Top-secret experiments have been a thing of science fiction. In the films, the scientists would round up a group of volunteers. They would then promise them a future filled with luxury or perhaps something in exchange for their freedoms or that of their loved ones. Once the agreement was sealed, the subjects would be moved into a classified facility without being informed about what the outcome would be or how they would go about it. They would just be coerced into the experiment. And it would all start with a single dose of injection. In the first couple of days, everything would seem fine. Four days after… Wait, hold on a second. Why does it always have to take three or four days “after” for the bad incidents to follow a normal one? Why not 10 days or even 15? Well… we don’t know. Let’s just stick with the story and go with the mundane flow. So, four days later, the experiment would begin to go horribly wrong and way out of control. Afterward, the demons generated from the failed experiment would then be unleashed into society. People would begin to turn on one another in an inferno of madness. And there you go… an apocalypse!
Of course, it’s not something we would expect to happen in real life. Such a scene is good for horror flicks. But then, the issue of the famous Russian Sleep Experiment popped up. Everyone’s been talking about it. And in their story, they told about a nightmare scenario where a Soviet scientist walked into his lab one day, hoping to see his test subject alive and well. The subject had been brought into the unknown location some days before. But when he stepped inside the room they were kept; he couldn’t believe his eyes. It was an absolute hullabaloo. All he heard were loud screams oozing like the ones from the underworld. He felt a pool of blood mixed with water washed up to his feet. One of the test subjects had gone to the afterlife. Chunks of his thigh and chest meats were stuffed into the drain placed at the center of the experiment chamber. About four inches of water soaked the whole floor and precisely how much of the victim's actual blood in the water was never determined.
At this point, the scientists knew something had gone wrong. But were they able to do something about it? What happened to the others? How was the experiment later contained? Did this event actually occur in real life in the first instance? Err, we know your mind is filled with thousands of questions right now. But don’t worry. Sit back. Take a sip from your coffee before it gets too cold. And find out how our team of first-class poke experts here at “FactFile” would help shed more light on the issue of the Russian Sleep Experiment. Let’s cut to the chase and start from the point of inception, shall we?
So, we traced the sleep experiment back to a laboratory in the Soviet Union. Set your time machine to the 1940s. And you will find yourself at the height of the Second World War. The Nazi forces were pulling closer towards the Soviet Border. But Joseph Stalin was still as powerful as ever. The German forces had to resort to another strategy to break through the strong frontline battalions. Their solution: they began to synthesize a super-powerful sleep repellent drug they named “Pervitin.” This drug kept their soldiers up and doing for 48 hours non-stop. Fighting tirelessly, the German forces soon took over Poland. The Japanese saw the efficiency of the drug and soon made their more-potent brand from another powerful stimulant known as “Ephedrine.” The United States soon joined the clique by introducing the drugs to their own forces too. All these drove the Soviet Union to the wall. So, they decided to up the ante.
In the event, the Soviet Union researchers created their own stimulant; one they believed should keep a soldier awake for up to about 30 days and nights. This they opined would come in handy at a time when all their enemies were knocking at their footsteps. They had already obtained positive results when the drug was tested out on rats and other animals. But they needed more confirmation with human subjects. Of course, during a time of war, they had plenty of them as prisoners. So, they went into one of their prison sites and corralled five prisoners of war. The prisoners were informed about the plan to carry out an extreme experiment on them. The pre-notification was something the Soviet scientists would have boycotted if they had the chance. But the ever-conscious state and willingness of the prisoners were highly needed in this case. So to make them go along with it, the prisoners were promised their freedom.
