Russian Roulette

[Gutter92]

Okay, so, I am going with the assumption that everyone here knows what Russian Roulette is.

One of my buddies is offering me $200 if I have the cajones to play one round of Russian Roulette (meaning I pull the trigger only once), with only one bullet in the gun (it's 1/8 odds right? something like that, not sure exactly). The money would be pretty big seeing as I haven't had a job in over a month lol.

Reason this bet came around is we had a long discussion about Russian Roulette and I told him if I was offered a significant amount of money, I would do it (not repeatedly, one round, and only 1 bullet), and he kept saying "yea you say that now, you're full of shit, etc." and then at the end he asked me if I'd do it for $200. I told him I'd get back to him on it.

There's no way to rig the "game" is there?

I highly doubt this is a serious post, but here is my input.

Betting your life for only 200 dollars is retarded.

I'm highly guessing that he'll tell me that theres a bullet in the gun, and he won't actually put a bullet in there, just to see if I would do it. Especially since he could probably get in trouble if I do it.

Still not worth 200 dollars.

[Gutter92]

Still not worth 200 dollars.

When you look at it in the way I am, (2 layers: one where he doesn't even put a bullet in the gun because he is scared of getting in trouble, and then the 2nd layer being a 1/8 chance (I think that's how many bullets can fit in the revolver?), its almost a 99% chance literally nothing happens (either because there is no bullet, or 1 of the 8 that is blank fires)

[spurs_2108]

but why the fuck would you risk it?

[Gutter92]

but why the fuck would you risk it?

Like I said, it's probably a 1% chance.

Basically, I'm betting that he doesn't have the balls to put a bullet in the gun, while he's betting I don't have the balls to pull the trigger under the illusion there is a bullet in the gun.

[spurs_2108]

And what if there are 8 bullets in there. Your just assuming that he doesn't have the balls. So I think he may put more bullets to mess you up.

And its freaking 200 dollars.

[DeadlyDynasty]

go for it, bro...Think of how that $200 is gonna feel in your hand

Then he'd be throwing away his future, as he is in medical school right now lol. That is a part I am also counting on, that he knows what is at stake for him, and it's worth a lot more than $200.

[baseline bum]

Dude, you're probably never going to have another chance to make that kind of money.

[TDMVPDPOY]

stupid offer

why dont u go take it in the ass for some real money or take one in the mouth from some guy...

[Sisk]

Did you get accepted into wherever you applied? Great fucking English major tbh :cry:cry:cry

[ginobili's bald spot]

:lmao :lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao


You are willing to take a 1 in 8 chance of dying for 200 bucks? You are definitely one of the stupidest people I have ever encountered in my life. And I mean that with 100% sincerity.





:lmao seriously I can't stop laughing. Even if you are trolling this shit is hilarious.

[ChumpDumper]

Life is cheap after all.

[METALMiKE]

I'll give you $1000 to put 7 in there and pull the trigger.

[lebomb]

I will give you $1500 if you put 1 bullet in there and pull the trigger 8 times.

No seriously, I will. :toast

[silverblk mystix]

I will take 200 bux from you and I get to punch you three or four times...really hard.

[Heath Ledger]

Dude agree to play the game but then go get this

Russian Roulette Revolver Drinking Game (http://www.hanzoswords.com/Russian-Roulette-Drinking-Game_c_236.html)

Nobody wants to see you die.

[Slydragon]

If you are stupid enough to think about doing this at all even more so for only 200 bucks, not to sound mean but I hope you lose.

[Dr. Gonzo]

You have 7 chances of winning. You would be stupid not to go for it. Have your friend videotape it and then post it so we can all witness your glory.

[Soul_Patch]

200 dollars? Are you kidding me?

[Drachen]

If you have to ask, then you should totally do it.

[CosmicCowboy]

ahhhh...a textbook case of Darwinian selection.

[silverblk mystix]

....after giving it some thought...and knowing that this is a troll job...


I still have to say-to stop fuckin around with this idea, this is how accidents happen.

Use your head and quit this little game.

[lebomb]

I say try it with a machine gun. :hat

[Mixability]

Wow, for $200? That's how much your life is worth to you?

[Gutter92]

Wow, I just now realized why I am getting some responses like this.

I didn't say where the gun would be pointed. It would be pointed at my left arm, not my head lmao. I'm not retarded to risk that what the hell

[Mixability]

Then that's not Russian Roulette, that's making a video for Break.com.

[Sportcamper]

I am trying to decide which thread is more disturbing….The Russian roulette thread or the Baby Seals getting clubbed thread…

Gutter…Just in case you are serious…I am sure that you have friends & family who will pay you a lot more than 200 dollars to PASS on this stupid dare…

[baseline bum]

You might as well call that shit French Roulette then.

