The scariest picture on the internet

In the late 1940s russian researchers kept five people awake for thirty days using an experimental gas based stimulant. They were kept in a sealed environment to carefully monitor their oxygen intake so the gas didn't kill them, since it was toxic in high concentrations. They had only microphones and window to monitor them. The chamber was also stored with dried food for their survival upto 30 days.
Those Five people were political prisoners of world war time. And they were promised to be freed if stay awake for 30 days.
The first five days went fine.but on sixth day they stopped talking to each other and started whispering to the microphone. They started behaving oddly. Researchers suspected that maybe it was the effect of gas.
After nine days the first of them started screaming. He ran the length of the chamber repeatedly yelling at the top of his lungs for three hours straight, he continued attempting to scream but was only able to produce occasional squeaks. The researchers postulated that he had physically torn his vocal cords. This line was horrifying..
The screaming then stopped and the whispering too. After three more days passed. The researchers checked the microphones hourly to make sure they were working, since they thought it impossible that no sound could be coming with five people inside. The oxygen consumption in the chamber indicated that all five must still be alive.
They announced: "We are opening the chamber to test the microphones; step away from the door and lie flat on the floor or you will be shot. Compliance will earn one of you your immediate freedom."
To their surprise they heard a single phrase in a calm voice response: "We no longer want to be freed."
The chamber was flushed of the stimulant gas and filled with fresh air and immediately voices from the microphones began to object. 3 different voices began begging, as if pleading for the life of loved ones to turn the gas back on. The chamber was opened and soldiers sent in to retrieve the test subjects. They began to scream louder than ever, and so did the soldiers when they saw what was inside. Four of the five subjects were still alive.The food rations past day five had not been so much as touched. There were chunks of meat from the dead test subject's thighs and chest stuffed into the drain in the center of the chamber, blocking the drain and allowing four inches of water to accumulate on the floor. After further investigations. It quickly became apparent that what they were digesting was their own flesh that they had ripped off and eaten over the course of days.
They continued to scream to be left in the chamber and alternately begged and demanded that the gas be turned back on, else they fall asleep..
