For better or worse, it makes it so that the attention seekers can get their attention and they'll do whatever just to get more attention,” Siegel said. “It also makes it so that we can better society. You'll always see it on YouTube or wherever, the one story that someone wrote, did, that just changed someone's life, and most people see that - whether they actually do it or not is a different story - but they want to change and do something like that. It kind of makes people want to be better.”
