It's all about the madness of crowds. It has been demonstrated time and again throughout history. Most people seem to assess their behaviour by reference to those around them. If everyone else is doing it, it must be OK. Every bubble manifests the same phenomenon. Religion is a more commonplace example - people are willing to believe the most ridiculous things as long as these ridiculous beliefs are shared by enough of their fellows.