[Pero]

You sure about that? :p:

[fraga]

Yeah in the arm...sure why not...make sure to aim for fat...and not the carotid artery...

[Gutter92]

How much would getting shot hurt? Assuming it doesn't hit bone or w/e, would it be all that painful?

[Useruser666]

First off, most revolvers have 6 shots. So that is a 1 in 6 chance that you will die. Just by seeing that you do not know how many bullets a typical revolver has should make you never follow through with this. Make sure you never play the game with a semi auto pistol, as in, one that fires with every pull of the trigger. I know it sounds dumb, but I have read stories that people have done exactly that.

If you need the money, but want to win a Darwin award without it costing you your life, let your friend kick you in the nuts for the $200.

Last time I shot myself, it didnt hurt at all. You are good, go for it. :makemyday

[pawe]

Take the money and point the gun to your dick. You wont die but you'd wish you'd just die if you get the bullet.

[DisAsTerBot]

OMG, for real? Fucking morons... at least they can't reproduce anymore.

[Gutter92]

What is the difference? Won't a revolver fire once with one pull of the trigger?

[Sportcamper]

The Nagant M1895 revolver has a 7 shot cylinder, the Webley-Fosbery Revolver has an 8-shot cylinder in .38 caliber, and the LeMat Revolver has a 9 shot cylinder... Several models of .22 rim fire caliber revolvers have cylinders holding 9 or 10 rounds... Smith & Wesson makes .357 revolvers with 8 cylinders…

[lebomb]

LMAO...............dude, seriously? A semi auto pistol has a magazine with a spring in it. So you load a bullet, you pull the trigger and you WILL get a round to the dome. :lmao

[Sportcamper]

Also…Just in case someone is taking this thread seriously….You don’t need a real bullet in the chamber or cylinder to cause brain injury…The concussion from a blank round will make you just as dead as a live round….See Jon Erik Hexum…

On October 12, 1984, between filming scenes on the set of Cover Up, Hexum was critically wounded after he placed a .44 Magnum prop gun loaded with blanks to his temple and pulled the trigger... The accident happened during the filming of a scene where Hexum’s character (Mac Harper) was supposed to unload a handgun and replace the bullets with blanks—as the script required... The shooting was, however, delayed due to a technical difficulty and Hexum fell asleep on the set... Hexum awoke approximately fifteen minutes later and, realizing the scene was still not ready to be shot, began playing with the gun. Police later reported that Hexum had been playing Russian roulette, having loaded three empty cartridges and two blanks into the cylinder... He eventually placed the gun to his head and, after saying, "Let's see if I've got one for me!" pulled the trigger..

Darwin's theory of natural selection is at its finest here in the first post of this thread.

[CosmicCowboy]

BTW, the revolver cylinder rotates clockwise (looking at it from the back). The next bullet to fire when you pull the trigger is not the one behind the barrel but the first slot counterclockwise from the barrel. You can look at the gun from the front and side and see if the next click will fire. Plenty of time to chicken out. If you don't, make sure your buddy posts it on youtube and sends us the link.

[CosmicCowboy]

Oh, and after you shoot yourself? If you go to the hospital they are required by law to call the cops on all gunshot wounds. THAT should be an interesting conversation.

[mrsmaalox]

$200 to blow off a piece of your arm? You'd probably better blow off more parts to raise enough cash to get your arm fixed.

[SpursWoman]

Seriously ... provided you survive, are you planning on chipping in that $200 to your parents to pay your deductible? Assuming that you have health insurance, of course.


Damn. :lol

[CuckingFunt]

Don't bother with the arm. Go for the head.

You'll look like even more of a badass, and you'll take care of that college application essay problem. Two birds with one bullet.

The essay was already sent in.

All the more reason to go for it.

If you are going to do it, aim it at your balls; that way we don't have to worry about you reproducing.

[The Franchise]

go for it, bro...Think of how that $200 is gonna feel in your hand

:lol

[Sportcamper]

Make sure to watch Deer Hunter on DVD…

[Shelly]

Go for it! If we don't hear back from you, we'll rest easy knowing there's one less stupid person in the world for considering something like this!

Good luck! :)

[BlackSwordsMan]

200$ > 2000$ in medical bills

[man on wire]

Give it your best shot and see what happens.

[fatsack]

make sure you use a semi-automatic.

[byrontx]

If you are seriously considering it then of course you should.

[AussieFanKurt]

I've got a smith and wesson to use. who wants it?

[CosmicCowboy]

Just don't agree and then back out...
