He did the whole experiment hoping he wasn't the only one with his negative feelings towards his female scientist colleagues, and wound up scientifically proving that he is indeed the only one there with those thoughts. Pretty much proved that he was the monkey, and not them. Though I doubt even monkeys would react the way he would've thought.

I find it rather ironic how Santiago, who was so obsessed with getting results, was completely blind to the actual results the study yielded, which are actually pretty profound. All of these people were from completely different backgrounds, different culture, and yet, given the chance, they were all able to form strong connections and experienced incredible self discovery. How is this experience anything but an intense reminder of how powerful relationships truly are? How are these results a failure? Santiago was just so occupied with his proving his hypothesis that he forgot that disproving your hypothesis is just as meaningful in science, completely missing the incredibly moving results his research ultimately yielded despite his interference

I think the most interesting part of this is was the nature of communication and how pivotal It is in our society, there were problems with stealing food and problems with early distrust and mild aggression However communication was the key difference. I would be interested in a (more humane, cause wtf) study where there is a language barrier. What the nature of humans are when we can't communicate. Do we create new methods, do we teach what we know to each other, or would we be aggressive, hormonal monkeys?
What did homedude think was going to happen if his experiment worked? "Oh, yes, I tricked all these people to come on a raft with me for 100 days under false pretenses, and half of them murdered and violated the other half, just like I planned. Where's my award?" And that's even without considering that he himself willingly got onto a murder raft that he actively believed and attempted to make into a murder raft.

You’d have to add unrealistic elements like make the researcher capable of killing everyone themself, introducing artificial distrust, etc.

I think making the raft so small and existence so communal was probably one of the main reasons why his experiment failed. Not that it would have devolved into what he was hoping for anyway, but making it easier to have privacy and where secrets could grow _may_ have added some tension or spite amongst the group. But mostly it's just hilarious how he attempted to get everyone to hate each other and he only succeeded in making them all hate him.

no it would've turned out completely differently like he'd wanted, like you said it was communal, even their time to destress themselves in bed, was with other people, they were never actually alone, they never had the ability to atomize themselves from the group, because in the physical reality they were always connected to the group and it wasn't deniable, you cannot deny that on a long voyage with set food everyone MUST work together to ensure survival happens, they had to work together, Santiago though gave himself a lot of time to be away from the group and stew in his own thoughts, all the while accepting to himself that he was never a part of the group, he felt an outsider which is why he became so paranoid I'd guess.

Santiago seems to be someone who was aware enough to see his own flaws, but instead of improving them, he projected them on everyone. You get a snapshot of his character from the choices he made. Like he assumed giving women important jobs will upset the men, because he was sexist. He thought having a priest there would make the men more aggressive, which says he was likely an edgy atheist. He also outed himself as a city boy with no experience hunting by his overblown reaction to the shark incident. He reminds me of a guy I knew in college.

But at the same time, it seems he was shitty researcher. Every psychologist, drill sgt. or a school teacher worth their salt would have told him that having a common enemy would unite the group. And that having clearly established roles, hierarchy would release the tensions instead of creating them.
This has to be the most (unintentionally) wholesome experiment ever done. All I learned is that, in a vacuum, humans have more of a capacity to love, than to hate.
Santiago: I will make a woman captain, that will surely make the men revolt. Also Santiago: How dare that woman tell me what to do!?

You're right though, he would have 100% been the one to have been thrown overboard in that case.

If I ever feel like humanity is cruel and hopeless, I'll think back on this. Some dude put a bunch of people on a boat so they would kill and r-word each other, but instead, they all became life-long best friends.
Santiago was a textbook narcissist. Especially the fact that the abuse survivor felt his behaviour was familiar. Just...totally disconnected from reality, thinking he's the shit and that he knows everything. He knows that if *he* were put in this situation, he would devolve (as he proved) and therefore everyone else would/should act that way. Literally couldn't handle the reality that he was wrong, and later resorted to other means of getting attention: Pouting. Unfortunately, I have a few family members who act the same way. I would avoid them completely if they weren't financing me through school.

Maybe his assumption was that these would be preformed crews of career sailors, often majority male, with clear leadership hierarchies, that are likely from a similar background. Which is not entirely accurate historically, but he wasn't a historian. I think ultimately his experiment proved that a more random collection of people from different backgrounds, with limited nautical experience, given a common goal can still unite as a crew. Which is still not anything particularly groundbreaking, but I guess it still makes an interesting experiment.

As a person fascinated with science and psychology, it frustrates me to no end that Santiago is unable to comprehend that results that don’t align with the hypothesis are not bad or wrong and can still provide incredibly valuable insight. Unexpected results are still results and are still useful. I think this study is a testament of the beauty of human relationships and further exemplifies that we are an incredibly social species (regardless of the poor construction and ethical violations resulting in very insufficient empirical results with basically no generalizability). The dichotomy of Santiago frantically scribbling his “findings” into his notebook like a madman, convinced everyone on ship is about to violently attack each other, while people are working through trauma with each other and gaining new positive perspectives on life is just so funny. The entire story feels like it’s fiction, but the fact it’s real makes it all the more hilarious. Thank you for sharing, Wendigoon :)

@@PopcornMax179 To create a situation actually comparable to the monkey jammed in a cage, yes. And they'd need to be stuffed into a prison cell instead of on a boat. Actually, we HAVE that situation, in real prisons, except we do our damnedest to keep them gender segregated since we know what happens when we don't. We get similar problems when we do, but usually not as badly. And yes, we get a lot of violence, although it's not clear if we're getting a lot of violence because we're stuffing (not entirely random) people into cages or because the people we stuff into these cages are disproportionately those already likely to use violence, since having already used violence to get your way is one of the things we'll stuff you in the cage for. It also occurs to me that many monkey species are a LOT more violent than humans are to begin with. If you compare the amount of violence that the group leaders among chimps carry out to the amount of violence that leaders of small groups of humans carry out, chimps are WAY more violent than most humans. For at least the last 50 000 years, since modern linguistic capabilities arose in humans, the kind of violence that makes a chimp the absolute master of the band of chimps has, among humans, been an excellent way to get murdered in your sleep by a small group of betas who are angry at how you treat them and theirs, and know how to walk quietly while carrying large rocks.
I think the best thing about this experiment was that in trying to prove how violent and animalistic humans are, Santiago only proved how good and social humans can be, and how they can form friendships even through hardship and when we’re left alone, we only seek connection.

the irony that Santiago’s goal was to prove that humans are like animals, just to have the experiment show that humans are not animals! It’s honestly kind of beautiful that people from all over the world with different backgrounds and beliefs could get along so well and become so close!

Honestly it looks like they did act like animals- *bonobos* instead of chimps, just not quite as much boning.

The purpose of experimentation is to observe a theory being tested and analyze the result. It's more like 'what happens if?', not 'how do I make X happen?' Unless you have a really good understanding of how to make X happen. Imagine mixing a couple colors, discovering a new color, naming it and mixing it a few times to be sure you know how to recreate it vs. seeing something that is a color you like and deciding you're just gonna mix every color with blue until you get the color you want, which is orange...
