Family, friends... 100%. I once told my drunk suicidal friend with a loaded gun (no clip, just one in the chamber) that if he really wanted to kill someone to point the gun at me. I meant it.

Total strangers... If it's a read and react situation, I'm doing what I can. In the apartment complex I used to live in, one of the top floor appts caught fire in the building next to mine. On this floor was an old woman in a wheelchair who couldn't use the stairs. The power was out, so no elevator. My buddy and I ran up without even thinking, kicked the door down to the burning appt, found a few fire extinguishers and put out the fire.

Pets are a tough one... As much as I would try to tell myself it isn't worth risking my life for a dog, I really love the little guy. And I do know a girl who's dog got loose one winter and ran onto a thinly iced over pond. Made it about 15 feet before it fell through. My friend dove into the freezing water and pulled her dog out.
