Would you kill one person to save five?

Put yourself to the test at the Trolley Problem virtual experience. 

Trolley Problem asks whether the driver of a runaway train should divert the train away from a track with five people on it onto a track with just one person. During a 45min Virtual Reality experience, immerse yourself into various ‘levels’ of the trolley problem. Making increasingly complex moral decisions, and discussing your decisions with a partner and facilitators from the University of Nottingham. 

Explore the VR Trolley Problem in pairs. There are a maximum of 6 players (3 sets of pairs) for each slot.
