Tough Question (for some)
Ok, so you're in a burning building. You have a fire extinguisher and you're running down a hall to the safety of the outdoors. At the last four-way intersection in the halls you glance to your left and see (insert significant loved one) trapped on the other side of the fire. You immediately turn to assist them in getting out, but then you here a call from behind you. Turning around, you see 25 people in the exact same problem as (insert significant loved one) is. You only have enough left in the extinguisher to get through one of the hallways and save whoever's down it. The person/people in the other hallway will die. No way around it. If you save your loved one, you will be viewed as being selfish for getting 25 people killed to save 1. If you save the 25, you'll be a hero, but you'll also be feel incredibly guilty. Who do you save?[spoiler]Sorry random strangers, but I'm going with my gf. I expect the same from most of you.[/spoiler]

Uncle Putinにより編集済み: 4/8/2014 12:42:59 AMMy loved one. I'm normally not one to be selfish or anything like that but under the moment, I think the cries of my loved one would really overpower me. I wouldn't be able to think about it.

Lol this is easy. This is called the "moral dilemma". There is no right or wrong answer, however there is only one "true" answer, but as I mentioned it is not considered right or wrong. We have had scenarios such as these fed to us on Combat First Aid/Patrol Medic courses, as well as on specific selection courses I have attended. This exact scenario fits closer to the "reverse triage" scenario. The answer that you are meant to choose is save the many. However it is the human psyche that does not allow this if this scenario was to unfold in real life. If that was your mother, father, child, whomever your immediate response would be to exhaust all resources to save them. Why? Because of the physical and emotional attachment to them. Those other people are in no way directly related to you. Their existence means nothing in comparison to the other person's. Even a professionally trained Emergency Department doctor who is well skilled and trained in reverse triage would not physically allow their loved one to perish. It is part of the human weakness. I imagine some people here would say they would rescue the group. And they are probably telling you the truth, as they think they would do the noble thing. But unfortunately when instinct kicks in you only save your own. This is why I said there is no right or wrong answer, however only one "true" answer exists.

It happened to me. When i was calling for my parents, i saw them down the hallway. As i started to run, the building was falling apart all around me. Then i saw them. About 8 or 9 kids in a room screaming. I had a decision to make. I chose the kids... and lost my parents.

2 通の返信Extinguish my body, because it's so hot. Then proceed to smother the flames in my dick as I start to use it as a firetruck lift, lifting everyone out of the cornered room using my dick. I then proceed to demolish the building with my dick. Then dig the first hole for the foundation of the dick saving memorial.....with my shovel.

1 返信That's like asking "do you save Kate Upton or 25 other people I don't care about... Hmm.." I think you know the answer.

3 通の返信Well, technically I have no one close to me. The closest I could bring up would be a bartender. He'd understand. Would probably make a joke about it too. "If those 25 ingrates over there don't thank you every day of their lives, I'll personally beat the shit out of them with my four hands until they're dead like me." Yes. 25 people it is then!

How people view me for making my decision (whether it appear selfish or heroic) is not even of my least concern. When in a situation like that when it boils down to helping someone, anyone, in any certain way then it seems obvious to me that letting yourself be influenced by the opinion of someone else denies any right for you to be deemed heroic. Simply put, if you do something for the sake of reward or praise and not solely because you feel it is the right thing to do, you are an asshole. In either situation I would feel incredibly guilty. I'd like to believe I'd save the 25 people... but I can't guarantee my greatest want wouldn't be to save my wife. This question I can not answer.

3 通の返信Scratch that. Throw the extinguisher to the 25 people. Then run down the hall to my gf. At least we'll burn together.

2 通の返信Depends if there's someone more attractive in that group of 25 people I could trade up for.

Copper1により編集済み: 4/3/2014 9:32:35 PMMy GF. I'm not selfish, it's just she's kinda the only one who really supports my life right now. Friends have better crap to do. Parents always busy. I'd like to have her around to help me when times get rough.

1 返信If I'm dating a girl who's not willing to die for 25 people, then I'm dating the wrong person.

Hunterにより編集済み: 4/3/2014 8:08:30 PMWell, if my girlfriend isn't willing to die for 25 people I don't know if she's the right girl for me. I would have my girlfriend save them instead of me, so I would hope she does the same. Of course, my answer would probably be [i]much[/i] different in the moments leading up to the decision.

Cultmeisterにより編集済み: 4/3/2014 7:28:41 PMI'm not willing to be the person that puts 25 people's families and friends through all that pain. 1 is enough, even if it was my significant other. Of course, this is just my rational non-emotion-fuelled response.

5 通の返信My wife would do the same thing I would if she was in the same situation. Save the strangers, as the other will understand.
