Oh, only about 99.5% of commercial rated pilots.
The other .5% would have tried to return to LaGuardia and died.
I went through a similar scenario at O'hare in the 70's, a pilot crashed his 747 to miss us in the middle of his landing runway, saving 130+ onboard our 727.
Of course, he would have died in the collision too, so his actions were not altogether altruistic.
