He put lemon juice on his face… and believed security cameras could no longer see him. In 1995, McArthur Wheeler robbed two Pittsburgh-area banks while apparently believing that lemon juice had made his face invisible to cameras. The police eventually identified him from the surveillance footage. But the strange robbery became more than a bizarre crime story. It became a memorable example of a much deeper problem in human psychology: how can someone become extremely confident in an idea without realizing how badly they've misunderstood it? This video explores Wheeler's story, the psychology of overconfidence, the Dunning-Kruger effect, and the uncomfortable possibility that all of us have blind spots we cannot see. The most dangerous mistake isn't being wrong. It's being wrong… and not knowing it.
