Would you help an injured stranger?

I have seen an old fellow fall down in the cold in Harbin winter last year. I couldn't get him up on my own (he was a big guy) and I screamed at the Chinese who had taken out their phones to take videos of "white boy helping up old Chinese man". First time I swore at Chinese people in China. After a good bit of abuse from me, I shamed them into helping me. Afterwards they all started telling me I shouldn't be helping random strangers as he could be a con artist to which I replied: "He could just be an old man who fell down in the winter, couldn't get back up on his own and died...I will take the risk thank you."
