Plank of Carneades
In the thought experiment, there are two shipwrecked sailors, A and B. They both see a plank that can only support one of them and both of them swim towards it. A gets to the plank first. B is going to drown so B pushes A away from the plank and, thus, ultimately, leads to A drowning. B gets on the plank and is later saved by a rescue team. B cannot be tried for murder because if B had to kill A in order to live, then it would be in self-defense.
