of scientists placed 5 monkeys in a cage and in the middle, a ladder with
bananas on the top.
Every time a monkey went up the ladder, the scientists soaked the rest of the
monkeys with cold water.
After a while, every time a monkey went up the ladder, the others beat up the
one on the ladder.
After some time, no monkey dares to go up the ladder regardless of the
temptation.
Scientists then decided to substitute one of the monkeys. The 1st thing this
new monkey did was to go up the ladder. Immediately the other monkeys beat him
up.
After several beatings, the new member learned not to climb the ladder even
though he never knew why.
A 2nd monkey was substituted and the same occurred. The 1st monkey participated
on [sic] the beating for [sic] the 2nd monkey.
A 3rd monkey was changed and the
same was repeated (beating). The 4th was substituted and the beating was
repeated and finally the 5th monkey was replaced.
same was repeated (beating). The 4th was substituted and the beating was
repeated and finally the 5th monkey was replaced.
What was left was a group of 5 monkeys that even though never received a cold
shower, continued to beat up any monkey who attempted to climb the ladder.
If it was possible to ask the monkeys why they would beat up all those who
attempted to go up the ladder … I bet you the answer would be … “I
don’t know — that’s how things are done around here”..
