Antena 1: The herd instinct and its effects

Everyone is unique in their own way. We hear this from early childhood and yet the more we are different, the more alike we become. You must have noticed that, when you are within a group, people tend to imitate the others without thinking too much about their actions. Moreover, some of them will do things they wouldn’t normally do in other circumstances. This happens due to the herd instinct. Whether we want to accept it or not, this behaviour dominates our personality most of the time. Recent studies show that more than 95% of the global population acts under the same instinct., that is the herd instinct. And this behaviour is not new to human beings.
