- We live in a universe
where statistically disorder is king.
As time moves forward, things fall apart.
Stars burn out. Energy spreads out.
Entropy conquers all.
But humans, life, fights that trend.
We build things.
We organize things.
We add information.
So why is that we love destroying things?
[shouts]
Exploding fireworks.
Fights and crashes.
Even popping bubble wrap.
Ugh!
Tiny cute things can make us
want to just squeeze 'em to death.
Ugh!
Why?
[electronic music]
♪ ♪
The power to destroy is a delicious one.
Even just holding this here,
knowing I can drop it,
I am in control.
I can exert my will in a dramatic and irreversible way.
Ready?
Ready.
♪ ♪
Ugh. [laughs]
Beautiful.
Why does that feel so good to do,
or even just watch?
For me, throwing it to its death was almost relaxing,
like I feel calmer now after being destructive,
like I've vented some pent-up energy.
Or anger?
Why do we like breakings things when we're angry?
There's a growing trend of businesses
anger rooms that are popping up in places
like Texas and Toronto.
People pay to visit these anger rooms
and let off steam by smashing mock-ups of workplaces,
kitchens, and more.
Catharsis Theory proposes that such acts of destruction
reduce our anger.
But do they?
Sometimes, but sometimes they don't.
This is what makes studying the mind so difficult.
Researchers are still looking into the specifics
and the variables involved, and I want to see firsthand
and in person what it's like when people get angry
and then break things.
Will then be more or less violent afterwards?
To demonstrate Catharsis Theory,
we set up our own anger room
to see whether or not breaking things will help calm down
some angry people.
Our subjects think they're participating
in a study about opposing political views,
so we've asked them to write an essay
on different polarizing topics.
- Come in. - Kashona? Hi.
How are you? I'm Michael.
- Hi, Michael.
- It's nice to meet you.
I was just with your co-participant Clint.
He's in another room.
I'm gonna give your essay to Clint,
and he's gonna critique it,
and you're going to critique his.
- Okay, thank you. - See you soon.
- He wrote a lot. I didn't write that much.
Okay.
- Each of our subjects
has been paired with a man named Clint,
and they will be critiquing each other's essays.
- "Police officers have a very difficult job.
They have to protect us mainly from people of color."
[laughs]
- The thing is...
Okay, here we go.
I'm actually Clint.
"Overblown, un-American. Get over it."
My job-- or rather, Clint's job--
is to make our subjects mad
so they can test our anger room.
"You should be ashamed."
- "You deserve what's coming to you."
What a asshole.
Ha. Changed it to black.
That's better.
Oops.
- Okay, Kashona. I'm back.
And you were with Clint. Okay.
- Mm-hmm. - Let's go through what he wrote
just quickly.
- He wrote-- - Did I put that that way?
- No, you didn't. - Did you turn it around?
- I did turn it around.
He seems like a bigot or somebody.
I didn't want to keep looking at his face.
- He's responded to your essay there.
- We can't tell people where to go to eat for lunch,
what car to drive;
like, that just really irritates me.
- This is a person that is making arguments
that are not based in any fact.
- He's clearly someone who thinks
that the people who are on social programs
are lazy.
- I was like, "What the [bleep]?"
- Getting fired up, mother-- ooh, I'm getting fired up.
