    After watching this its my goal to go against the bystander effect and help no matter if others do or don't.

    And then you see the next two examples, were both of them are exposed. And people are more inclined to help in that situation.

    Well, he is suspicious as fuck. The coat covering his whole body and he is, conveniently, at the end of the stairs of a crowd building... I mean, come on. "Help me, help me" won't do you no good, buddy. You gotta explain a little more in your cryouts before anyone risk helping you. Muggers are creative.

    My GF is a nurse. She makes me check on people sleeping in the park Sometimes it is embarrassing, but at least I won't be a heartless passerby.

    These people are genetically programmed to be fucking assholes.

    We all say we'd help. I'd like to think I would help, but I can't quite remember the last time I stopped to help a stranger out. I'm sure I've ignored some and help some.

    What about you?

    In my country it is illegal not to help - I would prefere to risk ridicule in order to save a life
