[saeed1291]

the woman eating at 1:10 is an idiot, obviously she must have thought free food, ill never get this again.

[JuquinDark]

@saeed1291 are you a murderer? im being serious you seem like one...be honest now ;)

[saeed1291]

@JuquinDark Let me think... Well I haven't murdered anyone so I guess i'M not :)

[EllysaE]

In the kitchen with the candle stick.

[sputniknick]

There were apparently things put in place in case any one of us got up to try and intervene with the murder but no one noticed. Some of us were suspicious it was a set up but it was one of those things where you wouldn't wanna point it out on the off chance that it was real.

Things such as the pub we went to, didn't even serve food, it was all a catering company, it was all ever so realistic upto a certain point where things ceased to add up logically.

i think this is a brilliant idea!! interesting and really well done . Why is it on so late on Sunday evening ? surely it should be on earlier !!

[SkittlesUK]

It's on Sunday 18th April, 22.50 on BBC 2.

[Microraptor70]

Look at the bloke who keeps sipping at his pint all the way through..... :D

[chishkebab]

what a bunch of useless cunts, they just sat there

[wigglyglowworm]

Look's interesting. Should generate a bit more awareness about the poor reliability of witness testimony. Look forward to it. Showing on sunday 18th apparently.

[mrvexed84]

This is shocking! Really interesting experiment. I want to see more. When's it on TV?

[ECTBWHO]

: P

[spress97]

I would give it a real go if the BBC told me when it was on. But since they didn't I won't :~(

[randomist92]

the actors in this video are amazing, which always surprises me is that so many actors are doing stuff like this when they are actually amazing

[damstudios]

i don't buy it.

obviously its almost impossible for me to emphasize with someone who has been in that situation. but if you had just signed up for a TV show, regardless whether you knew what show it was etc. i personally would be a little suspicious if something like that happened. with the people i'm doing the show with.

see where im coming from?

granted, if i were actually there maybe it be different. but now, here in front of a computer, i dont think those people are that gullible.

[Choo69]

@damstudios of course. you know its fake so you'd think they'd know.

but they don't. they thought they signed up for some sort of technology tv show.

and even then if you did not buy it would you have risked saying "hah, you are all actors for the tv show right?" when there is a chance it might be a real situation?

[damstudios]

@Choo69 yeah fair point :)

[MysterySparkStudios]

havent watched the whole video yet but at 1:10 that womans still eating chomp chomp while everyone else is shocked in surprise! LMAO

[rbutler01]

LOL one of them had his phone out

recording it ?

[Mirry57]

@rbutler01 Or to phone the police/ambulance.

Some of them even carried on eating!

[sputniknick]

@rbutler01 that's me, lol, i wish i got it out earlier and recorded the whole thing.

[ViruneeV]

Is that the dulcet tones of Philip Glenister that I hear?

[srtboy123]

BTW, it was guy number 2

[srtboy123]

The bystander effect is a social psychological phenomenon that refers to cases where individuals do not offer help in an emergency situation when other people are present.

the greater the number of bystanders, the less likely it is that any one of them will help... its weird but true ^^

[digitalgear]

@srtboy123 agree. the only way to ask for help is that we have to have direct eye contact with the person we're asking help. yelling help to a group might not help in this case.

[IneedTodisco]

WTF They did nothing. nothing at all. jesus christ take some action do some thing, one girl kept eating god damn it. but its funny since its fake

[anna258]

lol, one guy laughed

[thisisonps3]

wtf

[xkadie999x]

I can't believe they all just sat there and watched and no one got up or said anything or did anything

[drakelim]

@xkadie999x It's the bystander apathy effect.

[xkadie999x]

@drakelim I had to google that xx :)

[drakelim]

@xkadie999x LOL~ I would love to provide an explanation here but the characters limit are too short for it. :)

[timshel84]

If i was one of the volunteers i'd be saying the guy with dark hair in the grey top

[icecool1065]

Trick question: There was no murder. It was all set up ;)

[ImTheSign]

Professor Peach in the Library with a candle stick

[woohootrainiscoming]
