What if a relative died though? You said you'd push it if a relative was at risk.

I'd feel terrible if I did press it.

Do you take the risk and press the button? If so, how many times? Or if not, what if the situation was different and only people who you didn't know could die instead?

Think about the situation carefully before answering please.

Have you just watched The Box or something Enid?

If it meant someone close to me dying then no I wouldn't risk it but if it was someone I didn't know then you know what I probably would. The odds of someone dying are pretty slim so hell yeah for the money I'd do it.

Haha, nah the movie didn't even come to mind till Shaun mentioned it.

Glad people are being honest. Some of us too selfish and greedy not to press it. It's human nature.

Just think of it from the point of view that if we were all asked that question and all or most thought like you - that could put your loved ones at considerable risk - as to the vast majority of people - your loved ones would be among those they didn't know or care about! Wouldn't be so appealing then!

It's not a huge risk though is it on those odds, especially if you're only pushing the button the once, which I would. I admit it's selfish, but like Enid I admit I'm selfish and I'd want the money to look after myself and my loved ones. I don't really care about people I don't know tbh. Call me what you want, that's just the way I am. Charity begins at home with me I'm afraid.

"Charity begins at home". I completely agree. That's why I hate all these charitable events like Children in Need, lol.

I'm sorry - but it would be a horrible world if we all thought like that! What about all those unfortunate children born into bad family situations whose own family don't care about them - where would they be without others to care about them. What if a child of yours became ill - and noone else cared.

Not a world I would want to be part of!

The money is right, so it would be Rock n Roll all the way for me. About 15 million would do

[King Gizzard]

I wouldnt do it

I wouldnt be able to live with the fact that ive jeapordized someone close to me's life for money

What if only those you didn't know could die?

[King Gizzard]

I still couldnt live with it

My conscience is massive

[Jack_]

I wouldn't press it with odds of 1/10,000,000, let alone anything else.

If it was just for people I didn't know though, I think I'd press it twice. Only because I couldn't live with the thought that I killed one unlucky person, and one unlucky person only. But I think I'd probably be sick afterwards.

[Spike]

I would push it once then maybe a few time later on if I needed some cash

[Conzors]

No i wouldnt do it.

[Stacey.]

i would press it, about 10 timess,, there is just ONE personn, i really wouldnt want to diee........

[Enid]

Yes I mentioned saints, but not in the religious sense.

[Stephanie]

if it was just people who i didn't know that could die and not people close to me then i would probably press it untill the button broke.

That's not very realistic though, is it? The button is actually very sturdy and impossible to break.

This button should be on tv
