He took eight perfectly normal in all respects a man: three psychologists, a psychiatrist, a pediatrician, an artist, a housewife and a graduate student. All of them turned to the psychiatric clinic, as people who are "concerned about their mental health." All talked about himself and his state of truth, except for one detail - they supposedly heard voices saying "empty", "dull", "knock". They all doctors considered mentally ill.

They were treated for 7 to 52 days and behaved like normal people.
As a result of treatment of seven was diagnosed with "schizophrenia", one - "manic-depressive psychosis." After being discharged from the clinic their condition was described by doctors as "improved", "in remission," but no doctor found that they recovered. None of the doctors did not think that they are perfectly healthy.

I wanted to shoot "Last year's snow," and I was told that it is necessary to shoot something about pioneers, collecting scrap metal. I resisted and screamed. The scandal lasted four days. And fifth, I came in and said, "Okay. I want to make a cartoon about Lenin. " Then they tightened: "What's that for a cartoon?" "Well, - I say - Lenin was a very cheerful person. I am making a funny movie about Lenin - all obhohochutsya. " They realized that they put on the table for a movie party cards. They asked: "Can not about Lenin?" - "I am a well-known director, I want about Lenin." Two weeks went and demanded - want about Lenin! Even then I figured out that the film will be the story Zoshchenko about Lenin. And got what he wanted - do what you want - but not about Lenin! And I made "Last year's snow».

Everyone knows that penicillin was discovered by accident. But I wonder how many factors had to match up to this. The key role played in the opening sloppiness Fleming - after studies he did not sterilized Petri dish, and scatter them anywhere. Only once in two weeks, he shoveled debris and cups antiseptic soaps.
One day in early September 1928, after returning from vacation, he went to the lab and saw the usual rout. Before leaving, he planted a couple of dozen crops of staph boils, abscesses, and inflamed tissues of the nose, throat and skin. Cups and lying in the bath, half drenched Lysol. Before you take up the wash, he noticed strange. In the middle of one of the mold cups increased stain, and the edges were not bacteria. It looked as if the mold had destroyed them. This accidental discovery will Fleming Nobel Prize - later became the mold penicillin.
A series of coincidences that led to the fact that the mold has grown, and it was noticed by Fleming, is extremely unlikely. First of all, the window was open and mold spores penetrated from the street; have a cup of staph, oddly enough, has not passed the incubation period; from July 27 to August 6, the street was ideal for the growth of mold temperature - 16 to 20 degrees Celsius; Then came a rather long period of warm weather, enough to Staphylococcus multiplied; Fleming returned from vacation just took this cup. Finally, this is the cup from slipping into an antiseptic, which would have destroyed the bacteria and mold.

Indian farmer Dashrath Manjhi Dashrath Manjhi belonged to the lowest caste and lived in a poor village, where there was not even a hospital. Direct path to civilization - the neighboring town - blocked rocky mountain. There was only a road to bypass, a long and uncomfortable. One wife Dashratha, climbing the mountain, fell and was seriously injured. Help the time could not provide, and soon she died.
The farmer took a shovel, a hammer and chisel to break through the road and went into the mountain. Every day he went to peck, to dig out the stones (some sources say that he was working in the evenings, after work in the field). The neighbors called him a madman. Local government, mired in laziness and lack of money, did not lift a finger to help. It took him twenty-two years - from 1960 to 1982 minutes, almost razed to the mountain and to do it in the road. Now the way to the town now takes an hour on foot. All India learned about him as "a man to remove the mountain." When Dashrath died, the state government gave him a solemn funeral.

Lance Edward Armstrong - American road racing cyclist. Armstrong: "One day the doctors found I had cancer of the brain, lung and testicular cancer - all in one go. I offered to quit the sport, but I sent everyone on dick and cured, won the Tour de France five times in a row ».

The New York schools conducted a simple experiment. 400 fifth graders were given a few simple tests. Once they have coped with the task, one half was praised for the fact that they are so smart and the other for what they did a good job. Then all were given two new tasks - one more difficult, more easier. The choice.
Interestingly, 90% of students who were praised for their diligence have chosen a more sophisticated tests, and most "smart" - the simpler. Smart has proved that they are smart and would not possible failure to put this fact into question.
By the way, psychologists believe that when a person pulls up to the last performance of the work he has to do a long time ago - it is also the fear of failure. Man insured just in case - but if I had more time, I would have all shown a masterpiece. And so ... I just did not have time.
