I don't think there is any competition when it comes to altruism after a tragedy, like volunteers after a terror attack or a natural disaster.

Actually, I'd argue that big science projects are international competitions for getting to the right answer first.

Some people are altruistic after tragedies but there are also usually politicians trying to spin them to their advantage.
