You can only save one.

My dog can swim so I would save the child

I don't think I can even save either because I CANT SWIM!

The human being without hesitation

Myself.

Where do you even live. That kind of law doesn't exist

I'd save my dog.

Stranger's child.
But I will get a proper burial for my dog

Your dog got four broken legs in this scenario though.

I'm a cat person. I'd save my cat. The hypothetical child should know how to swim, like that one kid in "Captain America: The First Avenger" that was thrown into the harbour by a Hydra agent, but told Steve Rogers to go after the Hydra agent because he could swim. If the hypothetical child doesn't know how to swim, that's not my fault. I'd toss him a safety tube and wish him luck as I save my cat.

Stranger's child

This.

If I can both but I'd probably try to save the child first

My dog.

My dog is one of the most precious things in my life. The child would be in this kind of danger thanks to the parents being irresponsible. My dog should't be paying the ultimate prize for that. Just like that gorilla didn't deserve to die.

The child. But most probably all three of us will drown since I cannot swim also.

Omg I hate when people make up these depressing situations

I'd save both
