Some guy is going to play russian roulette on almost live British TV.
They are going to have the broadcast delayed a few seconds in case he shoots himself in the head... If that's the case, they'll turn the screen black and have a message come up saying what happened.

Check out this link for the info

    I'm willing to bet it won't get on the air at all.

    It's bullshit. No-one's going to get killed.

    The guy'll "shoot" himself, fake his own death, get a new identity, go abroad and live the rest of his life in comfortable anonymity with the revenues gained from the viewing ratings.

    Im sorry gentlmen the first time the TV industry does put on death for just pure entertainment..

    I am starting my junta, and I think it will be time to bathe the earth in clensing fire, for obviously there are impurities in the human soul that have gained too much root for simple pruning, no it will only be expunged by burning it out :(

    Have we come to this now? I mean we are rapidly approaching the ethic barrier that all of earths previous great civilizations have come to, and then fallen, but already? Arrgh!

    one step at a time...

    and people called me crazy when I said humans gravitate to the lowest common denominator...:rolleyes:

    Blame it on mass media and the desire to make more money than is necessary.

    nah, Im with you on that one, its part of the reason that I have hobbesian moments, his opinion that there was little to no inherent good in the human heart is at least partialy right
  • the_exilethe_exile Kupo!
    I don't consider it a catastrophe of such... Biblical... proportions. Hell, it's kind of amusing how you guys are comparing it to Noah... Perhaps you just can't hear the music. :)
  • A2597A2597 Fanboy
    hmm...

    heres another one...

    [url]http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3160180.stm[/url]

    wants a live, on stage suicide...*sigh*

    sick sick sick


    no, not biblical proportions, but seriously, the very fact that something like this is being planned is sickening...

    Well, that Russian Roulette thing finished about half an hour ago, the guy didn't shoot himself. :rolleyes:

    It was abviously rigged, he didn't even spin the cylinder between shots.
