I was just reading about some kind of game, and I happened to come across it. I have watched a movie where such a game is being played, but I never believed such a game could be legal.
A game that's played at the expense of one's life, if you are unlucky that very day, will all end in the loser losing his life or being shot in any part of the body that the pistol is placed on, and the winner will walk home with the winning award.
Does this kind of game still exist? That's if it was ever played the way I read about it online.
And how can people take risk of playing such game ?
Did you really ignore the wider context of the game as illustrated in all of the films you watch? It is usually played in a similar vein to picking the short straw, in scenarios where you need a random way to get rid of someone which is completed by spinning the barrel. It's either done to show how crazy a person is, that they are willing to throw away their own lives based on random luck by doing it to themselves, or in order to make a hard decision easier by leaving it up to random fate. Nobody is playing this game seriously, because the outcome for the players means that they will all lose their lives eventually and there are no sane people who would partake in it often due to the strong urge towards self preservation.
