I wonder if you could scale this experiment up with a human it could be fun, mind you I am not convinced that the pioneering little frog was alive for very long, if you watch the movie it also seems that only one side of its body works but maybe its just confused or enjoying itself :/

The frog doesn't experience any problems. And it lives as long as any other frog. NASA does this on a human level all the time.

The purpose of experimenting with a frog is to learn about its anatomy, behavior, and other characteristics. It can also help us understand the impact of certain substances or environmental factors on living organisms.
Some common experiments involving frogs include studying their response to stimuli, measuring their heart rate and respiration, and observing their muscle contractions.
As scientists, it is our responsibility to ensure that any experiments involving animals, including frogs, are conducted in an ethical manner. This includes obtaining proper permits, minimizing pain and distress for the frogs, and using alternative methods when possible.
To conduct an experiment with a frog safely, it is important to handle the frog gently and properly, avoid using harmful substances, and follow all safety protocols. It is also recommended to have a trained professional supervise the experiment.
Experimenting with frogs can lead to a better understanding of their role in the ecosystem, contribute to medical research and advancements, and provide valuable insights into the effects of pollution and climate change on wildlife.
