Is this likely to happen in another country?

A bunch of people suspend all common sense in the presence of an authority figure to this extent. People around them are dying and dead, not breathing, no pulse, there is no fucking oxygen, temperatures are dangerously high. People are not forced to stay. Yet when the con man--oops I mean "authority figure"--tells them to stay they do.
People are so docile that they ignore their own distress, along with the dying and dead, and stay put in an oven. Granted they were likely unable to think clearly due to the lack of oxygen. But hell, is this an episode more likely to occur in the US because of "the deliberate dumbing down of America"?
Are other countries as advanced in the deliberate dumbing down process?
