New Stanford Prison Experiment Hits Netflix

The first season of the reality show based on the famous psychological experiment has been released. Viewers can watch six episodes of the project online.

The show's creators took a risk by recreating Stanford University's controversial experiment. In the original study, 30 participants were divided into two groups: prisoners and guards.

During the initial investigation, guards displayed sadistic behavior toward prisoners. The experiment was shut down after just six days due to ethical violations.

The Netflix team decided to see the project through despite the risks. The reality show is being compared to the popular project Dom-2 for its dramatic nature.
