Pretty interesting. I've heard of that experiment before. Its crazy how everyone blindly continues. I wanna say I would stop the test, but I think everyone wants to say that.

Maybe the type of person who would want to stop the test would be the type of person who wouldn't volunteer in the first place, on the grounds that they felt shocking people was wrong.

It seems as though the people didn't know it was going to be that painful until the test began.
It's rather thought provoking. As SGTNAPALM said, I probably wouldn't want to volunteer in the first place if it was made apparent it would involve causing pain to others.
Heh, I don't even have to watch the video to know it's about Milgram.
It really is fascinating, and a little bit scary. This is why I love the human mind, though.
So everyone is a tool?
Derren Brown reproduced the Milgram experiment once, if you want to see video footage of something like it:
