Anyone watching this?

 

It's interesting listening to the experts in the field. 

 

 

Test: http://www.channel4.com/programmes/psychopath-night

 

 

I scored 21%

 

 

You are warm and empathic with a heightened awareness of social responsibility and a strong sense of conscience. You like to carefully weigh up the pros and cons of a situation before you act and are generally averse to taking risks. You are very much a ‘people person’ and dislike conflict. ‘Do unto others…’ are your watchwords. But, although you avoid hurting others, those residing at the higher end of the psychopathic spectrum might not be as considerate, so stay vigilant to avoid being hurt unnecessarily.

For sure it's dark, but very interesting as they try to look into the mind and actions of a psychopath and endeavour to understand their motivations.

Yes, I usually enjoy those kind of programmes EC ..but wasn't in the mood tonight

It's actually more entertaining than I would have thought. They are counting down the top 10 film psychopaths with some surprising inclusions.

 

They have just taken a group of students who have taken the test at the top and as expected the ones displaying psychopathic traits performed a bungee jump.

Though your conscience is in the right place you also have a pragmatic streak and generally aren’t afraid to do your own dirty work! You’re no shrinking violet - but no daredevil either. You generally have little trouble seeing things from another person’s perspective but, at the same time, are no pushover. ‘Everything in moderation – including moderation’ might sum up your approach to life.

Oooh I wonder?

He probably does not have the charm they seem to display and use.

 

I'm trying to think of characters like those in say 10 Rillington Place.

Good choice. But I bet there are more.

I do think you should see the Batman film, HL's performance garnered a lot of praise. That snippet probably shows it's not quite a safe Saturday afternoon Batman film !

As I watched the programme I was going through people I know and people who I have know to see if any fitted the profile. One or two came close. One in particular - a white south Africa who used to work in the police in SA, did not display any empathy to the people of SA, was ob vinously empire building in our company and nothing was ever his fault. What let him down was he had no charm whatsoever and I don't think he was fearless enough, if challenged hard he would eventually back down. Really did not like him.
