This is where the phrase "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should." comes into play.
Nowadays, that could be said of AIs development

@@user-unos111 they're scientists.. if their track record is anything to go by.. we literally have nothing to worry about
You’d think a scientist would realize the simple fact that dolphin vocal structures couldn’t form human sounds.
history seems to repeat itself in that regard huh, thought we learnt this when it came to apes and dogs
You would.... wouldn't you. You are overestimating some people.
This is when you have high intelligence but zero wisdom
Considering parrots have a syrinx and not a larynx and yet can produce human sounds, it wasn’t THAT big of leap. They just do it in a different way.
You ever hear someone say "they're so smart, they're stupid" about a genius?
Dude was high on acid. He wasn't thinking straight
I love that the seal mimicking speech has the voice of a blustery old Englishman! That is just so fitting for some reason.
I can hear the pipe in his mouth and his big old man whiskers XD
Well ya because he was mimicking an old English men
It made me laugh
Reminds me of Vernon dursley. Mustache and all.
@@KpopZuko "Harry! GET OVER HERE!!!" (btw, I'm an ATLA fan too)
I feel like we should create a language kinda like morse code for dolphins. See if we could actually have a conversation with one. I hate it when I see people say, "look my animal can talk." When in reality the defintion of talk is not to just make a noise that sounds like a word. But to give information, express Ideas and feelings with words. It's litteraly the defintion, so they aren't talking at all.
At this point we'd have a more riveting conversation with an A.I.
By that definition, there are animals that can talk. Sure a lot of it is copying, without knowing what they're saying, because they get a positive response. But I know of a parrot that would say "this empty", while holding the feeding cup, to communicate that they want food. They are expressing a need with words, so by what you said that qualifies as talking right?
How about dogs or cats that use those word buttons? I'm a bit skeptical about it, but it often does look like they use it to convey a need or idea. They're not.. speaking though.. they press a button to make the sound 🤔
An animal making noises is its way of communicating so yeah in a way they're talking
I'm your 300th liker here & bye.
probably because the goal was always get funding, and have sex with interns. Why do people have this strange reverence for scientists?

Man, the idea where putting two dolphins in separate tanks yet still had a way to communicate to each other to learn their language could of been way more ground breaking than law breaking.
The fact that Lilly got funded over the guy who suggested trying to understand actual dolphin communication pretty much describes the 60's to a tee. That must have been some crazy good acid. 😂
Lilly shared his acid with everyone but George Bateson ig
"With their high intelligence he figured that if he could find some way to communicate with dolphins that could lead us to find a way to talk to aliens."
Making that leap while high asf must've been SUPER EASY barely an inconvenience.
That's not as far a leap as one might thing. It's basically the idea that how do you communicate with something that has intelligence not to different from your own, but at the same time evolved in an entirely different environment, and biology.
Pitch meeting refs are tight!
I see what reference you did 😏
taking acid and talking to dolphins is tight!
@@BigTuk exactly, it's just the first stepping stone. You're presented with a language that evolved completely outside of human languages and your job is to figure out what they're saying. This experiment just wasn't the right way to go about it. But I remember hearing about an experiment using AI to decode the squeaks of mice.
The point you brought up about mimicry is what really floors me about this. Millions of dollars, probably years of work, and no one was like "Hey... How do we know he understands?"
Acid must be a heck of a drug.
it is, and it only has business in my body and the psychological field of science
Casual wasn't capping. *Them 60's were one hell of a time.* X__X
Let's just hope it never gets legalized again. Like Jurassic Park it was with the "best intentions" and "greater good." 2 massive red flags.
That's psychiatry in a nutshell.
@@zionleach3001 I agree with the red flags you identified; "for the greater good" is a blank check that can go dangerously unexamined. However, I don't think the drugs were anywhere near the main problem here. I'm much more concerned with the research ethics. Especially when psychedelics show great promise for the treatment of various mental health problems.
It's so bizarre that they never questioned if a dolphin could physically make English word sounds. My dog knows what several words mean, but it would never occur to me that I could get her to actually speak back.
One word: Drugs
They never tried teaching them Morse code? Or gave them different buttons to press that said different words?
I can't believe you and every liker thinks thats true
It is the way that people treat animals that truly show how cruel we can be. These poor dolphins. They asked for none of this. Used abused and discarded. With committing suicide as the only option to escape this nightmare. Not even in the worst horror movies could we describe even a fraction of what is done to animals in the name of science.
Just look up the pit of despair...
There's a reason I very much dislike a majority of human beings. Especially the ones trying to justify shit like that for "science"

