Lord of the Rings: why didn't anyone stop Isildur taking the Ring or steal it from him?
Do you think anyone else would have done the same as Isildur if they were in his position?
It is difficult to say. The Ring's corrupting influence can affect even the most noble and strong-willed individuals, as shown later in the story when Frodo and Sam are also tempted by its power. However, some characters such as Aragorn prove to be resilient and are able to resist the Ring's control. Ultimately, it depends on the individual and their strength of will.
