Social experiments are some of the most-watched videos on YouTube. In these social experiments, usually, a premise is set forth that revolves around a social/moral situation where the aim is to see how people would react to the said situation if they were unaware that they were being recorded. All participants are later alerted that they had been recorded, and permission is taken to show their faces in the recorded footage.
