If there is a house burning by the fire and there are 4 people get caught by fire and there are a kid, a pretty woman, an old lady and a man and you only can save one of them and the others will die, you will save which one?

Please mention why do you save the person you choose.

I would say the kid.

Absolulty the child. Child hasnt had a chance to live the life as an adult, or even had the chance to fullfill God's will. All other adults have had the chance, if they did then great, if not, hopefully God will give them another chance. If I was one of those in the fire, id want you to save my children before me, if i havent already.LOL

"Who" is irrelevant in this situation. If you have that choice it means you have reached all fo them all at the same time - which means you can get all of them to help each other to get out (you probably carry the child and the other two follow you while helping the old lady)

A person DOES NOT make a decision who to save first BEFORE going into a house fire. If the house is burning and full of smoke, you will save the first person you come across because you will also need to get out as quickly as possible as well - otherwise you will also be another victim.

Sorry to spoil your question - but these type of questions are not realistic in real-life decision making process

It depends. Do I know any of these people? Is the old woman my grandmother, is the kid the bully who taunts my kid.... Do I need to carry them? If so can I realistically pick up the man? Are all four people equally easy to rescue -- i.e is the pretty woman in the front doorway and the kids up 3 flights of stairs?

I'd probably save the first person I came across.

I would save them all. I just know i can do it. I would tell the kid to jump on the Man's back and tell the old lady to grab the pretty ladies hand bust them all out. ok, I guest it would be the kid, or who ever is the closest.

I would say the child too. I guess because it should have a chance at a full life. Not to say it's worth more than anyone elses but it is totally innocent and defenseless. I would probably try to save the old lady next.

This is very hard to imagine. Only being able to save one of four. At first I think to myself, I will save whoever is easiest to pull out before I too am in danger of dying. Then I thought, I can't leave a child inside a burning building. Just can't do it, even if they're on the top floor, the ceiling above me is collapsing, etc. It just feels "wrong" not to focus all my intentions on trying to save the child.... Can't quite pinpoint what it is, but perhaps it is maternal instinct, in my case.

I would save the kid, because the kid has to grow up and know what life is like in the older years of life, teenager life and adulthood is important for children

most would say the kid because he/she has a long ahead.
fait enough but
i would save the pretty woman as then she could (i light of almost dying) would decide lifes to short settledown ansd have more children. that cancelling out the child's death and making up for the deathof the other two(she'll have 4 children)

the kid would be first but after that i would most likely die because i would try and save the others

I would save the kid, also. He still has to grow and learn about life.
