The first part of a crucial human experiment was recently conducted at a pub. A substitute for a $20 dollar note was inserted into a toilet urinal and the plan was to time how long it took before said $20 dollar note was raised from the depths of the urinal by a fellow customer.

We did not see who retrieved the note but rest assured, the note was gone within 5 minutes.

I would be interested to see the results of the same experiment with a $10 dollar note in place of the $20. Then a $5 dollar note…. Would it get to coins before the money is left in place?

At what price would you consider plunging your hand into a urinal to retrieve money?
