Poll: You and a friend are Mountain Climbing (Moral Dilemma)

[TheRundownRabbit]

I would say that I would die in place my friend if I could so that he could live.

 

[Souldemon8]

Snip Snip

 

[Skuffyshootster]

Cut the rope.

We are alone, so I could just say it was an accident, and no one would ever be the wiser.

you don't watch much CSI do you?

Spoiler

I watch the orginal, and best, CSI.

Those spin-offs can suck me.

 

[Little Duck]

I wouldn't try and save my friend. I'd succeed.

 

[MR.Spartacus]

Cut the rope... duh.


Okay seriously though I'd try to save him. I'm fairly certain that failing and dying would be better than the guilt of killing a friend. I'm just assuming your guaranteed "You both die if you try" was due to your phrasing it poorly.
Edit: Thankfully I have an intense fear of heights so no chance of this.

 

[sauerkraus]

For any friend, I would cut the rope. Luckily I would never take my girl with me while rock climbing.

 

[ICantBelieveItGoesBoom]

I would try and fail to bring him back up. I honour human life too much.

 

[joshthor]

how fat is my freind that i cant pull him up!? all of my freinds are much, much smaller than me.

 

[FoolKiller]

Way to many factors to consider. If i decided that it was both of us or just him, i'd cut the rope.

2-2=0
2-1=1

1 is more than 0.

Math. Its irrefutable.

I bow to this logic. And to quote House:
"if you don't think your life is worth more than anyone else's then sign your donor card and kill yourself"

Cut the rope. It doesn't matter which of my friends it is, I'd cut the bloody rope.
But really, I'd never be moutian climbing, thus avoiding the senerio all together.
Though I have a few friends that , as long as they fell first, their guts would make great cushioning.

Damn man, that's cold.

Cold? Yes.
Logical? Also yes.
I probably wouldn't live, but I'd be less squished, I think.

Falling doesn't squish you.... If you've ever seen 'In Bruges' then you'd know what falling a fair distance will do to you.

(Your legs(Or whatever hit the ground first) will literally 'implode/explode' - it's a very gruesome death.)

... wow. That's... horrifying.
I don't think I can sleep tonight.
I was perfectly content thinking I'd just be turned into people pudding.

 

[Dunn159]

Id try and save my friend! My friends mean everything to me!

 

[Macgyvercas]

Cut the rope. If I'm alive, at least I could bring a search party later to find his body and give him a decent burial.

 

[Mstrswrd]

I wouuld cut the rope. Then I would say (to no-one) "Sorry dude, but you should know better then to trust me with your life in a situation where that life might be in danger." Then, get safe and take a break, steel my nerves, and then climb down.

 

[Tireseas_v1legacy]

I'd probably cut the rope before it even tightened after the fall.

 

[Deleted]

I would kill my friend if it meant saving my own. Sorry thats just how it is, anyone woud value their own life over someone else's or else they're confused.

Yes, I think if I was to fall a far distance - that I would prefer turning into people pudding as well. Sorry if I made you loose any sleep, lmfao

When it suddenly takes a turn for the worst, you both fall, this leaves you on a small ledge, with your friend dangling injured on a rope that connects the two of you, over a ravine.

The weight of your friend is pulling you down, and in a few seconds you might be pulled off and both go tumbling into the abyss.

Would you cut the rope, almost definetly killing your friend, or leave the rope intact and try and pull your friend up, which would almost definetly result in both of you dying.

Cut the rope cause you know the guy will just walk out of the ravine and down from the mountain.

Now if only you hadn't burned his clothes...
