Safe

Three guys wearing a red shirt
My two older brothers and my dad
Figures that the safest men to be stuck with aren't human men.
Aragorn?
He's got Elven heritage. He's the 64th descendant of Elros, brother of Elrond. I think he's also decendend from a Maiar as Elros and Elrond's great great grandmother was Melian.
Not if yer a fucken orc!
I tried to come up with a counter argument and realized pretty quickly that I didn’t want to.
I mean, they're objectively correct.
I'd choose: Boromir, Ned Stark, and Sean Bean.
No way anything bad can happen to me with those magnets around.
I dunno. Might take Sharpe instead of Ned Stark, good to have someone that knows how to use a rifle
The whole elevator would just crash through the foundation. You'd be collateral when Death gets a 3 for 1 final destination style.
The fact that they had to go to fictional characters is significant.
We're in the LOTR community, the sample may be a little biased
Yes, but the person who responded to the question wasn't in a LOTR community.
All the other people who answered weren't posted here
I know, I'm just referring to this particular person's response.
Good point!
Okay, real world examples from me (notably, a big dude, so y'know, probably not as in tune to things as I could be):
Bernie Sanders My brother My Uncle
... I... Really thought I'd have better options until I really started thinking about it
Yeah. Same issue here. So how about:
Bob Ross. Carl Sagan. Steve Irwin.
I'd swap Steve for Bernie.
Not because I think Steve would hurt anyone directly. But at any moment he may be like "would you like to see this deadly spider I've got in m'pocket?" And then pull out a spider that even spider scientists didn't know existed or some shit. He would never let the spider hurt you, but you'd have a heart attack anyway.
Somewhat related: that's a dream blunt rotation right there
I feel like Gimli would hog it, Aragorn would obviously be awesome, and Legolas would be chill but you could tell he's thinking your weed sucks, he's got a much better connection.
Gimli, it's a blunt, not a microphone
Everywhere they went people were getting kidnapped, orcs were invading, trees were coming to life, and the dead were rising. Id want to be far away from that elevator.
Yeah that’s as safe as being a marine hanging with the master chief.
You take that back, I protect my marines while playing!
You know.... As much as possible while charging headfirst into the most powerful empire the galaxy has seen in 100,000 years hell bent on destroying humanity and all we represent...
Let’s not talk about Truth and Reconciliation lol
Look bro, I just handed you an entire SPNKR rocket launcher and a Scorpion jump seat, whatever you do with those afterward is no longer my concern. I'm busy driving.
You know for a fact that they'll literally coming charging across the countryside to rescue you though
Not much countryside for the charging in most elevators, though 🤔

So ackshually...
Aragorn was descended from Elros who was a half-elf, but that was so long ago he may or may not be a full man depending on how racist one is about miscegenation.
Legolas was an elf and Gimli was a dwarf, so explicitly not Men.
How about Eomer and Faramir instead?
Boromir would've made them feel safer.
Faramir didn't try to take the Ring from Frodo, unlike Boromir.
Elros and Elrond had a choice as to become Eldar or Edain. Elrond chose Eldar, while Elros chose Edain. Once they chose their mixed nature was resolved.
Not exactly, since the Númenóreans still had longer lives than Men due to their elven heritage. So while one could absolutely make the argument they were Men, there's also a case to be made saying they weren't pureblooded Men.
Men as in males, yes.
Men as in humans, mostly no
Let's be real. We're all NPCs so if any of the men are from something with action, we'll probably end up dead. My pick would be Bob Ross, Mr. Rogers, and Steve Irwin. Super calming and chill
Christopher Reeves, Stephen Hawking, Teddy Pendergrass
Mr Rogers, Bob Ross, Steve Irwin
i mean, i guess i'd feel safe, but probably not super comfortable, given that they are all three very dead.
If they're dead and in the elevator, are they still in wheelchairs?
Idk about Stephen Hawking
Enhanced
Oh God. That's horrifying.
The meme from OP is not much better, though.
The jpegs are very scary.
Is this AI?
Sadly. There's no other copies of this meme that's not infested by the jpegs. I didn't have time to find the source to recreate it.
Now, however... hold my beer.
