oh wow, thank you for sharing these
actually brought a tear to my eyes, seeing these, thank you!
Isn't this normal behaviour?
I've both helped and been helped throughout my life but it's good to see it's widespread. Call me naive if you like but I like to think the overwhelming majority of people are decent and honest.
Motorcycles weren't incredibly reliable when I was an enthusiast and it was normal practice to stop and offer assistance to a fellow rider who had broken down. Of course, we were all, of necessity, mechanically minded. Similarly with cycling, although the cheery wave of thirty years past isn't quite so common now, sadly.
The time to start worrying is when good deeds become news. As long as nasty things are the newsworthy items, take heart, because it means they are rare. It's called 'news' for a reason :)

First video is nice.
London, USA, Russia, Taiwan, Russia several more times. Promote use of dash cams! They make motorists safer!
Video number 4 left me greatly disturbed. First episode is basically abuse of the child with poliomelithys. Rest... Let's just say that that hugging a person you almost killed seconds ago dos not make you more humane... As for 22 millionaires having fun on the grass... It is only nice when it is part of a story on BCTS :-)
Let's just say I can't see anything extraodinary in stepping between your crazy buddy and innocent bystander. There are "sportsmen" who had done differently? Why they are not jailed as accomplices to assault and battery?
I'm really sorry if I burst your bubble. But I still can't get over humiliation of polio child...
