What would you do for $1,000,000?

[Mark Latimour]

I heard this on a podcast the other day and thought it might make an interesting thread.

Basically the premise is that NBC is going to have a show called "What would you do for $1,000,000?" and if you get selected to be on the show and you do your thing, you get $1,000,000. The catch is that anyone can submit what they will do for $1,000,000 and only the most sensational / TV worthy will make it on to the show. Effectively, you have to submit your what you would do as a bid. Obviously if you bid to high (ie chop of your todger) then it might not be worth the million. On the other hand, if you bid too low (post a new thread on TB) you won't get on the show.

THe only rules are:

1. You would have to go through with whatever you bid;

2. You don't get the money if you die or kill someone else.

So, what would you do for $1,000,000?

Ummm, a certain amout of humiliation, since I usually get that for free.

Its tax free / net of tax.

A couple of suggestions at lunchtime:

- Have sex with your father (I have strange colleagues)

- Have all your body hair (inc head, eyebrows etc) shaved off and remain that way for 6 months

- Chop off your own little finger

- Chop off an ear

- Not speak for a year.

the key here is finding something that tv execs will find worthy of putting on primetime....i think trying to find a way to involve celebrities is a good route...

maybe have lady gaga rub her crotch in one's face. i dunno, i'll think about it


edits:
-spar chuck norris, or maybe jet li

There's one. I'd let Chuck Norris roundhouse kick me in the face.

You do understand the concept of hypothetical, don't you?

[SoonerMatt]

I'd liquidate my assets, make smart investment moves, and stop buying gear.

Unfortunately, nothing exciting enough to put on TV. I wouldn't lose a finger or bang my dad, that's for sure.

My friends and I played a similar hypothetical game after Anna Nicole Smith married that old guy who was (at the time, anyway) worth $585 million. We just called the discussion "585". The worst was the singer for our band, who claimed he would fellate his grandfather in a public place on national television and tattoo "**** sucker" on his forehead afterwards.

Considering the amount of people who would certainly pay 10$ to see that, you're onto something.
