🧠 What goes on in the mind of someone who believes the world will end
 and then wakes up to a perfectly normal day?

This video is based on a real experiment documented in the book "When Prophecy Fails". In 1954, a group of social psychologists infiltrated an apocalyptic sect that claimed the world would be destroyed on December 21—but that they would be rescued by a spaceship.

📆 From this experiment, we explore how Jehovah’s Witnesses have upheld multiple end-of-the-world dates—1914, 1925, 1975, “the generation that will not pass away”—without losing faith
 and how psychology helps explain this phenomenon.
