Hypothetically speaking, if your death would save the life of one or more complete strangers that you know nothing about, how many people would need to be saved (if any) in order for you to give up your own life?

EDIT: Your death would be painless and instantaneous.

    Is every second person on this fucking website suicidal? I guess the “lemmings” checks out.

    As for me, it would have to be a number of people that, by their sudden absence, manifestly affects the life of people I do know and care about. Like, at least a billion.

      If they ask someone else, you’d better hope that other person doesn’t think like you - for your sake and the sake of people you care about.
