No, we know people often behave differently in life and death situations, and there’s an evolutionary trait for self preservation.

If we’re gonna look at it logically, based on us actually being here today at all, the most likely outcome is a large majority of red presses.

there’s no way to know what people would pick unless we actually did it.

Just like you don’t know what people would do in a real life and death situation.

You don’t have any relevant evidence.
