I can say 95% I would not..... I guess im selfish like that ...I think it would take a very different person to do that....

I like to think so for any member of family and my really close personal friends. For a complete stranger? Maybe a child or pregnant woman or something...

Again, I like to think so. But no one actually knows how they would react or what they would do in the type of situation.

Yeah, I might for the right person.....give me a verifiable story, I might !

I've lived long enough already....been alive for as long as I can remember, don't have a happy life, haven't been happy since about 1995. I don't care if I die !

The question is would somebody other than family give their life for you or I? I would say 95% wouldn't when it came right down to it in a real life situation.

I think its almost ignorant to do it for someone you dont know. to me, that means you put little importance on your life.. you only get one...

If I had a son or daughter I would, like most, and my fiance, I would, although i wouldn't want her to do the same for me....

But even my closest friends who I care for, I don't think I could. I value life too much and I have so much more I would like to accomplish. I think it's ok to be selfish in this regards and think that your life is just as valuable as others....

Plus, If I was going to go out, I wouldn't be going out in that fashion...

I would be robbing banks, giving money to everyone I could, then I would either have a cop take me out, or do it myself... granted this is ONLY if I HAD to die. No WAY I choose to take my life for some unknown joe.
