terrifying to me. But, It occurred to me to ask if the mere thought of one of the things he was asking is enough to make your heart rate spike out of fear, Couldn't that happen to anyone for any question based on personal fears and wouldn't that basically invalidate the test? He gave me a really dirty look and never said another word to me as he left. Tl;dr Adam is completely correct the tests are shite.

    Just watched this. It's so great to hear you talk about the show. I think why the show was so good was the personalities of everyone envolved . Also you can tell how much passion and real reactions everyone had toward each project. I always loved how Jamie would be pleased with the results and you Adam were just full blown enthusiastic of the result. Two very different personalities that was interesting to see how you guys would react to the outcome of a myth. Oh also Adam can you have on tested like Tori or Kerri (hoped I spelled the names correct) for one episode each. It doesn't matter what it is we will watch. And can talk about things that were on the show.

    @@cenciende9401 Why the animosity? It's just a measuring system, you act like it killed your father and had its way with your mother. I would guess based on the tone of your post that you think the US doesn't adopt metric out of some sort of obstinate national pride, that isn't at all the case. There's very good practical reas mon why the US still uses imperial for everyday use, it would cost trillions to reconfigure the entire country for metric, just changing all the signs on the tens of thousands of miles of Interstate would have an astronomical price tag, let alone all of industry, all the factories, machines etc. Almost everything that requires or benefits from using metric in the US does so anyways, mainly scientific fields. Even the imperial units are based on metric standards as well. But for things like construction it's just not enough of a benefit to offset the massive costs of reconfiguring an entire industry.

    @@cenciende9401 First "Americidumb Units" is Insulting. Stop talking your intelligence is showing. Your are a hater. The English imperial system is a more accurate and less confusing then the metric system. There are plenty of examples of this. You are just not used to it and probably not smart enough to know a good thing when you see it. You drink a cup of coffee, not a liter of coffee. not .35L of coffee either. That is a dumb measurement system. A cup is 8 Oz. 1 Ounce is the average volume of liquid a person can swallow in one gulp. Didn't know that did you. Lastly you sound like a bigot that hates Americans. "B I G O T" Look it up. America is a Enormous country. It well NEVER be metric. The metric system used to be defined by the imperial English system when is was invented in France. Unfortunately Metric lovers got it reversed and now defined by the metric system, So The imperial system is really self defined by the imperial system. Both systems are arbitrary and not absolute. Only the Kelvin scale is absolute and makes sense but it has too few graduations and stops at a weird prime number 273. Should of been a 0 to 1000 degree scale..

    For the lie detector emotional component, I would have had a series of questions in which one person (possibly you) would know the answers. Their goal was to lie about some of them that you select. For every lie they could not get away with, they would have to hold their hand in a box. Inside that box...something creepy that they are terrified of. That way, they know if they don't succeed in that lie, they will have to do something they absolutely are terrified of.
