would you submit yourself to scientific study?

[VonKlaw]

I'd be inclined to say yes, were it not for the fact that it would almost definately turn ugly if you decided to change your mind.

Plus anything that could have ANY military application would almost certainly get ninja'd.

 

[Jfswift]

Depends. If you've ever seen the show, "heroes" some of those powers are just too dangerous. I would turn down the offer in those cases regardless of money involved.

 

[Whitbane]

Eh, I'd give them a week or two to do what they wanted, as long the tests/studies aren't dangerous or anything. I wouldn't be worried very much about payment, only if they would need me for prolonged study would I ever being up being paid for my time.

But yeah, depends on the super power/ability I have. If it's something that would actually benefit people in a multitudes of ways, sure. However, invisibility or super strength would be mine to use alone. We don't need super soldiers or inviso-spies starting up some strange conflict.

 

[CrashertheSmasher]

Man I've already had myself submitted to Scientific Study. Portal was a pain in the ass to figure out my first play through.

 

[Brandon237]

Yes, but they have to tell me everything they find and be willing to explain what they know about it to me, and maybe some moniez, depends on if the university can afford it or not. I won't bleed them dry for it. I would want the advancement of knowledge.

And same thing for family / friend unless they explicitly told me that they did not want that and gave a damn good reason. That could be such valuable information.

 

[Yopaz]

If I could integrate the studies of myself with my masters degree I would go for it.

 

[Rowan93]

Hell yeah I would. If I have some kind of superpower, the first thing I'm going to do is experiment with it. Now you're asking me if I'd take an offer to get paid for that, and have plenty of actual science equipment, and have a bunch of other guys do most of the actual work besides super-whatevering? Where do I sign?

And for the family/friend, yes. Unless their brain was going to be cryopreserved (in which case, no brain-dissection, head goes in cryonics box, and the science dudes get the body), any dead body is basically a lump of meat, science is just about all you can do with it.

 

[deathninja]

As long as it's people I know in our own lab, and I get to pore over the papers, sure.

 

[LostCrusader]

As much as I'd want to say yes...

I know some villain or corporate tyrant guy would use that research against me, and for their own advantage. I'll have to decline.

I gotta go with this answer. Plus I'm pretty sure how this is how they made the villain (I think his name was Abomination) in the last incredible hulk movie.
