Killer chasing victim - would you help?

[kirklancaster]

I recently watched a documentary where a beautiful young girl who had been abducted and beaten and raped by a Serial Killer, escaped from the boot of his car on a lonely desert road. As she ran along the road, half-naked, bloodied and distraught, he was in close pursuit and armed with a meat cleaver. Incredibly, a car came along towards the poor girl and she grabbed its wing mirror as it slowed to a halt. The old man driving the car had obviously stopped to help her, but his equally as elderly wife who was sat in the passenger seat, STARTED TO PUNCH HIM AND TOLD HIM TO DRIVE ON!!!!!

The old man complied and left the poor victim behind as the serial killer closed in, but thankfully - and against the odds - another car came along full of young men who did rescue her and the killer fled.

My question to you is; On a lonely desert road and faced with the psycho killer armed with a cleaver close by, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE? Be honest.

[Mystic Mock]

I'm not the hero type so I'd save the girl only under the conditions that I have at least a 40% chance of survival.

And if it was an overweight girl then I'll let Marcus save her.

She was actually slim and beautiful poor girl, but both are eclipsed by her courage.

[hijaxers]

I would have stopped, got the girl in the car and then i would put my foot to the pedal and run the bastard over and park on top of him - no escape !

[Mystic Mock]

Well lucky girl in the sense of that she didn't have to rely on the 60% chance of me helping her.:joker:

But I'm happy that she's okay, did the killer get caught?

You don't know unless you are actually faced with such a situation I suppose. I would like to think I would feel I would have to help and that I made the right choice. Sometimes you have to put yourself at risk or in a bit of danger to help others. Someone covered in blood could be the attacker rather than the victim I suppose. If I had seen the attacker going after the girl, of course I wouldn't hesitate to help her in that situation. If it was dark, the elderly couple might not have seen the man in pursuit wielding the cleaver so not known who they were letting into their car.

[smudgie]

No way could I just drive by..that could have been my daughter, and I would hope somebody would help her in those circumstances.

Only years later Mock, after monumental cock-ups by the cops and after he'd butchered other poor women. What pisses me off is that they commuted his death sentence to life imprisonment. :shrug:

[Liam-]

Yes I would, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I drove by someone being chased like that and then they wound up dead. be it a man or a woman, there's no way in hell would I leave them there, I'd rather risk my own life and save them than just let them die.

Just as long as he never gets out to hurt anyone else is good enough for me.

It's a shame that the Police took so long to catch him though.

Depends on the circumstances. If my kids were in the car I wouldn't risk them by stopping. If I was on my own, I would try to help. However I'm not stupid enough to assume that I could just jump out and Batman-ninja a cleaver waving maniac so I'd first and foremost go for the sensible option: let her into the car and then ****ing floor it :joker:.

[RichardG]

If both the killer and the victim were on foot with no car nearby to get in to and chase me, and I was in a car with time to stop and pick the victim up and shoot off into the distance away from the killer, then yeah I'd like to say I would do that. You can never say for sure what you'd do though because getting involved could be bad for you because the killer might recognise you then come to your house the next day and stab you in a revenge attack or something. D: Or maybe I'm thinking too much into it lol...

I wouldn't do anything for sure if I was on foot though!!

:laugh::laugh::laugh: Your honesty and.... timidity really kill me Richard. You are mint. (The girl would probably end up rescuing you. :laugh:)

[Kyle]

I'd shank him like but that's easy for me to say I'm hardest person on forum me

[Crimson Dynamo]

number 1 you protect yourself and family and number 2 you help her

[Niamh.]

I'm guessing people who would drive on may fear that it was some sort of scam to get you to stop.

[Ammi]

..I would probably drive to a safer place and away from the cleaver person and then stop and call for help..I don't know though if instincts would make me stop if it was a real situation, that's the thing I think with many people.../no thought but an instinct...

Never thought of that. Mmmm, you could be right because this probably happens in the USA.

Yeah, but if it was just you and your wife?

