I think they watched because it was so shocking, people loved being shocked by things back then. I watched things in 2010 that I regret seeing too. I was 17 and everyone else was doing it. It was just "the thing" at the time. You start off seeing something strange or weird, then someone sends you something worse and then it escalates until you're watching videos like that. I never went that far, I didn't watch anything involving gore/death but I know people who did and it really affected them.
