Different country and they changed the experiment.

Do it in GER, UK or US, and I promise you they findings will not much vary. All it takes is a skilled manipulator.

Sure i'll get my international team of researchers right on it. :)

I would much rather have seen it with the same test in the same country at least. Changing both tosses too many variables into the mix.

The milgram experiment has been repeated multiple times, in a variety of locations, with varying degrees of similar results. For an experiment that was said to be unrepeatable, it sure gets done a lot.

I had a good article stored somewhere on the implications of the milgram experiment, and just not the typical "nazis followed orders" interpretation of it. IT was much deeper and much more profound that simple summary. If I find it, I'll post it up.
