In 1995 scientists gave spiders different drugs and the watched them go about their daily spider activities (knitting webs and presumably planning the world domination). The results were astonishing; here they are:
However it wasn't just the spiders who were administered psychedelics and were watched as they went about their daily activities. Back when LSD was still legal (now scheduled as a Class I drug) in the US, scientists themselves were given LSD while being watched by their colleagues. It seems that LSD, surprisingly enough, didn't just increase
