Stanley Milgram preformed an experiment that was incredibly valuable and has been replicated in many countries around the world. Variations of the experiment with different results helped narrow down important factors.

Today, it's unethical to preform the Milgram experiment. Michael/vSauce did preform the actual trolley experiment for a YouTube video, which is interesting, but it was bad scientifically because the sample size was too small, the experiment changed for one person, and the ethics for the entire thing was questionable.
