Filmed with a Sony NEX-VG30 camcorder at 60 fps. Special thanks to the ten Lego minifigures who volunteered to be crash test dummies.

The trolley problem asks the philosophical question of whether it would be better to send a locomotive crashing into one person instead of several. I wanted to point out that there are actually more than two possible outcomes depending on when the switch is pulled. If the lever is flipped while the middle of the train car is passing over the points, it is possible to send the bogeys onto both tracks, resulting in the worst possible damage. If the switch is pulled while the wheels of the car are traversing over the points, it is possible to derail one of the bogeys, bringing the trolley to a stop without it crashing or running into anyone.
