A significant time ago, I watched a late-night documentary absently, whilst reading a book. I briefly remember it detailing that they had wired a mouse's brain, so that when they push an electronic button remotely, the mouse would experience an orgasm. In turn, they used this to train the mouse and reported great success.

Does anyone have any more information on this, and how hard would it be to do this to a human?
