From my perspective, first of all, I would eat everything there have, even the belt, grass and snow. Secondly, I will prevent the low temperature, which mean find the area is not very cold, and make a bonfire if I could. Finally try to connect with other like the polices, rescue team for help. However, there will have something I wouldn't do it like eat the dead people's bodies.

I think I will try to find something to eat instead of eat my friends or family. I don't want to eat people, especially they are my family or friends. I would like to try hard to start to find someone to help us or find some foods for people to eat, even though I'll die during the way, that's better than stay in the first place, and wait for death.

I agree with your point. Eating people would cause us a great sense of psychological guilt and is morally wrong.

If I were a survivor of a plane crash, first of all, I will try to look for or build a shelter. Then I must search for water and food. At the same time, I can attempt to send out distress signals by using reflective items, as fireworks. I would not panic blindly to avoid increasing the difficulty of the search and rescue operation; nor would I easily eat unknown plants or venture alone into dangerous terrain to avoid poisoning or getting injured again.

Of course, the most important thing is try to look for or build a shelter that make sure we are safe.

In my own opinion, first of all, I would like to move some patients away from the plane which had crashed. Secondly, I would like to collect all the food together and distribute it in proportion to everyone, as I'm unsure when we can expect the rescue. And then, find some communication tools with the outside and also try to get out of the area to get rescued.

If I were a survivor, I might have to eat people to stay alive if there is no food. I could try other ways first, like eating plants or insects, but if nothing work, I must do that. I wouldn’t want to, but life is important. We should try everything we can do to survive together.

I agree with that, try everything we can do to survive is most important for us.

I would have tried to stay calm and work with others to find shelter and food. I will eat other people's body, I am a selfish person.

First, I will try my best to restrain myself and calm down. Then, I will go with my friends to look for plants or other things that can be used around. Even if it means causing the plane to explode to draw attention, I still refuse to eat the corpses of my companions.
