Being smart isn't a superpower. Matt's smart because he actually invests his time in researching, something we can and should all do but don't. So people who do research look like geniuses and the rest of us, like sheep, listen to them and don't bother with it ourselves.

People can get sued for assisting a death even if it was wanted. For example, I heard there was this guy who would teach people methods to suicide and in return, he'd get to film the suicide. It was technically legal cause he didn't directly assist in the suicide. But once it was a method involving a car but the car needed to start up first, so the filming guy started up the car. Bad move. That's when he crossed the illegal line and I think he's in prison now. So yes, Mr Incredible would actually get sued for helping the guy suicide if he were to do it like that.

[@megananderson7454]

Last year, I was suffering from heat exhaustion in a McDonald’s. I was throwing up in the trash can and verbally crying for help. Out of everyone in that crowded and busy restaurant, only one person did anything. Other people stared, but nobody other than that one person so much as asked if I was ok. That person was an employee that stepped away from her position and called me an ambulance. One moment I was terrified, throwing up, in a cold sweat, and begging for anyone to help me and the next thing I knew, the good employee was rubbing my back and a few paramedics were asking me questions about what could have caused my current state. Either the other witnesses thought that they’d get in trouble for helping me or they just didn’t care. If that employee hadn’t done anything, I likely would’ve tried to walk home since that’s how I got there in the first place. Since what I had would’ve lead to a heat stroke if I hadn’t cooled off and walking home would’ve meant walking a couple of blocks in the Arizona summer heat, I probably wouldn’t have made it home. That one employee, the only one that lifted a finger to help me, saved my life. I told her manager what she did so that he knew that, though she did walk away from her position during a very busy dinner rush, she did so to help someone and, in the end, save someone’s life.

[@imsad3630]

The beginning is really interesting, the “people passing by when someone is in danger.” I live in Belgium and I take psychology, a while ago we took lessons about a concept. I’ll start with a news story. A man suddenly had a heart attack in the street, he was alive, but very close to death. 8 (I believe) people past, some even stopping to look. Not one helped. Out teacher gave us an example, if you were alone walking in a park, broad daylight, suddenly you see someone drowning, do you help them? Most people said yes. What if it was a crowded park? People often think: “someone else will.” I know extremely depressing, hella interesting psychology.

[@hotpinkfryingpan7615]

isn't that called "bystander apathy"?

[@ADAJ342]

Bystandar effect Yes? Everyone assumes that someone else will help so in the end no-one does. The main way to prevent it is by pointing fingers at people and start issuing comands "YOU call the hospital! And you, find a med-kit!"

Ever since I first watched The Incredibles, for years I’ve always wondered why Mr. Incredible even got sued for saving someone from a suicide attempt or saved hundreds of people of getting killed from a train accident in the first place, it just made no sense but I think after watching this video brought some light onto something that has bothered me for years and shows that Pixar definitely does do their research. However there’s still one thing that still bothers me, what if Mr. Incredible didn’t choose to save the person that was going to commit suicide and didn’t choose to saved the hundreds of people on the train? Would he get in a lot of trouble for not saving them when he was at the perfect moment to do so since protecting civilians is basically one of the main jobs of being a Superhero and in turn would the public decide to turn against the Superheroes since those acts would tell the public that Superheroes no longer care for the public anymore and not doing the one job that they were meant to do and would the events of The Incredibles still happen where they all had to go into hiding and live normal lives?

If you ask me, that 1 guy who first sued Mr. Incredible is the reason all the other supers got killed by Syndrome. Think about it, if Syndrome used the same "relive the glory days" sob story on everyone they clearly ALL missed doing good hero work and so easily manipulated resulting in them getting killed.

​@Actionfan19 , true. You know, when I first saw the Incredibles 2 trailer, I thought he was gonna be the Screenslaver. I was disappointed in that regard, but worst is that he never got retribution for that one act that indirectly ruined their lives. I hope he steps on a lego, or maybe a thousand, for the rest of his mortal life..

This was not only extremely well put together, but the brilliance you continue to showcase in each thoery video is mindblowing. Comedy, wit, and suspense are the 3 biggest features that drive your videos. Editing, voice acting (yes, enthusiastic voice acting, very well done) and visuals are the not so acknowledged traits that tie everything together. It's not only entertaining to watch, but inspiring to listen to. Mr. Pat, I really want to drive home how impressed I am at your overall ability to perform. That's what this is, a performance. And if there's anyone who deserves gratification most, it's you! It sounds cheesy, but there's a line from an iconic movie (guess if you can) that states "You once spoke to me about intelligence. That it was a gift to be used for the good of mankind." That theme is constantly reaffirmed in each of your videos. You manage to inspire without going over the top, and I quite honestly can't describe how it makes me feel. Or how you achieve it, or if you even know/set out to specifically invoke it in others. Thank you for all the great work, and I look forward to the many future projects you pursue!

Something interesting is that according to people who survived attempted suicides at the Golden Gate Bridge, they immediately regretted their jump the second they began falling. But Sansweet of course didn't ask or want to be saved. Honestly, if his injures were so severe from his failed suicide attempt, he would honestly just try again behind Mr. Incredible's back. And if I were Sansweet, I wouldn't sue Mr. Incredible. I would seek some mental help and undergo rehabilitation to recover from the near fatal incident.

@B oh please, like you’ve researched laws more than this person has. He not only knows laws, but also knows when they were invented...

[@bern9642]

@@insertusernamehere8324 he researched just for this particular episode. That isn't hard at all. I'm not a lawyer but I write law articles, written over 300. You just gotta do the research. It's all public access. Google and Wikipedia makes it easy to track down each memo, court decision, and so on. But being a good lawyer is more than that. The law is open to interpretation and explanation. You need to be properly trained, ie go to law school and pass the bar. Ex. The good Samaritan defence he uses in the video won't actually work if you kidnapped someone because you claim you wanna save them. You can't cause a lot of damage and claim good Samaritan defense. A good lawyer will null that in no time. (Even doctors can be rightfully sued if they prescribe the wrong drugs, just because they wanted to heal or save doesn't exclude them from the law.) You can't cause reckless endangerment and claim the good Samaritan law. Also, suing the state or government and winning isn't expensive nor is it difficult. People do it all the time and win especially when it comes to personal injury. If the state is at fault because of faulty construction, etc. They can be held liable and if you're in the right, you'll win the case and be compensated for whatever injury you sustain. I wrote an article on such a court case about 10 years ago. I will look for it and post the link as an edit soon. I need to look for it. I don't have the fact off head. Edit: www.arnolditkin.com/personal-injury-blog/2019/april/can-cyclists-sue-cities-for-poor-road-conditions/ In this article (not my article), a man sued Los Angeles city council (and therefore the state and government) for injury caused by bad road which lead to his accident and injuries. He was awarded $6.5 million.
