English term or phrase: "катастрофа на воздушном шаре"
Пожалуй, каждому, кто хоть раз бывал на психологических тренингах, знакома игра под названием «Катастрофа на воздушном шаре». По легенде, в корзине шара путешествуют трое. Выжить должен лишь один человек — остальным, чтобы спасти его, придется покинуть воздушное судно.

Если кому-то встречался английский вариант названия тренинга, поделитесь, пожалуйста. (термин использован в рекламном тексте-описании биодобавок)

balloon debate
Explanation:
A balloon debate is a debate in which a number of speakers attempt to win the approval of an audience. The audience is invited to imagine that the speakers are flying in a hot-air balloon which is sinking and that someone must be thrown out if everyone is not to die.

A game "whom will you save (if their is fire in the house?)"


Explanation:
A standard technique. Establishes affective hierarchies.

A baloon debate has nothing to do with affective heierarchies: it's a sort of intellectual musical chairs game. I don't think this is a meaning intended here.
