The game was created to award people with ridiculous prizes. So the game was also ridiculous. The rules were simple. One has to moonwalk off the edge of the hill, and while falling down, has to avoid the sniper and the automatic back-up guns. Then one should go through spinning helicopter blades and when they fall into the water below, fight the two types of monsters and then they'll reach the treasure below worth 1 trillion dollars. Simple right? Well, it was completed by three people before. Somehow they did it. That gave hope to people and many tired and failed. It's one of the most controversial games, yet people allowed it because, when the three people won the prize, they donated large chunk of the money and solved many problems.

Few asked why can't the organizers just give that money to solve problems? It is possible right? How are the winner able to donate not even full of it yet are solving problems? But some others said the advertising and broadcasting of this game rakes in the money to give. So, they can't do this multiple times if they don't broadcast it and generate revenue to keep conducting multiple seasons, thus generating more money to donate. Some agreed with it while others didn't. But everyone kept watching to see what happens.

To prevent any deaths, they made sure to stop the show as soon as someone is trapped or hit by these obstacles and then rescue them immediately. So, even failing won't kill them, but injure them heavily. Of course, this only came into place after two deaths, and multiple near death experiences.

So, this guy came with a hat on because he wanted to do the moonwalk with proper attire. He was nervous but couldn't miss this opportunity. He trained himself to be more agile and strong. He created strategies and learned how to have presence of mind.

Now he was standing on the cliff, facing the opposite side of the edge.

He moonwalked off the edge, and while falling, threw his bullet proof jacket towards the sniper and automatic guns. Then he quickly threw his hat into the helicopter's rotor mast. The hat had magnets and some other mechanism, which was effective to jam the blades just for the moment and he fell through it swiftly.

It was time to face the monsters. As soon as he hit the water, the monsters started coming towards him from both sides. He removed his shoes and threw each one at the both the monsters. The shoes released some type of chemical that attacked the eyes of the monsters and they were petrified.

Now the path was clear. He went straight for the treasure chest at the bottom of that water body. He found a key inside it. He took that and resurfaced. Upon going on the land, the officials said he was disqualified for using inappropriate means to win. It's basically cheating.

But he challenged the disqualification. They never set any rules that all of the things he did were not allowed. He was the first one to do it. No one thought this would be allowed. He thought why not try it? No one said it's not allowed either.

He suggested that they could donate half the prize money to charities and keep rest of it. After all he finished the task.

They said they'll think about it.

And that's when the new rules were formed for the game called Risk.

People were to follow rules. No bending of rules. Otherwise... problems will be solved?

 

The End.
