In 1924, Carney Landis conducted an experiment to determine if emotions elicited universal facial expressions. He had students smell ammonia, watch porn, and put their hands in a bucket of frogs to induce expressions. Landis then took photos of their faces. He also asked students to decapitate a live rat, and found that two-thirds complied despite their initial resistance. While the experiment showed people's willingness to obey, it revealed there is variability in facial expressions for the same emotion.
