30 participants entered a prison to recreate the infamous Stanford Prison Experiment, but not everyone lasted. They were tested and tried for two weeks as they dealt with the psychological pressures of life behind bars. So, here’s everyone who tapped out of The New Stanford Prison Experiment<\/a>.<\/p>\n

‘Scary’ Larry Foy<\/h2>\n

\u201cIf you add up all the days I\u2019ve ever done behind bars since I was born, it\u2019d probably be like 350 days,\u201d Larry reveals. \u201cJust a guesstimate.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was doing a lot of dumb things when I was younger,\u201d Larry explains. \u201cSkipping school, smoking weed with my friends, experimenting with other things.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Larry already having spent some time in jail, he says the safe word \u201cpineapple\u201d in the first episode and drops out of the experiment. \u201cGet me the f**k out of here.\u201d<\/p>\n

 \u201cThe word \u2018pineapple\u2019 is intended to be used when participants feel under threat of psychological or physical harm or distress,\u201d Dr. Alison Wood Brooks, the show\u2019s behavioural psychologist from Harvard explains.<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody that has changed their life to not come back to this place, um\u2026 They shouldn\u2019t be put back in here,\u201d Larry says. According to the show\u2019s executive producer, Jane Lipsitz, \u201cLarry had done a lot of recovery work and works as an advocate now for reform.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe had changed his life pattern,\u201d Jane said. \u201cIt was very important to us to not put people into the population who posed a threat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Larry eventually decides that going home is the best decision for him. \u201cI already did that, and I\u2019m not trying to do it no more.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jackson Sharp<\/h2>\n

Jackson was Larry’s bunkmate until Larry left the experiment. Quickly after his departure, Jackson also decides to exit.<\/p>\n

Brendan<\/h2>\n

“I couldn’t do another day of this,” he tells his bunkmate. His reasoning? “I simply cannot, as a free man, allow myself to be in the mindset of somebody who’s not.”<\/p>\n

“This ain’t right. Like, I don’t feel good,” he says.<\/p>\n

Brendan then speaks to his mum on the phone, and she ends up convincing him to stay in the experiment. Then, in a twist of events, his luck turns around, and he goes from an inmate to a guard.<\/p>\n

Chet<\/h2>\n

Chet started off as a guard but then eventually became a prisoner. <\/p>\n

Despite his tough guy act, once he becomes an inmate, Chet ends up leaving the experiment early. \u201cI can handle six more days in here, but at the cost of me not being happy.\u201d Weird\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not getting any type of stimulation from that anymore,\u201d was his justification for leaving the experiment early.<\/p>\n
