crowd surfing 

When you are at a rock concert in a tight audience and the people around you lift you up onto the heads of the crowd around you. Then either all the people holding you up slowly pass you around or they all at once throw you to another section of the crowd. Usually the ride ends with security pulling you down and then you have to go to the back of the crowd and work your way back up to where you started from. Or the people you are passed to do not know you are coming and end up dropping you. The feeling when you are crowd surfing is as if you are simply floating up there. Even though there are about 10 hands touching your legs, ass, back, and sometimes head.
The crowd surfing was so cool, until i got dropped on my head.

crowdsourcing 

n.

The practice of outsourcing a job or task that is traditionally performed by employees or a contracted company to a non-organized, usually large group of people, generally in the form of an open call or competition.
A: "I wish I could write a dictionary for all the cool slang out there, but it's too big a task for me alone, and I can't afford to pay anyone else to do it."

B: "Crowdsourcing is the solution to your problem.. I know -- you should make a website called urbandicitonary.com, or something. People will just fill it up and edit and moderate all on their own, and you won't have to pay a dime!"

Crowd Surfing Responsibility 

Also referred to as CSR, crowd surfing responsibility is the obligation of all concert goers to be aware of and help notify others of incoming crowd surfers. This is crucial to the safety and well being of all present, crowd surfers included.
In a most devastating display, a would be crowd surfer fell into a mosh pit and was trampled. If only those on the edges of the pit would've practiced good crowd surfing responsibility.

A 300 pound man crowd surfed through an area where no one was paying attention. One person was crushed to death because of the failed CSR.
