Thumbs on our hands, your teeth, eyesee, everything related to your body that if you lose it changes your life. On material side we are slave of electricity.

Well, technically, you don’t buy thumbs or teeth, your parents pay for to to be born, and the price doesn’t change if you have all your limbs or some missing. Unless you’re talking about prosthetics

Ok about thumbs, but my dentists sure have buyed a tesla car with my checks to fix my teeths. Not eating properly because that is kinda terrible as my opinion and essential for begin healthy.

I would think magnets.

They used in dynamos to generate electricity, in motors to convert electricity into mechanical energy, they are used to hold items together, plus I’m sure many more technical use cases that I am not aware of.

A fat man standing on a bridge over a railway track.

Edit: I guess my answer missed the mark. It was meant to be a reference to “The Fat Man” utilitarian corollary to the trolley problem:

The Fat Man

As before, a trolley is hurtling down a track towards five people. You are on a bridge under which it will pass, and you can stop it by putting something very heavy in front of it. As it happens, there is a very fat man next to you – your only way to stop the trolley is to push him over the bridge and onto the track, killing him to save five. Should you proceed?

If you choose not to push the fat man, then under utilitarian thinking his life is more valueable than the 5 lives that otherwise would have been saved.

Tough crowd.
