A group of scientists placed 5 monkeys in a cage and in the middle a ladder with bananas on top,
Every time a monkey went up the ladder, the scientists soaked the other monkeys with cold water! After a while every time a monkey went up the ladder, the other ones beat up the one on the ladder. After some time. no monkey dare to go up the ladder regardless of the temptation.
Scientists then decided to substitute one of the monkeys. The first thing that new monkey did was go up the ladder and immediately other monkeys beat him up. After several beatings followed by his attempts the new member learned not to climb that ladder even though never knew why!
The second monkey was substitute and the same thing happened. The first monkey participated on the beating for the second monkey. A third monkey was changed, then the fourth and finally fifth one, they were repeating the same.
What was left was a group of 5 monkeys those even though never received a cold shower, continued to beat up any monkey that makes an attempt to climb up the ladder.
So, can you guess what would be answer if it was possible to ask the monkeys why they would beat up all those who attempted to climb the ladder?? Well, the popular guess is "I dont know, thats how things are done around here!".
