I think that any study done about successful people would have to be inherently biased. Or one on people with above average intelligence.
Because only those people would be smart enough to come up with and conduct the studies.

New Hands
How long do you think it would take you to notice if someone switched hands with you if you could only notice through the sense of touch?
All's Fair in Love and War
If your race is at war with another race I think an ridiculous strategy would be to swap sperm bank materials in your enemy country's sperm banks with seed from your own. It would be interesting to see what would happen next.
Or to fight a war with love and just have all of your attractive females go to the other country and seduce the men.

Kid Art
Do you remember when you were first learning about the art of drawing? At first if was difficult to conceptualize putting a three dimensional object on a two dimensional plane. Until we see examples from others most drawings are extremely abstract. I remember having difficulty with drawing trees because to me they were conical rather than the archetypal tree drawing that we all do now.
Taking this to another level I think it would be interesting to see what would happen if you asked a child at this stage to draw something that is already relatively abstract, like the wind or light, before they are familiar with what the world would have them come up with in a few months, a bunch of curvy scribbles and the sun, respectively. I think the drawings and their explanations might lead to interesting insight into a different more fundamental perspective on the world.

Question Hour
I think a cool idea for a classroom would be to set aside an hour of day a week in which the kids could ask any questions (maybe in written form to filter out inappropriateness) that have been on their minds during the week.
Halloween Costume
I think a great Halloween costume would be Santa. Two reasons. First, easy costume to buy you just gotta look in the right season. Second, getting girls to sit on your lap.
