Can anybody think of an event from history - not the Mignonette case! - that mirrors the structure of the standard trolley problem?

@PhilosophyExp@SubManUSN Is not slightly different as they are saving themselves rather than others? In 'trolley' actor is disinterested
@johnthejack @SubManUSN It's actually closest to "The Case of the Speluncean Explorers": http://bit.ly/14088Ws

@PhilosophyExp@SubManUSN Yes, that's pretty much the Mignonette case, isn't it? -
@johnthejack@SubManUSN Yes, it's basically a thought experiment that mirrors the Mignonette case. Then different legal opinons given. -
@PhilosophyExp@SubManUSN Which doesn't get us any further in our search for a real life trolley case. Hehe.
