I can't believe people would take a 5-1 shot on there life for such a "little" amount of money, 6million is little imo for that high a risk of dying, by the time you shared it with family etc you'd do well to have a good standard of living for the rest of your life without needing to work. At first I thought I wouldn't do any but for 50million I'll take the risk on the roulette and if I lost it'd be a pretty com runbad story, for others too tell. I'd be tempted to do the roulette for less but there's no way I'd do X or Y for any amount.
meh, living is overated. I find it hard to believe that some people think their life is actually worth such vast amounts of money. You would have to grind out life say at 40k a year for 50 years to get 2 million or take a 6-1 shot there and then. Yes please! and a 36-1 shot, pfffffffft, free money! Surely we have all done stuff as kids/young adults that has nearly got us dead at no financial gain to ourselves. I jumped out of a second floor window on to a tree, got catapulted through a water gate in a weir, let alone all the 5050 shots i took where the chick could be riddled with aids. Probs other stuff that doesn't spring to mind. Everytime we have a heavy night and drive in the morning etc.
That said i am a massive degen anyways. 36-1 and 6-1 are just far too big and lol at sharing any with my family. They can risk their own lives.

If someone had a gun to your head and 6 million on the table I don't believe you'd roll, if you did you aren't a gambler, just fukn mental.
I don't value my life anywhere near the figure, I just don't value money very much.

Gotta be a tv show in the making.
Can start off with small budget, get loads of winos in for 10k a man- 37 of them round a roulette wheel. Make it pay-per-view, easily cover the 360k payouts. 37 walk in, 36 walk out

Your balling out of control Mr Norton if you cant live happily on a bag a day!
Either your all talking BS if it actually came to it, or your just on a different planet, I would snap decline gambling my life at 100,000-1 for £100m.
If the situation arose I couldn't say 100% for ceartain that I'd do it, but for 50million and for the odds of me losing I think I would.
I don't believe anyone with any kind of normal living circumstances would flip a coin.

Nearly all of them, they´d just be a fair bit drunker (on classier booze) than they had been the previous week.

If they made 100 people put their right leg in a guillotine, 1 loses it- 100k to rest, would you do it?
Ur 1.01 to win 100k- same as having 10m bet at 1-100.

A bag a day ?
I'd give at least 1/2 to family, that leaves 3million, without inc cars, houses, earlier excessive partying, spending 1k a day I'd be busto in 8 years.
3mil still sees you with a sensible return of around 180k a year though without touching the capital?
To be fair sounds like your a lot more generous than me also, I still had £5,999,500 after I had looked after my friends and familiy.

Would obviously feel bad for the guy that lost his leg but otherwise sounds fine to me, I´m in :-).

It's a very different gamble when you know 100% that one of them's going to die.
Much fairer and more fun if they take it in turns to spin the wheel if you ask me.
As for the bet I don't think there's a price for a 36 to 1 shot.
100,000 to 1 I'd do for a few hundred k. Hopkin's insane if he wouldn't do it for £100m. That's just stupid.
Also Monda thinking you couldn't have a good standard of living for £3m is the best joke I've heard in ages.
