Zebbraa So you and your mom are in a Helicopter. It's gonna crash and there's only one parachute. Do you give the parachute to her or take it for yourself? We'd both die in the end, because I'd keep telling her to take it, but she'd keep telling me I should take it. Very nice. 3nodding

Yeah, I'd take the parachute in every instance with the exception of my mother. However I have a feeling my mom would find a way to put me in the parachute no matter what choice I made there. I have no reason for this answer except that it is an honest one. I'd like to say I'd be self sacrificing and give it up to someone, but the truth of the matter is when it comes down to it I'm just like any other animal, and that means self preservation is the natural choice. And even though I am not a self sacrificing sort of person, I like to think my honesty in these matters counts for a little something. At least if any of you are in a plane with me and only one parachute you all know I'm going to fight you for it when the plane starts going down. Good thing for everyone, I try not to fly very often xd .

I dont know these people. and i have a right to save myself. but for family members is a different story. although my mom wouldn't let me give it to her, i would still put it on her and throw her out.

I mean, in none of these cases would any of them "deserve" death anymore than you would. in the same light, you wouldnt "deserve" to live anymore than they would. I'm just being picky with the wording. smile

I would give the parachute to Bush. Regardless of my opinion of him, he is more important to the country than I am.
My mother would probably insist that I take it, whether I wanted to or not.
In the case of the other three, I would take it. Survival of the Fittest.

In each case I would probably give them the parachute, simply because If I lived and they died I could not live with the guilt. (i have a strong conscience) In an idyllic situation, though, we could always share the parachute....
Here's a joke There are 5 people in the aircraft that is going down and only 4 parachutes. The people are a little boy, a grandfather, a secret agent, George Bush, and a mother of 5. The mother of 5 says 'I need the parachute because my children will die without me. ' She grabs a pack and jumps. the secret agent says 'i have information that may stop another 9/11 attack' and grabs a pack and jumps. George bush knows there is no reason why he should live so he just grabs a pack and jumps. The grandfather sighs and says to the little boy 'son, I've had a long life and yours is just beginning so I guess you'd better take the last chute...' 'don't worry, old man,' says the boy, 'George bush didn't take a parachute, he took my backpack instead!' blaugh

For all of them besides my mom I would take it. If it was my mom we'd probably both die after arguing over who would get the parachute...

In all of these situations I would feel its right to give the parachute to the other person.
Why? Because I am ok if I die. I don't mean I'm suicidal or anything. I just value other peoples lives more than my own because I am secure with whats gonna happen after I die.
In the case of my mom I would put the parachute on her and throw her out because I would rather my mom lived. I don't really have a good reason other that I feel that it would morally be right.

So you and George W. Bush are in a Helicopter. It's gonna crash and there's only one parachute. Do you give the parachute to him or take it for yourself? Mine.
So you and your mom are in a Helicopter. It's gonna crash and there's only one parachute. Do you give the parachute to her or take it for yourself? I would try to give it to her but she would refuse it, so I'd have to shove it on her and then push her out to safety.
So you and this hippie are in a Helicopter. It's gonna crash and there's only one parachute. Do you give the parachute to him or take it for yourself? Depends, not all hippies are the same. I'd probably give it to them though.
So you and successful businessman are in a Helicopter. It's gonna crash and there's only one parachute. Do you give the parachute to him or take it for yourself? Depends on what he's working toward. If it's something bad then the 'chute is mine. If not then he can have it.
So you and a group of tourists are in a Helicopter. It's gonna crash and there's only one parachute. Do you give the parachute to one of them or take it for yourself? I'd give it away.
Why? I don't view myself as really able to contribute to society. I'd want someone who can make a difference to live, I'd make 'em swear to work towards something good before handing over the 'chute though. Even though they'd probably lie just to live.....
