EVERYONE deserves a chance to live and make decisions of their own free will. You can't just allow someone else to make that decision for them.

I don't think it is about being an "internet tough guy". I think it is that more people on CP are willing to display basic human decency, or at least would like to think they would, and help someone in danger vs self preservation.

It doesn't take a super hero to risk their lives for others. Look at how many people were running INTO the towers to try and help people get out despite the risk to themselves.

Was that Zach?

This!!! LMAO That had to be an actor, right?

Love that old black dude's response. "Need some help ovah here".

And that Asian woman's expression was priceless.

For those that question, I don't think it's a question. You help. Probably wise to call 911 first and then try to help any way you can.

For all anyone knows you're saving the life of the next Albert Einstein.

Have sex with the woman's corpse?

Still warm?...

Heh, that was my first thought as well, or a few good curb stomps.

Not trying to be "internet tough guy" because sometimes you can't say how you would act unless you there but man come on... I would like to believe I would have done something.

Not like he was getting butchered with a machete where this guy had a deadly weapon. Guy is strangling him with a rope.

If a chick is willing it get in there and hit the bad guy with some flowers, I don't think a swift kick to the head is asking too much of the rest of us.

SMH at the guy at the end just taking pics with his iphone. He can't even say he was running for safety. No he was just taking pics for the cops after the guy will be dead.

The guys with fire extinguisher just let the elevator door close.

I like to think I'd take action. I also like to think I'd run into a burning building to save someone. Thinking you'd be a hero and actually doing it in the moment are two different things. But I'm gonna sit here and tell you all that I'd act, because that's what I think I would do. Never been in a situation like that though.

And by act, I mean my first instinct if I acted would be to kick the strangler directly in the face really really hard.

Argh, that's an incredibly stupid experiment. I'm surprised that the pretend aggressor wasn't seriously injured.

True, but I appreciate them taking the risk to make a pretty entertaining video.
