THE EXPERIMENT
They wanted to see if people would help each other in situations of life or death
Faked dying situations to see a persons reaction time and what they would do to help the person in danger
Used people who were unaware of the event taking placeUsed Columbia University students for experiments
In 2000, they used people in chats rooms to see if it had the same effect as people in a “non cyber” environment

RESULTS
It took longer for people in groups to help each other
People alone would notice and react to the danger faster than the people in groups
The same result applies to people in chat rooms
