Why This 1957 Study Means Everything in a Crisis

The Richter Experiments of 1957 detail the astounding research of Hope and its biological effects. Studying the phenomenon of "psychogenic death", or psychologically generated death (death from belief), this study empirically reveals the impact on biological capability and survivability Hope can have.
Also, sorry Norway. No Norwegian rats were not harmed in the making of this video, but that is not the case for the original experiment.
Study:
"On the Phenomenon of Sudden Death in Animals and Man", By Curt P. Richter
Psychomatic Medicine, Vol. XIX, No. 3, 1957
Notes: This video was filmed unscripted, on an impulse. The camera quality is poor, I did not have my microphone, and it started raining partway through the video. Humor me, I meant well.
