This is a question that my teacher asked me on class of philosophy.
You are in a situation where your son is playing under a lift bridge which is up and the train with 200 passengers is coming, and you are supposed to fall the bridge down, but if you do it your son will be flatten.
You have time only for one action:
1. Save your son, and let the train crash and kill 200 passengers. or
2. Fall the bridge when the passengers life and the train saves, but your son dies.
Which one would you choose?
