The Trolley Problem.
There's a train heading straight and sadly on its path are 5 strangers you've never seen before tied to the railway. If the train continues it's path it will kill all 5 of them.
But you then appear to be standing near a lever. Pulling that lever will make the train change track and onto a different one. But sadly again on the new path you've caused it to travel there's 1 stranger you've never seen before tied onto the new path.
So the moral dilemma is this: would you just stand there doing nothing and let the train kill all those 5 strangers OR would you pull the lever and cause the train change path into killing the 1 stranger on the new path you set out?
