Default Stars $55k...post break...all in preflop for 75bb w/o a pair?

i'm not smart, but found this hand pretty interesting...

Seat 2: button (7585 in chips)
Seat 3: sb (13212 in chips)
Seat 4: hero (15507 in chips)
Seat 5: utg (6525 in chips)

Seat 8: mp1 (16735 in chips)
Seat 9: mp2 (5975 in chips)

*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to hero [Kd Ac]
utg: calls 200
utg+1: calls 200
utg+2: folds
mp1: raises 800 to 1000
mp2: folds
co: folds
button: folds
sb: calls 900
hero: raises 2600 to 3600
utg+1: folds
utg+2: folds
mp1: raises 13135 to 16735 and is all-in
sb: folds
hero: ?

2 limpers followed by a 5x raise and a call of that raise. if i flat call, after I act the limpers will have the option to call getting 4:1 or better. so, i repopped it for the pot and was reraised all in by the original raiser.

now what? can you lay that down getting 2:1? i guess you have to be 100% convinced that he has AA or KK (this was his 3rd hand at the table..he open limped the other two). folding still leaves me with almost 60bbs and isn't it a tad ridiculous to potentially go broke on a hand that I started with 75bbs by going all in preflop without a pair?

results are irrelevant, just interested to hear some opinions....thanks.

I'd put him on JJ+, AK. I would call here since there are a lot of dead chips in the pot. Even against JJ+ you have odds to call here. Also, getting a big stack early is fun.
