Today we can ‘science’ this a bit better than Le Bron: that crowds – the equivalent of packs at large scale (and different from herds) are a natural evolutionary expression of distributed cognition and signaling and the observed behavior of ‘elation in surrender to the pack’ which is caused by the feeling of safety in numbers, combined with the decrease in individual responsibility and agency as it it surrendered to the pack. Neurologically it’s simple.
