Featured Vid #168 – The Bullying Experiment 

What would you do if you saw someone being bullied? Would you go and stop it? Most people would say so, but how true is that, as bullying is still a big problem in this country? Well, Yousef Erakat of FouseyTube decided to test this in a video called The Bullying Experiment. The video featured Yousef and his friend, Yousef acting as the bully and his friend as the victim. Yousef would pretend to punch, harass and push around the “victim” in a college campus, and then saw how the people around them reacted. And it was convincing acting too; it looked like Yousef was harassing his friend to the level where someone had to step in and intervene. And yet, despite plenty of people there to witness it, only one or two decided they had to step in and say something. Basically, the message that they were trying to convey was that if no one intervenes when someone is being bullied, the problem won’t go away.
