I loved watching this video. I was so surprised that the ratio of the wallets were 2:3. I thought only the ratio would be like 1:10 meaning only 20 people returned the wallets. But it makes me mad that 1/3 of the people didn’t return the wallets. Some people are just so selfish they just want everything valuable to themselves. The person making the video was really nice because he gave advice for us if we ever lose our wallets and he also gave advice on what to do if someone else loses there wallet. There wasn’t really a success or a fail in this community experiment. But, if I could rate this successful or a fail I would definitely rate it a successful project.

That video comes to show that there are so many good and amazing people in the world. I also thought like Derek it is pretty bad though because 1/3 didn't return the wallets at all. It was really cool that at the end of the video, he talked about the woman who was testing the same thing ,but in a bathroom. He also said that the woman tried 6 times before she gave up, it was amazing how most of the people gave the wallets back.

I learned that many people are very honest because 2/3 of the wallets were returned and 1/3 of them weren't. out of the 2/3 of the wallet returned 96% of them still had the money inside. They also sent the wallets to the "poor" areas and the "rich" areas. the out come was the both areas returned 60 wallets. They wanted to see if men returned less or more wallets then the women and actually 57% of the wallets were returned by men and 43% of them were returned by women. to conform that they put 2 wallets in two different girls bathrooms and did the same in the men's. As a result, 24 wallets were returned by the women and 23 from the men's. After watching that video made me realized how honest and kind everyone is to each other in the world! :]

This video shows you that there is good in the world . I loved how so many people saw the wallet and called and tried to return it . What was really awesome was some homeless people even gave it back that is great . In all this video interested me and i hope that we can have more people in the world like this.

This videos super cool and shared a lot of data. I think for America that 2/3 of the wallets where returned is very fitting for our country because some people are poor and some people are rich and some people are religious and some people are not. This means that maybe if you where poor u might want it more than if u where wealthy. i learned that 96% of the wallets still had money which is very good. Also, the gender does not matter. Finally I learned that more small cities returned their wallets.

This video was very interesting and I am surprised how many of the wallets were returned WITH the money, as it was very high.

That surprised me with how many wallets came back. I turns out most people will do good things and they don't take things that don't belong to them.

I was pretty surprised at the number of wallets that came back. I’m glad to know that there are good people in the world who would return my wallet if I dropped it. But there’s also 1/3 of people that didn’t return wallets. 1/3 of people is still a lot of people. It’s great that we have lots of good people in the world, but we should keep trying to make everyone a great person. Also, I didn’t know that you can return wallets by sticking them in a post box.
