Russian Roulette Game
The origins of the
Russian Roulette game are unclear. One theory has it that in the
19th Century Russian prisoners were forced to hold pistols against
their heads and take it in turns to pull the trigger until one of
them was dead whilst their prison guards bet on the outcome.
To play this Russian Roulette take it
in turns to pull the trigger of your gun until one of you is dead.
In 2003, psychological illusionist Derren Brown played Russian
Roulette on British television Channel 4. The stunt was broadcast
live with a slight delay allowing the program to cut to a black
screen if anything had gone wrong and although it was a partial
hoax with a blank bullet, the stunt may well have killed him. Well
that's entertainment for you! |
