Prove what? The non-existence of these experiments? Clearly I can't do 
that, since proving non-existence of anything is impossible.

You are saying things about these experiments. Unless you were 
personally involved, and not just imagining it, you must have come 
across information about them somehow. Why not provide details to 
facilitate some independent verification, as well as allowing an 
opportunity to check your interpretation of the results.
