there was a case of cannibalism in andies in 1977. A plane crashed in the andies and the surviviors were there for a 2 or 3 months. In order to survive they had to resort to cannibalism. Unfortunatly whether you accept it or not if you are starving enough you will eat anything. I like to think I would not do that because if you survive you have to live with it with the rest of your life.

If you during a hardship show a side of yourself contary to your beliefs, you never truly believed. You find out who your real friends are during hardships- they say. But you also find out who you really are.
People come up with strangest questions, as if staying alive should always be no.1 priority. To me there are principles and reasons more important than life itself.
All throughout history, people with principles risked their lives for what they believed in. Because what is life if you have nothing to live for?
So no, I would never eat another being. This belief defines who I am. If I did it, I wouldnt know how to go on or why. I dont live life at any cost.

No way. I made peace with my impending death long long ago. The most important thing to me now is my integrity, and that would be out the window if I became a cannibal. As I wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror respectfully after eating someone, I would probably just take a long lonely walk to my death.

I would very much like to swear that I would not. However, I don't think anyone can really give an answer unless they find themselves in such a situation. When faced with death, a person will do almost anything to stay alive.
Pray to God we never have to find out the real answer.

You don't know unless your in that situation but most people would if they were in that situation because its all about survival and human instinct. It has happened before when a plane went down somewhere I can't remember where and they ate the dead to stay alive.

No, I would start looking for grubs , insects ,berries, ants and leaves. Even if I had to dig way down in the snow. If I couldn't because I was injured I'd just make my peace with God and go to sleep. I hope a dead person would never everl ook good for me to eat..I'd just as soon die first.

Well in the andes they ate meat and they were still alive. But what Alferd Packer was very notorious because he ate 4 of his friends. Don't do what alferd packer did. But in case of an emergency if you're on a island, crashed on a mountain or a boat lost at sea, I would do it.

Let's hope I would NEVER be in a position to have to make that decision. I always said I would never eat a spider, or a rat, or a snake but I'd definitely eat them BEFORE I had to eat another person.
Perhaps I could volunteer myself as protein - yes, I'd do that.

Depends on who I'm eating and if they look tasty or not.
Chances are I'd try dirt and grass before I resulted to cannibalism.

So pleased we all don't have the same morals as many of the answers here. If you choose to eat someone to stay alive over leaving them to live its saying you are the most important person alive.
Of course not, i'd die of starvation.
