It is difficult to explain. Very. Plus, it would derail the thread.

OT: Yes. Because it is the game of Real Men.

EDIT: Simple answer, in this order.

It is ok to be confused. God. This body is the last one.
Right, sorry. Didn't mean to derail the thread/sound stupid, even if I wound up doing both. Sorry about that.
No need to be. You did nothing wrong. Nor did you derail/sound stupid.

OT: None of this wimpy 1 bullet shit... 3 bullets.

Probably not, I really don't want to die and I don't care about money at all.

Also I've noticed comments like "Yea cus ima man!" I think most people here are just talking big but when they were right there, a few "clicks" later and they had the gun at their head, they would be crying, begging for mercy and wanting to go home.

I think I would. I say that now, but at the time, who knows. If I die, it'll be fine. I won't know about it. 500mil is a lot of money, and imagine about the 5/6 chance that you live. The consequence is tough but for me death isn't scary. The means of dying can be scary, but a bullet to the brain? Fuck yes.

Never, I wouldn't be able to look friends and family in the eye afterwards if I did survive. I mean, they would probably be very sad if I died, and it shows a huge lack of respect towards the people I love to be willing to put them through it all just for a chance to get money.

I think a lot of people underestimate the instinct of self preservation and how hard to do it would really be. I think even putting an empty gun to your head and pulling the trigger would be hard. It'd just feel so wrong.

Yet suicides are far from unheard of.

If there were no loopholes, and I was feeling down.... probably.
Any other time, and no.
No question of saying 'Hey, if I die, I'll be going to Heaven anyway.', because Suicide is a sin.
That would be suicide if the bullet was in the chamber and killed you.

But then, $500,000,000.....

Alas, suicides are far from unheard of.
Sadly, yes, I know.. But this is a different situation.

I would actually only do it if he had the money with him. But then, I would probably just shoot him and take the money.

Look, I know this is supposed to be Russian and all, but you're getting dangerously close to the Heavy's version of this game.

I wouldn't do it.

I read a Darwin Award once about a guy who tried playing Russian Roulette with a semiautomatic pistol. Guess how that ended?
his mistake was going first

Would it though? After all, you'd be doing it in the hope of winning the money, with no intention of shooting yourself. If the gun went off, it'd simply be terrible luck. Not that it matters to me of course. I don't think the idea of heaven or hell would bother you any more than the pain of getting shot, once you've put a bullet in your head.

It's so easy to say 'Yes I would, its worth the risk' right now but if I was right there and then I probably wouldn't, I'd be to busy thinking about what I've got to lose. Plus, knowing my luck I'd die even if there wasn't a bullet in the gun.
