This video makes me sick. To see the number of people who pass this guy without stopping to help is shocking. I understand the argument that everyone has spent months training, and no one wants to give up what would be a faster finish time, but good hell, this guy could have been in serious danger for all they knew. And where the medical personnel?

I'm not trying to pat myself on the back, but I've stopped to check on people in races who were still walking, but just didn't look right. I can't even imagine just ignoring this guy and going on my way.