That ain't fair. How come people tried to capitalise on Margaret's situation by presenting her as a zoophile even though all the stuff she did was solely for the experiment alone. Meanwhile, the acid tripping old geezer who had all the recognition from her efforts and dedication never got as much public backlash as she did.
Yeah... For the experiment...😐
Take it from me, people will unjustly capitalize on any situation if it's weird/gross/vulgar enough. This relationship has been sensationalized to death. MHL was dealing with Peter's sexual urges in a perfectly logical way, for a dolphin. Her problem was she couldn't keep up with teaching him English as fast as he would have liked it! I've had this problem with dolphins too: they do not suffer boredom gladly!
Because as far as we know, no one forced her to have sex with a Dolphin. And if that was her answer to the "problem", then it does indeed make her a zoophile by action if not attraction.
Because women are easy targets
Margaret who?
I know this is a weird take, but I super appreciate the compassion you showed the young woman and the dolphin in this.
She's not young anymore
@Secret I'm guessing that's a rick roll link but I am way too much of a coward to find out
Seconded. It's easy to hop on the sensationalist bandwagon and talk shit about a situation for clout. It's another thing to model journalistic integrity and portray the people in a story as complex individuals who are usually just doing their best.

shit man, I'd be questioning my sanity just seeing an oarfish or some shit, then you hear a goddamn mustached seal talking?
There was also a project for animals to learn human speech from a beluga whale. In fact this beluga spoke an uncanny human voice so well that a scientist once went to his tank and heard Get Out multiple times. Before leaving he talked to the observing scientists on why they said to get off but they said the beluga whale said it. There is an audio out on the internet of the beluga speaking. Honestly amazing stuff. Thanks science!
That's not the entire story.
The entire story was that they discovered this because the director of the tank cleaning crew always only said "Get out" or "Out".
Using what is essentially an underwater speaker.
Can you guess how they figured out the beluga learnt? Exactly, a diver exited the tank, thinking bossman told him to get out.
This happened multiple times until they noticed the Beluga saying it
Video suggestion: It would be awesome if you could do a mention if you could do a video mentioning Zalim the Tiger, a tiger who successfully raised his two daughters after the death of their mother, and was so protective of them that he even turned down mating with other females in order to make sure they were safe.

Yeah, but I miss the hood name and the low budget camera phone resolution and choppy 5th grade camera cuts. The only thing remaining that's original is the iphone ear buds mic holding. It's amazing the amount of subs and only recently changing to be a bit more professional. I'd praise it, but I appreciated the save every penny budget.
I started crying at 5:50. It sounded like a disgruntled Scottish man yelling at someone 😂
Atrocity Guide did a video on the experiment too and she found interviews from other people who worked with Lilly on this experiment. They were ALL servicing those dolphins!!!
Interesting
I don't remember that from that video. Not at all. Peter Dolphin and Margaret shared a special bond, she said so. Dolphins are capable of far greater emotional investment than "civilized" humans. I've had one kill herself on me; I was 1,500 miles away, and a dolphin nightmare left me gasping for breath. That's entanglement you don't ordinarily have with other humans.
They also sexually assaulted them. Bestiality at its worst
To be fair though, decoding the language of another intelligent species that lives on earth is still a reasonable practice run for decoding an alien language, even though this particular experiment was a mess lol
At least we now know that giving aliens drugs and jacking them off won’t help them understand English
Not that that’ll stop some people from trying
I do agree.
Ya but that's not what they did 😂That wasn't even really the plan
Speaking as a believer in science, there are some experiments and studies where even I think "Come on guys, what the fuck?"
This channel deserves a lot more attention - it's such an excellent blend of education and comedy and I worship the shit out of it 🥰

