Classic Trolly Problem
A trolley is barreling down a track toward a fork in the track. One one side, 5 people are tied up. On the other side, one person is tied up. All you can do is pull a lever to change the track. If you do nothing, it will kill the 5 people, if you pull the lever, it will kill the one person.
