A quantum wave-trolley approaches a plate with a double slit. On the other end of each
slit is a crystal that will split the wave-trolley into an entangled pair of wave trolleys with
half the energy of the original. You stand next to a lever that operates seven wave-trolley
detectors. These detectors are placed on the tracks thet the entangled pairs will
through. Right after the detectors, people are tied down to the track, placed inside a box
transparent only to the trolley frequency of the spectrum (this means you can't know
if they are dead or alive until the box opens). If you activate the detectors, you will force
the trolley's wave function to collapse into a single trolley-particle revealing which slit
it went through. This would instantly kill one of the two persons in front of the detectors
on one side, but also have a 50% chance of killing a single person on the other end, ora
25% chance of either killing 4, or none, depending the final direction that the particle-
trolley goes through.
