?Analysis of the Decision-Making Process?

Our decisions can bear consequences that carry throughout the day, throughout our careers, and throughout our lives.

You all sprint until the sound has passed. Behind you, a large boulder has pinned the leg of a companion. Despite all your efforts, the boulder cannot be lifted or moved. The cliff that you are on may or may not give way from added weight of the debris. Unfortunately, you are miles away from any rescue assistance, and it appears that you only have two options. You can leave your friend, to the chance that the cliff might give way, and go for help. Or you can somehow detach the leg, rendering him disabled indefinitely, but sparing his life.
