Would you run into a burning building to save someone you didn't know?

Update:

For those who say no: What if it were a child?

    Nope; I'm a single mother. Where I live a 22 year old man just lost his life in a burning home after rescuing a mother and two of her children. He went back in for the other two and all three of them perished in the fire. He'd known the woman and her children for one month.

    I would have no choice. I am the savior of the human race. The prophesy "must" be fulfilled.
