...suicide bomber! this is blindingly obvious with the bulky ruck sack and the phone call they just had saying in a hushed voice "i will detonate it in 5 mins!"

**What would you do? save all the innocent people around you by alerting them, or try to be a hero and confront the bomber?**

I would actually ring the police and let them know the next tube station, then they can arrest the s.o.b. at the station and everyones saved. i'd be running outta the station though the second the tube stopped. obviously i mentioned 5 minutes till detonation. would it be long enough?

think "this is gonna hurt isn't it"
confronting a suicide bomber may prompt him/her to detonate.
trying to warn people without him/her noticing is not as easy as u think. in fact its next to impossible.
the israelis came up with the most practical solution, but it means risking giving up a few lives to save many. the idea is to attack that person so that he/she does not have time to detonate immediately and the people there know to get out if u can or help subdue him/her, depending on ur capability. this has the highest possibility of saving more lives.

The correct procedure would be to move away from him and to an exit door.As the train pulls up and the door is open you can then alert the other passengers.
This will give him less time to detonate the device should it be a lengthy procedure.
Warning ppl too early will make the bomber aware and he may decide to detonate ealier than originally planned.

I would suggest it is foolhardy to attack the bomber.This will encourage him to detonate when there was always the possibilty he may decide not to go ahead.Wrestling with the bomber could also destabilise the material and force detonation.

If you are certain that he is armed with such a device and there is no other avenue to protect you and other innocents from certain disaster ,then im sure a sharp implement through his throat followed by restraining his arms would be the only option remaining.

Wow such a big question for this time. its funny how people didnt think of these things before 9/11, and now its the biggest fear of flying. oh my god its a bomber on my plane. Now days people are to cowardly to face something like that knowing they'll die. I wouldnt try and save innocent people, heck if their flying ot some other place, they sure as hell arent innocent, and to comfront a bomber? its not heoric, its more stupidity and mindless. Nobody has the mind power to fight off a bomber thinking their going to die. flight 93 was an example. they didnt just get up and start attacking when they were hijacked, it took alot of talking and planning before anyone got the courage built up to take control. heroism, maybe, but definatley act of desperation. They were going to die, they sucked it up and made it quicker. So i ask you this, what would you do? be a hero or be a victum? either way your going to die. lets say this, the palne is for ransom, and no one else beside those of you on the plane are going to die oaky, and the hijakers killed the pilots, would you still get up and fight? or would you be human and wait for someone else to act?

I wouldn't confont the bomber - he could just detonate without warning. I'd leave, and alert as many people as I could without drawing attention to the fact that I'm on to him. If we were heading for a station, I would confront him - I'd go for which ever option would have the least causalties.

do the bomber........ what other optin would anyone make. if u do him good, he cant detonate , then when the cops, and army arrive, and they open the bag, and pull out his new puppies, you will be a kinda hero, till u get sacked for racisim, but that will help u get legal aid when firstly him, then his family then there country all sue youre ***.
oh and you might get a lenthy jail spell, just to show all the immigrants that we punish harshly both ways.but at least you will get an open jail where hookers pop in to relieve the stress and tension,lol.

grab his arms and get someone to open the ruck sack, he can't detonate without using his arms. If there was a bomb in the bag I'd take the bag off him then kick the fck out of him till the police arrived.

If I knew for certain and I had the means, I would kill him/her instantly. This would be to save all of us- self-defense.
