A plane crashes on a stranded island. You are one of one hundred survivors, all strangers. After searching around for a while, you discover that there is no source of food anywhere in sight, and everyone is in danger of starving to death.

Then, you come across a giant mountain. Since this is the only place you haven’t been to yet on the island, everyone decides that trying to climb it is the only hope left for finding some sort of food supply to survive. But this mountain is extremely dangerous to navigate, and it is uncertain if anyone will even be able to get to the top.

Fortunately for you and nine of the other survivors (five who you happen to find extremely attractive), you are expert mountain climbers. On the way up the mountain, the other 90 people try as hard as they can, but are physically unable to make it to the top. Some are old, some are young, and some are physically or mentally handicapped. Others are just not physically gifted enough to make it up.

You and the nine other climbers finally make it to the top. When you get there, you discover a giant lake, with rows of fruits, vegetables, and nuts. It is more than enough food to feed all one hundred survivors for the foreseeable future. You and the other climbers who made it are ecstatic, realizing that starvation will no longer be an issue, and that you can now relax a little.

While searching around the mountaintop, you come across a field full of grapes. The grape vines are some of the longest and strongest vines you have ever seen. Then, you remember that the other 90 survivors are still stuck down at the bottom of the mountain, and that if you tried hard enough, you could figure out a way to use these vines to help the others reach the top


Would you....

A) Use the grape vines to help the other 90 survivors make it to the top of the mountain, even though doing so would mean risking the possibility that you fall off, increasing how fast you use your food supply, and exerting lots of time and effort?

OR -

B) Go on just relaxing and living your easy life with the other climbers who made it, and say that it’s survival of the fittest, so it sucks for the rest of those who couldn’t make it to the top?

A 100%, there's no way I'd just leave the other 90 to just die

Same, I don't see any other option.

If there was a much shorter amount of food, then I would rethink it.

You'd need other people to build a society. With the best will in the world, in-breeding would destroy the future for the group. It would end up as a family stick, rather than a tree.

[Josy]

A for me too.

Could we not just take some of the fruit/food down the mountain to the ones who couldnt make it though?

A) 5 attractive members of the opposite sex do nothing for me

But I couldn't let 90 people just die.

..would it change your decision if they were 5 attractive people of the same sex then Lucas...?...actually, I'll alter that bit I think...

[Kate!]

A without hesitation.

[Ammi]

..this one doesn't pose much of a dilemma, I'll have to find a more challenging one....

..LOL, I guess there's only so much you can do for those 90 people Lucas..they have to start helping themselves a bit anyway and stop relying on you for everything...

[Kizzy]

A deffo

[joeysteele]

Without even thinking about it, I would do all I could to help the other 90 up to feast and relax as well.

[Vanessa]

A for me as well.

[Marc]

I'd eat all the grapes I could and let the others die.

Nah.. I'd help out, but we'd all just die slowly anyway...
