Could you do it ?

Watching vertical limit just now on channel 5.
Theres a girl a guy and their father hanging on a rope , its about to giveway due to too much weight.
The father asks the son to cut him free , letting him fall to his death , but saving his son and daughter.
It was pretty tense , but made me think could i do that in the same situation?
The father told his son theyd all die if he wasnt cut free , and he was right.
But could you do that if you had to ?

Why were they all hanging from a rope?

jeeze leg that is a very tough won to answer and I do remember reading in the papers about that as it was a true story I think and do not think that anybody could say truthefully what they would do in that senario (yea so wat I cant smell) as it would have to be a split second decision and if in that position you would not know what to do unless you was put in it and the mountain is k2 and I have k2 as my number plate and mrs pedro has k3 and the initiales after that match on k2 and k3.
God how sad is that

I would like to think I would have the courage to do that, I could if it was choice between me and my son

I'd never go climbing, either! I wimp out on a ladder, too. If it came to it, though, I know I'd give my life for my son - aah. Love him to bits!!
