No, I don’t know which one. And I don’t want to watch people get hurt so I won’t seek it out either. There are incidents in this world that fit the theory of the bystander effect. That is not what I question. I’m questioning your calculation of odds regarding intervention. There are enough examples of “heroes without capes” that did intervene as well, also within groups of people.
A shower thought doesn’t have to be well thought through. On the flip side, you don’t have to double down on it when folks point out the flaws.

If a singular instance make you believe everything is indeed that way, then maybe the problem is you.

There are also plenty of counterexamples of helpful, sometimes even brave, bystanders.

Most likely not. Only an idiot goes to those.
There are the remaining 95 % of bars to choose from. Leave the rough bars for some idiot lads that like spending their time there.