[Xtopher]

I doubt it. Since I don't drive and if he has something on him I would be far away as possible. Sorry girl.

not you posting Brenda gifs on my behalf :hee:

[LukeB]

yeah i would help in some way

[Ashley.]

I'd call the police lol

[Northern Monkey]

Sounds like that man was more scared of his wife than he was of the cleaver wielding serial killer.I know the feeling tbh.

[armand.kay]

Idk I would be scared that the girl is in cahoots with the killer and this is all an elaborate ruse to somehow kill me... But faced with the situation I think I would help.

That was my first thoughts too :laugh:

[LukeB]

the police won't arrive in time :worry:

[Marsh.]

I couldn't have just left the girl there and done nothing, even if I went to lengths to avoid myself getting hurt.

My conscience wouldn't let me.

Oh I have a solution how about I run over the axe murderer guy with my car, then the girl is safe and I'm not risking getting me or anyone in the car with me hurt :eureka:

Damn it!

[Marsh.]

"Windshield"

I watch too much US TV. :worry:

I've even stopped pronouncing progress as "prowgress" :worry:

[Ninastar]

I'd like to say that I would, but in these situations, you never know. It reminds me of when we lost my grandma in a house fire. My grandad came home, tried to save her but couldnt. He ran onto the main road by his house to get help and 3 cars drove past before anyone stopped. I think people probably got scared or freaked out by him, which is understandable. He could have been anyone.

I'm so paranoid from hearing things where people fake something, like being robbed, so that you help them, only for them to rob you (or worse) themselves. But I think if I saw a young girl, running around half naked and terrified, I'd do as much as I could to help.

[Cal.]

I'm guessing people who would drive on may fear that it was some sort of scam to get you to stop.

Yeah. Around my area there were scams such as babies being left in car seats by the side of the road until a woman stopped and then a gang robbing/raping her. So you don't know if it's a scam.

You could run the guy over I guess?

[Marsh.]

What if you ran the guy over and then Noel Edmond's came out of the bushes and you took a prank TV show too seriously? :omgno:

[Ashley.]

the police won't arrive in time :worry:

then i'd step on his shoelaces.

[Niamh.]

Noel Edmonds fault :fan:

[DemolitionRed]

I would like to think that I would react on my instincts and that would be, to save the girl. Would we really stop and ponder our own safety? I think we'd more likely act on instinct to help someone in distress.

When my sister was attacked with a knife, it was another woman who came to her aid and restrained her attacker. The woman (who's gone on to become a good friend of my sister) received some fairly nasty stab wounds to her hands but there's no doubt that she was the person who ultimately saved her life. If it hadn't been for her, my sister would just be another statistic.

[Kazanne]

No way could I just drive by..that could have been my daughter, and I would hope somebody would help her in those circumstances.

This^ you'de have to be some kind of coward to drive on.

[kirklancaster]

Noel Edmonds fault :fan:

:laugh: What if you ran Noel Edmunds over - would the tyre marks give him a Crinkley Bottom?:hehe:

He should have chucked the nasty old biddy out and gone off with the young and beautiful girl.:hehe:

I wonder if the old biddy wouldn't let the girl in the Car because she was beautiful?:joker:

[kirklancaster]

:laugh2::laugh2::laugh2: (If she was hitting me like that, I'd have took the cleaver from the killer and used it on her. :hehe:)

[Niamh.]

Yes I'm sure the beautiful young girl would love to go off into the sunset with a wrinkly old man :unsure:

[kirklancaster]

Yes I'm sure the beautiful young girl would love to go off into the sunset with a wrinkly old man :unsure:

:laugh: True though.

[Mystic Mock]

Yes I'm sure the beautiful young girl would love to go off into the sunset with a wrinkly old man :unsure:

But her other option was me.... I mean the killer with the Cleaver.:hehe:

[Northern Monkey]

I mean she might not ride off into the sunset with him but he atleast deserves a blowie for his troubles.The fact that he's upset the wife and she probably won't be giving him any favours for a while too.
