What's a humans life worth? So I read this story online today. A man watched a woman drown to death in a river. He could have saved this woman as he knows how to swim. But when asked why he didn't save the drowning woman, he said he had his 2 phones in his pocket and didn't see anybody to give them to. So he refused to jump into the river. Imagine the choosing a phone over human life. Even our Lion is surprised.
