Liking privacy to the extend that there isn’t a single person that you would trust to analyse the video is not normal.
There’s no one on LW who I both trust and wish to waste their time analyzing on a lame video. It’s just not that important. If you have a little camera, you can replicate the whole experiment in a few minutes and confirm what one would have expected from the weird patient group, and which was also confirmed by previous LWers trying the procedure out. There’s no need to spend a lot of time debating a report, because any problem you have with it can easily be fixed in a few minutes by doing a better demonstration yourself: you can do it tonight and email off the video to, I dunno, Yvain or something, if my laziness and wish for privacy seems that bizarrely strong.
1) Not verifying the video.
2) Asking questions where there are probably no enough strong emotional effects.
As far as doing the experiment myself, at the moment getting rid of core rationalisation about my worldview isn’t my main goal. At the moment stability is more important for myself then destablizing my belief system by kicking out stuff.

There are two different issues:
1) Not verifying the video. 2) Asking questions where there are probably no enough strong emotional effects.
