    Inaccurate.
    Reality:
    Rich man behind lever pulls it to kill rich man on the tracks so he can take his money bags. Then he switches the lever back to both minimize disruption to trolley service and eliminate witnesses, both of which would reduce rich man’s public image.

    The embarrassing truth is that I genuinely never did consider what it would be like to be tied to the tracks.

      What do you mean, I consider that the best position to be in the Trolley Problem. No real responsibilities, no moral culpability, either you die quick or have a wild story to tell. Wins all around.
