He was a man who helped design the very tools of psychological warfare.
He spent his career inside the most sensitive labs in America, and he died nine days after the CIA secretly dosed him with LSD.
His name was Frank Olson, and depending on who you asked, he either jumped from a hotel window or he was pushed through that window to keep America's darkest projects buried.
This isn't just a story about a crazy scientist who couldn't handle a bad trip.
It's the story of a government program that lost control of one of its own.
And they spent decades trying to clean up that mess.
This is the story of MKUltra's only confirmed patient, the case of Frankl's.
So sit back, relax, and welcome to camp.
What's up people and welcome back to camp.
My name is Mark Gagnon and thank you for joining me in my tent where every single week we explore the most interesting, fascinating, controversial stories from around the world from all time forever.
Yes, this is my tent where I sit in it every single week and I do deep dives on random stuff that catches my eye on the internet and I explain it to you, the viewer, the brilliant, enlightened, smart, handsome, and beautiful men and women that make this show possible.
I want to thank you for clicking on this video, subscribing, commenting, and all that stuff that keeps the fire burning here.
More importantly, what's up, Christos?
I want to give a shout-out to you for just being so tall and handsome and awesome at all times.
Christos, I know it's getting to your head.
A lot of people in the comments are loving you lately, and it's really starting to piss me off, okay, if I can be fully honest.
You might be Frank Olson next, all right?
You might get pushed out of the treehouse.
