Question:

Syd recently was injured while attending a concert. During the performance, the band's guitarist, Arnold Layne, unexpectedly leaped from the stage while carrying his instrument. Syd, who was sitting in the second row, suffered a serious head injury when the guitar struck him. The concert was immediately stopped and paramedics took Syd to the nearest hospital. The wound was treated, but a week later, Syd began experiencing blinding headaches that prevented him from working. After further investigation, a team of specialists agreed that Syd required surgery. The operation was simple enough and it carried a 95 percent chance of a complete cure. Like all operations, it also carried a slight risk of additional injury. Although his family and friends unanimously urged him to undergo surgery, Syd refused. He insists that since the original accident was not his fault, he should not be required to expose himself to danger in order to find a cure. Discuss the rights and obligations of Arnold Layne and Syd. (You should not discuss liability of any other parties.)
