This is a real tough one!!

This test only has one question, but it's a very important one.. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.

The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision.

Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.

Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.



THE SITUATION:

You are in London There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding.

This is a flood of biblical proportions

You are a photo-journalist working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster.

The situation is nearly hopeless.

You're trying to shoot career-making photos.

There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing into the water.

Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.


THE TEST:

Suddenly, you see a man in the water.

He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris.

You move closer... Somehow, the man looks familiar....

You suddenly realise who it is................................................ ...............
....................It's the Muslim Cleric, Abu Hamza ..the one-eyed, hook handed nutter who hates non-muslims and wants the UK to become an Islamic State !! You notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.

You have two options:

You can save the life of Abu or you can shoot a dramatic Prize winning photo,documenting the death of one of the country's most despised, evil and powerful men!




NOW THE QUESTION:

Here's the question, and please give an honest answer...




Would you select high contrast colour film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

That is really racist and quite nasty and deserves to be removed.

Would you say the same if it was Hitler instead of Hamza???
Its the man that is hated, not the colour of his skin!!!

Maybe Kodiak was referring to Abu Hamza?

How the hell is that racist, get a life. Me personally would just shout and ask if he wanted a hand, video it and get it on Youtube.

He'd be alright anyway because his hook would snag on something before there's any danger of him getting swept away.

His hook has snagged on something,our social security system.
Not a racist post merely a statement of fact!

Although i am dead good at remembering faces it usually takes me AGES so i would be thinking - "Now - where do i know this man from....?" until about 3 hours after i had pulled him from the water. I would just have to hope that saving him might make him change his mind.

I agree, we should help out a drowning man:-

"Hey, Abu, CATCH!!"
