a Very Important Endgame Decision

What would you do?
I was playing in a 6- Max 400 man low stakes MTT and there were 20 people left. I was 5th in chips and with about average chip count with a stack of 60 BB or an M= 30 due to antes. I had a pretty good read on the other players at the table but soon the man to my right busted and a new man came. He had a stack of 80 BB. I had no real information on him except that he had 3bet that entire stack from the BB after an ep raise of mine only 3 hands after he sat down at my table. Only a couple hands later I picked up JJ on the SB. Everyone folded to him. He raises his button 10X!!!
I know what happened and it turned out very ugly. Can anyone think of a solid plan for a tricky little spot like this?

sounds sick, pitching jacks there is fine.
10x you cant call, you can shove and hope he doesnt have a made hand. Sure you could see some lower PPs but more often than not you are crushed or flipping for entire stack.

I prolly fold to the 10x raise, but it all depends, and depending on stack sizes I might even flat.
