The first time this occurred to me (people thinking everything is just TV) was at a classical concert I attended: behind me, two people were talking out loud almost all through the concert. I started to get the uncanny feeling they thought they were watching TV--not a concert with a live audience.
Then the people at the wreck I described, just watching the blood and not calling 911....
And the SUV stories here....

Seems like we all think there is "someone" who will handle everything while we watch...
