What to do if your plane is about to crash

You are one of a group of people on board an airplane. Suddenly the pilot enters the cabin and says you are about to crash. Sadly there is only one parachute left.

Pessimist:
You refuse the parachute because you might die in the jump anyway.

Optimist:
You refuse the parachute because people have survived jumps like this before.

Bureaucrat:
You order a feasibility study on parachute usage in a multi engine aircraft under code red conditions.

Internal Revenue Service:
You confiscate the parachute along with the luggage, wallets and gold filings.

Engineer:
You make another parachute out of curtains and dental floss.

Mathematician:
You refuse to accept the parachute without proof that it will work in all cases.

Philosopher:
You ask how we can know the parachute actually exists.

Psychoanalyst:
You ask what shape the parachute reminds them of.

Dramatist:
To tie them down so that they can watch you develop the character of a person stuck on a falling plane without a parachute.

Artist:
You hang the parachute on a wall and sign it.

Environmentalist:
You refuse to take the parachute unless it is biodegradable
