Yes, but I'm not selfless enough to do it for just anyone. I wouldn't sacrifice my life for Osama bin laden, for instance. But I also wouldn't limit such sacrifice to just my own friends or family. It would depend on the circumstance.

I don't think that's something that I could decide in advance, though I'd like to believe I'd be noble enough to step up to the plate if the situation warrants. Hopefully, I'd give my life to save a family member without hesitation.
-
Yes I would, in a heartbeat. :)

Damn good question (all the points I'm allowed to give...lol) but I don't know, nor do I think anybody else does until it happens. I feel confident that I'd step in front of a train for my child, and probably for any child, but damn....I just don't know. Would instint cause you to throw yourself in front of a car to save a drunken bum? I just don't know.

The value of another persons life, hmm, if i knew the person and i knew that, that person would be able to make a real difference in the world then he/she would probably be more valuable than me, if i knew i couldn't do it better. If it was someone i did not know or never heard of then he/she would probably have the same value as my life. I would definitely sacrifice myself to save someone only if i knew the other person was going to do something better then i would, how would i know, no idea. If it was someone i did not know at all then i probably would try and help them in every way, but not give my life.

If I thought I could save someone, I would certainly try to do everything in my power to save them, even if it put my life at risk. If someone I loved needed a kidney or something like that I would be there. To sacrifice my life so someone else could live is a different matter and I would need to know the circumstances and who was involved before I could even think about it.

I'd only sacrifice my life for my family or my best friend (if I knew I would have to die) although I would risk my life for some of my other closest friends as well provided there was a fair chance I'd live.