We could literally teach dolphins morse under water. The blowhole to English path was chosen because of the alien aspect
I still feel like one could realize that communicating with another species in morse would still work better than this.
“You can do better Peter” SHUT UP MARGRET HES TRYING HIS GOD DAMN BEST 😭😭
Fun Fact: Eventually Dr. Lily was tripping balls so hard that even his hallucinated alien contacts were telling him to quit the drugs.
How funny would it be if those aliens weren't hallucinations (at least that one time) and just wanted him to stop acting crazy
Yeah... sort of like Whitley Strieber saying people "on the other side" are getting sick of him crossing over.
Fun fact: the guy who "had relations" with Dolly is named Malcolm Brenner. The only reason I know that is because he is an alum from the college I attended. He even has a number like Kevin Bacon, but it's called the Dolphin Number. Did I mention that I hate knowing this?
We talked about this experiment in my Psychology classes because it happened next door in the USVI. Too bad brain bleach isn't an actual thing (how did this happen twice?)
That's embarrassing. The same dude who tried to eff his family dog as a teenager. He's a POS in my opinion.

thanks i hate it
When I was interviewing for grad school I had an interview with a doctor named Malcolm Brenner who very insistently included his middle name. I googled him to learn about his work before I talked to him and that was the first time I found out about the dolphin guy and understood why the person I interviewed with made sure to include his middle name.

There's one detail I just noticed now. Casual literally said LSD in so many ways that no one noticed. He said certain phrases that if you abbreviated, would spell LSD and I bet my left sack that it was 100% intentional.
We have
-The actual meaning (LySergic Acid Diethylamide)
-Little Slice of Delight
-Lovely Saturday Drive
-Little Sense of Direction
-Light Seasoning of Dope
All of these are things he said in the video and they all can be shortened to spell out LSD. I bet it was intentional.
[Edit 11 months later: I forgot "Little Surprise Dose" as the replies mentioned, my bad.]
Omg I didn't pick up on that. Thank you so much

John c. lily was so high on acid that he started to believe that there was an alien council seeking to help him in his mission to teach dolphins english, and after some time the alien council that he hallucinated started to say that he was using too much acid, his own acid induced hallucinations wanted him to stop taking acid.

this was a really sad video, holy cow. do you think in the future (or here if you still want to) you could add citations or something? it would be really helpful both for cementing your facts and also for helping folks who want to explore your sources more of themselves
I feel so bad for (almost) everyone involved.
Margaret deserved better than to have her legacy be "The woman who jacked off a dolphin" since honestly I feel like the fact that a dolphin basically pair-bonded with a human woman is the most interesting aspect of psychology we got out of this (Edit, the fact that lily's work also taught us more about dolphins in general is also pretty neat). And if it weren't for this legacy she probably would've been a much more successful scientist today than John Lily ever was.
Peter deserved better than to be abandoned and left in shitty conditions while ALSO being heartbroken to the point that killing himself was better than living whatever hell he was thrown into (And really the cruelty towards dolphins IN GENERAL is pathetic considering they're supposedly "The smartest things that aren't people". Like bro, treat them better even if they're in captivity.)
Greg Bateson deserved better than being stuck in an experiment that was guaranteed to fail from the start and watch this whole circus play out, and also the fact that he probably couldn't even get his "what if we learned Dolphin instead" experiment because of how completely done any backers were with the whole prospect.
John Lily is the sole reason I say "almost" everyone, because honestly he deserves literally all the shit we can pile on him even if he did better later on.
He did a lot of shitty things but all anyone will remember is "haha pp" part. Maybe we should leave animals alone for the next couple hundred years and focus on studying animal behaviours in ourselves first (and hopefully getting some self-awareness and understanding of what is human consciousness and what is animal instincts, and learn to keep them in check)
I still would've quit if somebody told me to jack off a dolphin. Knowing that, I hope she attempted to quit or thought about quiting but then didn't because she's stuck on an island. I hope she did try to get off that island. But I guess I wasn't there so who knows
You fail to realize each and every person was committed until it was too late each and every person did what they wanted and pleased every person involved is weird as shit Margaret the most cause she beat off a dolphin for her scientific research no one made her do that
@@jayswrld666 no proof, but the men could of pressured her as a woman to do instead of “everyone’s chore”. We probably don’t know all the details.
Fortunately we won’t leave animals alone. Yes, there has been some shitty and shady experiments, but most of animal experiments are significantly beneficial to human nature. These experiments found cures for diseases, mental conditions, and even improved human health expectancy. Said experiments even allowed a great advance in technology. No, we will not stop these experiments, we must all strive to evolve and improve 😊👍🏿

I've heard this story, really glad you covered it. But as to Lilly's experimentations in deprivation tanks, the movie "Altered States" might interest you if you find that.. interesting.
Also I need to mention that during the experiment most of the time he was in the sensory deprivation tank on acid. He did this to talk to psychic aliens who would give him advice during the experiment. I could not make that up even if I tried.

