Default Wednesday dilemma/100 boxes...

..this has been done before but...



..you are in a room with 100 boxes in it... you are told that in ninety nine of the boxes is ten million GBP and this has been verified to be true but in one of the boxes is a bomb which will go off and instantly kill you the moment the box is open, which is also true.... you are also told you can choose one box and open it, if you pick one of the ninety nine with money in, you can keep it but if you choose the box with the bomb you're dead obviously...would you risk it?...

I don't think I would, no.

I'd send in my brother to open it for me and we can share the winnings / funeral bill.

It wouldn't be a timed bomb though There's nothing that says you can't lift the boxes. What would be heavier, a bomb or 10 million quid???

Without a doubt. The risk is minimal, but the rewards otherwise unachievable.
Millions have died in poverty through diseases caused by breaking their backs working for nothing more than trying to feed their families and keep their heads above water. Millions are sitting in prisons all over the world because they tried to secure such a fortune by illegal means.

It's a No Brainer to me.

100/1. I'm not really a betting person but I like those odds, so I would open a box.
