Five people are trapped in a dead end. A cart filled with explosives is rolling toward them. In ten seconds they would all die.
You have two simple options.
1) Push someone into the path of the cart
2)Let them die
If you push the person into the path, the impact would stop the cart from killing the five but it would be death to the person you push.
Which is better, killing one man or five men in this situation?
Choose option one or two.

You should do nothing.
You are not choosing to kill the 5 people with the cart, but you are choosing to throw the man in front of it.
The noble thing to do would be to throw yourself in front of the cart in order to save the lives of the 5.
A murderer is a murderer whether it's one person or 10.
Well I wouldn't do either I would run the way of the cart. There would most likely be room on the path to get past. But if I really had to choose I would let them die because If I pushed the person in front then that would be called murder
Just Jump Over the Cart
well, seeing as how the carts don't usually take up all the room in the tunnel, you could all just run around it and duck and cover.
If that's not possible then everyone should die, and probably would cuz people would all be fighting : Frank:"throw Jimmy! he's anoying!" Jimmy: "no, Bob! He's useless!" Bob:"F U Jimmy! STFU! I don't want to die! Kill Jimmy!!!" Jimmy: "F that! Hey, Bill and Joe are being pretty quiet, let's kill them! They don't even care!!" Bill & Joe: *silent frightened stares* Jimmy: "on three, we'll throw em in! 1!!!! .....2!!!....." *10 seconds has passed, the cart comes, they all die"
Well your final question is ridiculous. 5 deaths are worse than 1. But nobody would jump in front of the cart. e
i liked the version where the kids play on the track instead.
It was an easier descision to make.
In this case i am more inclined to pushing someone onto the track, if i'm one of the five and do nothing if i'm just watching
walk around the cart obviously how did they get there in the first place??
You not responsible for killing the 5 - so dont go murdering someone else.....
sorry this seems selfish but option 1
option 1, deff.