I wonder did Margaret learn about his death.... Plus I wonder how the news learned about this, as I would assume all the people involved would want this situation swept under the rug as cleanly as possible 😂
I believe she did, according to an interview she did in 2014, Lilly called her himself to tell her and “I wasn’t terribly unhappy about it,” explains Lovatt, 50 years on. “I was more unhappy about him being in those conditions [at the Miami lab] than not being at all. Nobody was going to bother Peter, he wasn’t going to hurt, he wasn’t going to be unhappy, he was just gone. And that was OK. Odd, but that’s how it was.” Tho she and her husband did move into dolphin house.

I LOVE your narration....brilliant and educational.
They shoulda came up with their own language in clicks, squeaks, and whistles. They could have easily used something to make those types of noises, although it wouldn't be directly from the person. If given enough context, I think the dolphins could have learned it as long as they created a well formed, thought out, limited vocabulary language.
That's asking a lot from the 1960s and a man who was higher than the dolphins themselves.
@@Foogi9000 Yeah man, unfortunately you got a strong point and probably an explanation for why not.

I love this video because its perfectly mixes your humor and knowledge in a way that adults get the sexual ramifications but little kids don't so the whole family can enjoy your content and not feel left out or robbed in some way good shyt!❤️❤️❤️❤️
@the hevy No but kids still watch him and I assume aren't bothered by the cursing
The censorship is just so he doesn't get demonetized it's not for kids Lol
Great story, there's a million more like this to be told.
I hope this guy makes a lot more videos like this.
Entertaining and disturbing at the same time.
I watched so many of these videos more than twice waiting on you to make more. Even the ones I couldn't really hear you. I'm waiting on more after the new ones
4:35 give the dolphin credit for using the water surface as a medium of articulation... He used the water to mimic an "L" sound.
I'm 57, and I remember a lot of my childhood. I remember the 60's and 70's being interesting times, so this video doesn't surprise me in the least.
I never knew much about this beyond the fact that the spiral of depression and psychological themes of this case are what would later inspire Ecco the Dolphin.
Thankfully they kept Ecco PG rather than X rated.
Very interesting but concerning video lmao, love to see how much you’ve grown, hope that you continue growing more!
To put things in perspective, I was watching a video of a horror artist corrupting a coloring book when I got the notification for this video.
As soon as I saw the title, I let out a loud, "OH NO..." because I knew exactly what experiment you were talking about.
On a lighter note, it finally convinced me to actually pause and see the opening art.
Jordan Persegati?
Was it Jordan Persegati's new video? Because I had the same experience XD
Let's be completely real here, the fact that Margaret was demonized and the actual lead researcher for this experiment was able to continue his career just fine is very upsetting. I feel bad for her, honestly.
Genuine question, do you think people would have been nearly as outraged if Margaret were a man?
Edit: I had a lot of nice conversations with many compelling arguments from a lot of different people! Thanks for that, but I wasn't expecting there so be so many replies. I can't keep up, so I'm not gonna be responding to them anymore. Feel free to continue discussing with each other though!
People would definitely be a lot more outraged because... Well, it's males. It's hip and cool to hate males nowadays, much to my dismay.
@@axain7784 Yes but that's nowadays, back then was much different. I mean, a man straight up had actual intercourse with a dolphin and yet Margaret is much more infamous for this
@@axain7784 We have historical proof a man could do far worse to an animal, and nobody would bat an eyelash. People love to shit on women for the dumbest reasons.
People dunk on her then turn around and drink cows milk, produced using artificial insemination which was acquired somehow through human intervention
@@valrie1650 EXACTLY!!! That was going to be my next point! There are even rarer cases of people who need to help relieve their female cats when in heat, and obviously this is very uncomfortable but no one should accuse these pet owners of anything that they're accusing Margaret of. Animals have sex, it's just a normal thing, and sometimes the need for it requires human intervention, the only perverted thing is people trying to twist the story into something worse bc they have a dirty mind.
Absolutely excellent video.
Congratulations on being featured on Scare Theater, 🎉... your content deserves the extra boost!
5:49 These are sounds of a harbor seal? Impressive.
Also, your humor is (as always) on point!
