Honest answers only, would you sacrifice your life to save two random others?

People can be greedy, and it would make sense to be greedy about wether or not you can live, but would you sacrifice yourself to save two other random people that you don't even know? Or would you rather not die and have the two people that you don't know die instead? Unless you are a very important individual, it seems self-centered to choose your life over the lives of two other people, but would you?

Hi powerbrokenape No I wouldn't die for someone whom I don't know. To me it doesn't reflect selfishness. I have responsibilities of my families too. Who'll bear that responsibilities. Come to those unknown persons. I know they have responsibilities. But I don't know why are they going to die. Even if they are suppose to die for a nobel cause, I wouldn't sacrifice them considering that my family needs me more than the cause needs me. May be that nobel cause can't be achieved in some other ways.

Good point, if your family needs you, then it might cause more damage having you die than the two other random people.

i don't really care to have my life, and if the chance were given i would take it to have my life ended, so i would give my life to save that of anyone's without a thought.

I would do all that I could to save the two people. If that meant risking my life then so be it. Life is precious but helping others is even more so.
