..I know it's been done before but why not...



..you are in a room with 100 boxes in it... you are told that in 99 of the boxes is 10 million GBP or US dollars if preferred currency 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 99 with money in, you can keep it but if you choose the box with the bomb you're dead...would you risk it?

Is the 10 million split between the 99 boxes or is it in each?

No

Happiness and money are not linked

I'd open one without doubt ! I would fix up my house , pay off all the bills and have a long laid back holiday as i've not had a proper holiday for 33yrs:bawling:

Speak for yourself, I'd be a lot happier with 10 million in the bank

Open one box and then get out of there.

I'd take those odds and open a box.

I'd definitely risk it

I'd risk it... the death would be so quick, you wouldn't even know.

although saying this, with my luck would I still chance it? hmm....

I would 100% do it. like Caitlin said you wouldn't even know you died so i wouldn't be that bothered

I'd open one and it'd be just my luck that it'd be the bomb :laugh:

Definitely risk it. You wouldn't even know you're dead if you died because you'd be ... dead.

JoshBB

I would 100% risk it. I'm normally quite unlucky but even if the bomb went off, I would already be dead before I knew so I couldn't exactly regret it.

definitely take the chance.

Knowing your luck it would be like Death Becomes Her.

Dunno, perhaps someone could choose a number from 1-100 and everyone guesses? :p

I would do it without even hesitating.

I'd absolutely risk it, those are fantastic odds!

I would get Z or Ninastar to go in first, you just know for sure either one of them would pick that pesky bomb,
I would have a little weep and wail :bawling: at their passing then run in and grab a box or two, sorted:laugh:

True but I'd be leaving my children motherless

I couldn't bring myself to open a box. The things I love in life don't cost much, so I don't have that desire for money and I'm happy with what I earn. So there would be no point in me risking my life.

Josy

Too much hassle, wouldn't risk it.

16-09-2014, 10:07 PM
With those odds it would be silly for me not to tbh.

Marsh.
16-09-2014, 10:09 PM
I'd probably die from the stress.

Josy
16-09-2014, 10:11 PM
What about this..

Open the door then go over to the box nearest the door, stretch over to flip it open it and then run like the wind out of the door.

Wait a minute or so and if you don't hear a bang go back and collect the readies.

I'll take the risk for you and we can split the cash.

I think we should simulate the scenario on here.

We could ask the OP to pick a number from 1-100 to know secretly, then everybody has to post a number. Everybody who doesn't get the number gets a lovely new award courtesy of Josy and the unlucky ones who pick the number get booted off the forum. :hehe:
