Please relate to me the most profound and original psychological experiment (or lecture) video you have encountered online (less than twenty minutes and at least graduate level, please).

Dan Ariely was badly burned as a young person and required extensive skin grafts. So his appearance is not usual. He looks unfamiliar. But he does psychology at MIT and he is brilliant and he gives a very fascinating talk. There is another Ariely TED talk online too, but try this one.

How coincidental! Or as Ariely would say, predictable. I saw this video for the first time this week. Thank you for setting the mark, Marcus!

Any suggestions from others?
