would you die for a stranger?

[Gooberlx2]

say a child is standing in the road and it's up to you to dive-push him outta the way of a car, thereby sacrificing your own life. (all tragic-movie-style-like )

would you do it?

 

[her209]

Because I'd like to think that someone would do the same for my child if I had one

 

[amnesiac]

I'm invincible, so I'd save the child , suffering only minor injuries. Then I'd hunt down the reckless fsck who hit me and kick his ass into the ground.

 

[pyonir]

of course. how could i go into law enforcment and answer no.

 

[Gooberlx2]

Because I'd like to think that someone would do the same for my child if I had one

That's exactly how I feel...even though I don't have a kid.

 

[N8Magic]

Yes, because I am that type of person, and I couldn't live with myself if I stood there and did nothing.

 

[aphex]

Yes.

 

[melly]

yes, and take a bullet, and do god knows what else. i care too much.

 

[LordMaul]

In that case, I'd do a Bruce Lee and make a flying kick at the kid, knocking him across the street and flying to safety!

[yakko]

If there was absolutely no chance I would survive then no.

 

[syrehund]

there would be a chance for you to survive since you're much bigger than the baby...you could take more damage then it can

I'd try to save him (stupid instinct ) but I'd also try to not die in the process...

 

[HappyPuppy]

That wasn't the question. It is implied that you would be pretty darn sure beforehand that you would die.

In answer to the question, probably not. I would be leaving my wife and children to fend for themselves and I know for a fact that it would be extremely rough for them.

This question is something like another: If two children were drowning in a swollen, raging river, one of them was your child and the other was unknown to you, and you could only, possibly, save one, which one would you try to save?

Ask this to a Marine!

Semper Fi.

You call that invincible? You call that bruce Lee?! I'd do a flying kick at the car, thereby scratching the itch on my foot and saving the child at the same time.

 

[notfred]

Probably not. Why the hell should I? Kid ran out in the street on his own, not my fault he's there, why should I die cause this kid's a moron and his parents are too dumb to even pay ateention to where he's going?

 

[polypterus]

Knowing me I'd mess up and get us both killed.

dc

Exactly

Their answer would be yes 99.9999 percent of the time, god bless Marines.

 

[kgraeme]

Throw yourself on that grenade, soldier!

I used to be up for it. At some point I decided that the clients wouldn't pay enough to make it a good trade. I don't know what I would do now.

 

[dude8604]

<< I'd try to save him (stupid instinct ) but I'd also try to not die in the process... >>



Same here. Also, there's no way to know whether or not I would survive before I did it...

 

[Muadib]

I'd like to say I would, but until it happens, who knows.
