more than one witness
1. Does "more than one witness" mean "two, three, or more witnesses act like that..." or "the viewer is not just a witness but he/she also acts like that..." or "someone who was unaware of the show and came to the museum for something else, would act like that..."?
2. Does the red highlighted sentence mean "although looking very focused, the runners were completely self conscious, because they were running not only among people but also in a gallery where running is naturally not permitted"?
Context:
All the runners I saw looked very focused on the task yet they’re almost certain to have been rather self conscious, not only running in public like that but in a gallery where running is categorically not permitted.More than one witness to this running will initially have felt inclined to clutch their bag tighter or pat their pockets to check for their wallets and cell phones.
