A guy turns up... With a box. He opens it too reveal a button. You have the option, press it, you receive a million...but someone unknown to you dies.. Would you press it? |

Hmmm... someone unknown to me dies every second so on that logic it shouldn't matter to me if I press the button. Something else I have done may have caused someone unknown to me to die (driving my car and creating pollution, for instance).
Tonight, I'm going to press the button.

I never looked at it this way lickety... But their death would most certainly be the result, of you pressing the button. |

Knowing my luck if I said yes, just as im getting the million, someone else would be offered a box, say yes and I would be the unknown.

In reality a million tins of spam would stand you in good stead... Is it about £2.00 a tin |

I don't even mind that scenario. My loved ones will have enough to buy somewhere for each of the children (now before the prices get too out of hand). I'm not that attached to me being alive.

I would as long as you decorated the box a little brown sounds boring. Oh make sure the millions in cash can't have the bank asking questions now can we |

"no
a lottery on who dies?- says alot about what money must do for some people."
It's not a lottery on who dies it's on a random stranger dying. Somebody will die whether you press or not you'll only get a million if you do |

Isn't it someone will be killed because of your decision ? It's not a random stranger just keeling over. By pressing the button you have effectively killed someone. |

Yes it is but saying it's a lottery on who dies suggests to me that you decided who would die |

If that came into the equation I don't think people would be so willing to press the button I know I wouldn't |

It'd make it easier for me. If you press the button and a five year old child dies then that's dreadful, but if you had the choice you could choose some evil bastard. |

To play devil's advocate...simply put, a million pounds, if invested, could save many lives over the future - is it a small sacrifice, if you don't know any of them?
Obviously the above is all in context, people are dying every minute all over the world, so you could do so much good with the money if you were brave... |

It depends on my personal circumstances at the time and how desperate I was for the money.
If someone was in dire financial difficulties etc, and I mean really desperate, I could see why they would press it.
A few months ago, that kind of money would of saved my marriage, so yes, at the time I would of pressed.
Now, no, I wouldn't. |

"There was a film adaptation a few years back with this exact premise, starring Cameron Diaz.
It was unsurprisingly called The Box."
I would be very disappointed if I saw a film with Cameron Diaz called the box I would be hoping for a very different type of film...
As to OP's question, probably yes, don't know for sure though. |

It rather reminds me of a tale I read of Idi Amin's jails. A chap would be given a sledge hammer and told if he battered a prisoner to death he'd go free. If he did it, he'd be left in the cell for a moment, whilst another guy in a different cell was being handed a sledge hammer and told to make a decision.
I'd expect to be the next person bumped off when someone pressed the button |

Yes the box with Cameron Diaz... At the beginning I thought press it press it...
She pressed it.. It caused so much heartbreak, their son was rendered blind and deaf... Their option. Hubby could shoot wife and their son returned to his old self. She of course, wanted him to kill her. He had hold of the gun ... But the box had been passed on they pressed the button .. He slipped and shot her. The son returned to normal. The husband of course was arrested.., so the son was left alone anyway...
Got me thinking ok press it... It's a stranger that dies... Someone you don't know. Soooo
Assume it's a close relative they are ...pregnant perhaps with with your grandchild? This would be Someone you don't know or have yet? To meet? Could they be the chosen recipient..
Ha I think too much |
