This reaction of the observers is partially attributable to the activation of mirror neurons according to some researchers.

When an animal acts and an animal observes the identical action done by another, the mirror neuron fires both. This where the neuron "mirrors" the behavior of the other animal, seeming like the observer is the one acting.

It is partially attributable to the activation of "mirror neurons".

A mirror neuron is a neuron that flames both when a creature demonstrations and when the creature watches a similar activity performed by another. In this manner, the neuron "reflects" the conduct of alternate, as if the onlooker were itself acting. Such neurons have been seen in primate species.
