There are four men working on a train track. A train is coming towards them fast. It is going to hit and kill all four. This is a certainty. For this scenario, you just have to accept it as fact. You are standing on an overpass, too far away to yell, or warn the track workers in any way. You do have immediate access to a switch that would switch the train to another track. There is one worker on the other track that will be killed if you pull it.

Do you do it?

It is the same scenario. Four men are working on a train track. Only this time, you are standing on an overpass with a large man. If you push the man off, he will fall in front of the train. Because of hitting the man, the train stops in time to save the four workers on the track ahead.

Do you push him off?

This is not a trick or anything. Don’t over analyze, just answer what your first feeling is. I’m curious.
