I imagine by holding on I mean slipping with style...
Slipping with style? Is that like toy story "falling with style"?
but any way why ask why the baby is more important the baby has not had a chance to live life yet and isn't gonna understand whats happening.

BTW I reckon carrying the baby and child wouldn't be hard so that the child gets more chance at life. I am in no way meaning that the adult shouldn't be able to live on but if I was the adult I think that I would rather the younger ones get rescued rather than myself, atleast I hope with death approaching I wouldn't be thinking only of myself

The reason (I think) people are choosing the baby is because the baby has the most potential in the world, and saw the least of it. Letting that one die, and others live would be unfair towards the baby more than the child or the adult, the baby wouldn't have even gotten a chance to live and it'd be considered unfair to let others live who have already seen at least some of what's out in the world.

Of course, I could be completely wrong :3. I choose the baby of course.

Ahh, but by killing the child, the child is then missing out on life, so if the baby is chosen, then it will likely live past what the child lived, i.e. the child and adult end up being the ones who get less of life.

Theoretically there is no point of a baby, unless it eventually becomes an adult, therefore the baby by itself is useless without progression. So how is that potential.

Yes, but if you let the baby die there, you're robbing it of everything, it's lived nothing as it was. When you look back on memories, you don't look back to when you're 4 months old and say "remember that time.." because we can't remember any of that. You could therefore argue that it hasn't really started to live its life yet, hasn't fully developed a personality, moral judgements, etc.

How old is the baby? Child? Adult? Until then I pick E, screw these guys, I'm stuck on top of a collapsing building for some reason. I'm getting out of there.

LOL wait, why is it E, it goes "A,B,C, or E"
:sy: - myself I didn't even notice that but hey its an easy mistake to make

Yeah but dying when you have not built anything to lose, is certainly not as bad as someone having a taste of life, and then dying. They have more to lose in a way, right?

Out of the list? E

But if not I would say I would try all three, and likely fail in the process, yet I would rather die, then sacrifice.

Um ok, to each his own I guess.

I would change into my superhero costume and ftg all of them to safety. In reality I would grab the baby. If I could I would try to grab the child and the baby.

The baby hasn't had his chance in life to even make it to the age of 5 or 6. That's why I chose the baby. That isn't a real question.

The baby has not had a chance at anything. But if you save the baby, it will certainly outlive the ones you leave, as I would imagine it would be more aware from tales of the experience, and tragic moment like this happen usually once in a lifetime!

Oh gees, I never thought of it like that. But (This may not help relate too much at all) if the child does live, he would remember this traumatic event and it would warp his personality and just the way he thinks in general. Most likely in a negative way due to the situation. This is when a person is most prone to how they think themselves, during their childhood. Doing this to someone could really just turn them the wrong way.

Three people are hanging off a collapsing building who do you choose?

A: The Baby
B: The Child
C: The Adult
D: None of the above






WHY?!!
Depends. Is it the adult female and is she hot?:p

Perhaps, but in a way, it could be flattering to some. Also, could the child perhaps could use this event for the greater good, preventing others from it. And those who conquer trauma, may come out the other side a better man. Don't count the child out of the way just yet!:)
