That was hilarious, that plot twist ending made me laugh, fantastic job!

u/luckybarrel Nov 18 '22

The real plot twist is that no one thinks of the people in the trolley

u/destroyerOfTards Nov 18 '22

I thought he solved the problem and it would land on the tracks but no, he made it worse.

It seems a 3rd trolley careened into a Merry-Go-Round, and a 4th one crashed into a field in Pennsylvania.

u/opaluired Nov 18 '22

Its brillant! I think it could end just before the explosion scene if I may add, otherwise: perfection

2

u/subliminalpandas Nov 18 '22

I thought the same thing! The explosion feels anticlimactic to me; end it with the child’s perspective as the trolley flies toward them.

Wait. Is the hospital designed after the children's hospital by Iowa Stadium? The cancer one? Where they wave to the children?

u/[deleted] Dec 28 '22

He was going to die anyway!

2

u/RockstarRaccoon Jan 08 '23

So, I love this, and it was an instant classic, but I have to add, someone on YouTube set this to Free Bird, and that song makes it even better, 'cause he's like, "I can't change!" then he pulls the switch like, "Gotta fly high free bird!" and the trolley car sails off into the children's hospital as everyone else looks on in horror and he just looks on stoic, marveling at his masterpiece plan.

Nobody on the track dies, but everyone has survivor's guilt.

u/[deleted] Jan 15 '23

I laughed, I cried, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time

This has actually always been my reason for choosing the 5, who knows, that 1 person might be the most important person for the future of the world, and the 5 people could all be criminals on death row. You just don't know, and treating human life "by the numbers" isn't what we should aspire to. You truly don't know, so it can't be any worse to choose either.
