Dr. Duncan MacDougall
Surgeon
Doctor MacDougall theorized that if the human soul existed it should have a physical presence and therefore mass.
To test this thesis, he modified an industrial beam scale and attached it to a hospital bed into which he placed terminal patients. Upon their death, he looked for any change in mass which he believed he saw at a period of from minutes to hours after death. He reached an average figure of about three-quarters of an ounce, later noted as 21 grams. The doctor even conducted control experiments, including testing the change in his own weight with the expelling of breath and the change of weight upon the death of presumably soulless dogs. (He noted no change in either case.)

J. B. S. Haldane
Genetist
A pioneering geneticist, he helped develop the mathematics of population genetics and natural selection. He also co-developed a theory of enzyme mechanics. He was also a self-experimenter in less theoretical physiology work. As a boy, he helped his father test gas masks, on themselves – his father eventually died of self-inflicted carbon monoxide poisoning.
As an adult he experimented with a barometric (pressure) chamber, inflicting it also on his wife and even an ex-prime minister of Spain. He suffered a crushed spine and perforated ear-drums. "[T] he drum generally heals up; and if a hole remains in it, although one is somewhat deaf, one can blow tobacco smoke out of the ear in question, which is a social accomplishment."
