8 Minutes and a Marshmallow

A couple of the young women in our ward replicated the Marshmallow Experiment for their psychology class (they had the kids wait 8 minutes instead of 15. Eight tortuous minutes). They filmed the kids involved, including Talmage.

Here it is on Youtube.

I just LOVE his expression of torment and anguish.
And according to the link you provided, he'll do very well on his SAT's (we knew that already, right?).

Michael and I watched it and were dying laughing the entire time. Talmage was the star of the show for sure.

He loves marshmallows almost as much as I do!

We loved this clip! As we started watching, we could hardly wait to see T's responses to the experiment and we weren't disappointed...we burst into laughter. What a character. Certainly saw some facial expressions reminiscent of his Gormo father!
