- It has finally happened: the end of the earth as we know it. A nuclear attack has started and it is expected that within the next two hours the entire earth will be destroyed. In preparation for such an event, an underground bunker was developed that will hold ten people and sustain them for five years until they can then leave the bunker and begin life back on earth. By that time the radiation will be within a range that humans can live. You have been chosen to lead the next group that will begin the world anew. You may be saved. You must decide who will survive and live in the bunker with you. Which of the following will you choose? Why would you choose those people? Remember that you may only choose 9 people other than yourself. If you choose more, then all of you will die as there are only supplies for 10 people in the bunker.
