I once got paid $50 to run on a treadmill for an hour while blindfolded and with white noise earphones on by a psychology student while I was an undergrad. I had to go for a 10 mile run anyway (ended it up outside when I was done). The worst part was the usual lack of air movement around the treadmill that I get anyway, not the sensory deprivation part. I think that I threw off the curve since I was the only one to get farther than 30 minutes. Then again, I was the only one on the XC team in the study.
Whatever, it was a month's worth of beer regardless.
