The example I know is where you take a random healthy man. Then you find five people who are waiting for different organ donations. Is it right to kill that man and harvest his organs, to save the five.

I find it a much more insightful example.

Yeah, that is definitely a lot less of a contrived example, although I'm guessing, it's a less popular example, because you would definitely not make that decision on your own...
