@kithop @shel can confirm, the one time i was foolish enough to wear my glasses to a metal show i had a band stop mid-show so that the rest of the pit could help me look for them

everybody stopped instantly and started looking around, someone found them and gave them back to me, and they helped me get back to my friends outside the pit before anything started up again

i've seen people help each other up the instant they start to fall, immediately create paths for anyone who wants to get out, give each other water, etc etc. i've been to a fair amount of alt/rock shows and none of them compare to metal in terms of looking out for the people around you
