We Built A Lie-Detector Skeleton From 1927



You might recall the recent post about Helene Adelaide Shelby's ridiculous invention for scaring criminal suspects into confessing. Tom Scott saw it, too, and had to try it out. He actually built the device and invited some "suspects" to face it and see how they would react. Honestly, you can skip the first two minutes of this video and just get to the reactions. Can he pinpoint which suspect stole the cookie? (via Digg)
