Watch this short video to see how people have become so de-sensitized to others, even to those in obvious distress…….would YOU have helped the first guy?
It is often said that we are becoming a more selfish and self centred society.
In France a recent experiment put this to the test. They filmed two identical scenarios where a guy falls down in a crowded street, in broad daylight, in pain and in obvious distress. He lies on the floor crying for help.
In the first case the guy is dressed shabbily and obviously gives people the impression that he is nothing more than a drunken bum.
The second video is the same guy, but this time dressed in a sharp suit and looking professional. Shockingly the outcomes were entirely different and show how quickly we judge others purely on appearance.
