It was a time of terrible flooding. A rescue helicopter arrived. It winched up ten men and one woman, all hanging onto a looped rope dangling below the helicopter. The weight was too much; the helicopter struggled to gain height to take the people over the swirling waters. A plea was made that one person had to sacrifice for the good of the others, and fall off the rope. Immediately the woman gave a short speech, "I will let go of the rope because I am a woman and I am accustomed to give everything for my husband, kids, and men in particular with little chance of anything in return."
At this declaration, the men all started to clap their hands.
