Doing a dumb dare because the group is filming isn’t courage. It’s just peer pressure with better lighting.

Courage involves choosing something difficult for reasons of your own, and a dare arranged by a camera has removed exactly that part. What looks like nerve is compliance with an audience, and the risk is real while the choice is not. The strongest thing in that moment is usually the refusal.

Ask whether you would do it with nobody watching. If the answer is no, that tells you what is actually driving it. Being the one who declines while the phone is up is the harder act by some distance.
