A woman
pretended to be drunk in the street to gauge men's reactions as part of a
social experiment - and the results will shock you.
The 10-minute clip, uploaded to YouTube
by rehab clinic Centro Europeo Neurosalus, shows a scantily-clad
actress drinking from a bottle of alcohol at 5.30pm in the buzzing city
of Madrid.
A
steady stream of men begin approaching her, but rather than offering to
help her, they suggest drinking more alcohol and some attempt to get
intimate with her.See more pic after the cut....
Speaking at
the start of the video, the director says: 'What you are about to see
is something more than just a simple social experiment.'
He
goes on to explain that an actress will play the role of a drunken
woman and then interact with people in the street - in broad daylight in
a busy city centre - to see how they react.
He
adds: 'This particular situation poses many questions: "what could
happen, for example, on a Friday or Saturday night?"', before
continuing: 'Will men help her? Let's see what happens.'
The woman,
dressed in a fitted, short dress with ample cleavage on show, stands in
the middle of a bustling square drinking a large bottle of beer in a
plastic bag.
A
group of four men immediately approach her and when she tells them that
she is lost and has no battery on her phone, they ask her where her
friends are and where she's from.
'We'll help you find your friends,' the men say as they get closer and closer to the woman.
After telling the men she has 'drunk too much', they insist she 'hasn't drunk enough' and suggest she 'drinks a little more.'
The next man that approaches asks her: 'Is this the first time you have gotten drunk?', to which she answers: 'I never drink.'
The man then suggests the pair go and sit in a stairwell - because if she doesn't sit, he claims she will fall over.
He
then links arms with her and attempts to lead her away saying: 'Come
on, give me your hand', before she manages to break free.
The next duo to spot the woman, approach her, and suggest drinking more alcohol.
Despite
telling them she has already drunk enough, the men, who wrap their arms
around the woman, insist on going to the shop to buy some more alcohol.
They also
tell her she can charge her phone at their hotel and then invite her
friends to join the party. 'Afterwards, we will call your friends and
introduce them to me,' says one man, before calling the woman
'beautiful.'
Another
passer by puts his arm around the woman and asks her if she is married.
When she tells the man: 'I don't know where I am', he replies: 'I have
an iPhone charger at the hotel.'
Despite
the woman falling into him and telling him she 'feels bad' and 'can't
walk', he goes on to state he is buying more beer for her.
'Even
more beer? Do you think I can drink more?', she asks. 'Yes,' he replies
as he takes her hand and assures her that he will drink with her.
Perhaps the most shocking moment comes when a man spots the woman waiting alone.
After
asking her name and calling her 'beautiful', he leads her down a quiet
alleyway and pins her against the wall and attempts to kiss her several
times.
One
of her colleagues has to intervene to break up the couple but the man
claims he knows the woman and isn't keen to let her go.
'Hey, why do you take her?,' he asks. 'You don't take her!,' he repeats as he struggles to keep hold of the woman.
Her
colleague manages to free the woman from the man's grip and leads her
to safety. He can be heard in the microphone saying: 'Don't let anyone
touch you.'
The
director returns to the screen at the end of the video and concludes:
'Most of you are probably surprised and some of you also disgusted and
maybe you are thinking that we have avoided some scenes favouring the
most "juicy" parts, but I am afraid to deceive you.
'It
really was the opposite. Those situations full of rudeness and physical
abuse were taken away because there is no need to show it in such
depth.
'The
most disappointing fact is that we had no need to edit the video. Why?
Because nobody got close to helping this drunken woman.'
