Bada being, baddaboo.

Have you ever heard of the Russian sleep experiment?

It's a fake fictional story.

It's a creepy pasta where five subjects, they're prisoners of war.

They're given the option.

You can take part in our sleep study where you will be awake for 30 full days.

You don't get an inkling of sleep for 30 days, a month. And if you survive,

if you make it to the end, you can be free. We're not going to hold you prison anymore. You can

walk out of here and nobody is going to hurt you. It's a singular month in exchange for the rest of

your life. Why would you not take it? The experimenters, the researchers,

they develop this special gas that's going to prevent the subjects from falling asleep.

And the first five days, everything goes well. They hardly complain. They're like,

this is the best thing ever. We're going to be free in 25 days. After the first five days,

the subjects start exhibiting severe paranoia.

They stop talking to each other.

Their only companions in the entire study, they turn on each other.

They start whispering into the microphones for their researchers.

They believe if they turn on their fellow subjects, they can win the trust of the experimenters

that are testing on them and guarantee their freedom.

Nine days in, one of the subjects does not stop screaming for three hours straight.

He is screaming until he tears his vocal cords.

And long story short, by the halfway mark, all of the windows that the experimenters are looking into, they're covered in feces.
