Boom or no boom

You have the option to walk into a room with 100 boxes on the floor.

99 of them contain, €500,000 cash. 1 randomly placed box contains a bomb that will explode and kill you and your puppy if you select it.

How many boxes do you pick up?

I don't have a puppy.

Joe10000 · 15-06-2013 10:31pm

Good question !

I would pick up none and I don't even have a puppy.

I'd have a blackcurrant jam sandwich and think about it.

apollo8 · 15-06-2013 10:32pm

were you playing minesweeper while watching deal or no deal ?

coolhull · 15-06-2013 10:34pm

I probably wouldn't pick any of them up, just open them up on the floor

PizzamanIRL · 15-06-2013 10:34pm

Pick up one box, hope it's not the bomb. I would use the 500k to pay someone to go into the room and pick up boxes until he picks the wrong one. Then I'll go in and take the rest of the 500k boxes and be 49 million euro richer.

Joe10000 · 15-06-2013 10:34pm

I misread the question, I would open 1 and hopefully be around to tell the tale.

Mango jam is not bad........oh and I like my odds with the box.

I usually get a bang off a box.

Tonyandthewhale · 15-06-2013 10:39pm

When do I get my puppy?

Sky King · 15-06-2013 10:39pm

99

I wouldnt touch the one with the bomb in it, for obvious reasons.

soap1978 · 15-06-2013 10:39pm

I pick up 99 and leave the bomb there.

Hill runner · 15-06-2013 10:40pm

I would walk in the room with a bomb dectector and out with boxes.

zenno · 15-06-2013 10:40pm

3 boxes, that's enough money to do me.....BOOM... Dead, all for being greedy.

My real answer is 1 box is all i would pick up

Dude, there is half a mil in 99 boxes. Picking one means death or a lousy 500k. If there is a chance I'm going to die. I'm going all out. I want to get into at least 50 boxes.

It really is a jam alright.

mcpaddington · 15-06-2013 10:44pm

I bring a metal detector in with me and single out the box with the bomb, then I exit the room with a cool €49.5 million.

galwayrush · 15-06-2013 10:45pm

What type of explosive used? Knowing that I could hire a puppy trained to detect the bomb and open all the rest.

Very greedy, 1 box is grand as the chances that that one is the Bomb is highly unlikely....Well that is if you are me, my luck stinks, my first box would probably be the Bomb unfortunately.
