Late in the first quarter of Game 2 between the Golden State Warriors and the Oklahoma City Thunder, Stephen Curry leaped for a loose ball along the sideline. In the process, he went flying into the stands.
Curry appeared to be fine afterward, but given his recent injuries and the magnitude of this game, Warriors fans collectively held their breath.

Before it became apparent that Curry was okay, people were questioning why the fans in close proximity to the incident didn't make a better effort to catch Steph before he thudded to the ground. This is the two-time MVP after all.
On top of that, one guy started photographing the moment, with no sign of concern whatsoever.

Photographer opted to take pics of Curry being down instead of helping him up. (Our society in one tweet)
