@kingedthejust Good question! I've always preferred to think I'd be sensible like Polly is as soon as she and Digory see the bell and read the inscription — "No fear! ... We don't want any danger." But if I were actually in that situation myself, who knows... I would probably be too cautious (and too wary already of what we'd seen of the ruins of Charn so far) to deliberately do something that I'd been told would bring on danger. But I can't say for sure that I wouldn't be tempted at all.

I’m afraid I would want to know what would happen if I struck the bell. Unsolved mysteries intrigue me too much. I can’t blame Digory for doing it. The temptation would be too much.

I'm a naturally curious person, but I feel like if the bell had a literal warning label on it like that, I'd at least hesitate...

For about 10 seconds.

Great question!

 Seeing as i had a magic ring in my pocket that could take me away at a second’s notice, i would’ve struck the bell and then probably vanished as soon as the room started crumbling

The bell was already rung be me 2 weeks ago- I mean, I think I would definitely ring it, mostly to see what would happen. My logic would be "what could possibly go wrong?" And of course face palm later.
