There's a goal with those photographs. To make people aware and get them to help usually through donation. There is nothing to gain from a dozen people standing around videoing a man suffering under a bus in central London other than morbid curiosity. What will become of the videos those people made? What use do they have. If you can't help move on as you're probably in the way.

Cases like this start from a core few somehow figuring out how to pierce the crowd-mind was able to get a bus lifted and someone saved. It would be a great way to figure out how to collectively amass people like this when the need arises, and use them for constructive good.
