Shocking no one, real-life Squid Game seems to have been a bad idea

, inspired by the mega-popular Korean series in which poor people are exploited by being offered incredible amounts of money if they can survive a series of cruel games. In Netflix's reality show version, contestants were offered $4.56 million to compete in games based on those from the show, with the difference being that nobody would die.

The anonymous sources claimed at least 10 contestants collapsed during this game, and one said that medics took a long time reaching fallen players because the producers were concerned they would interfere with camera shots. One player claims he suffered a herniated disc and tore a tendon in his knee.

Three of the contestants alleged that a number of players who made it across the finish line with time left on the clock had their blood squibs go off after the fact—several minutes after—and were told they failed and were being sent home. One contestant also said they saw a player who should have been eliminated being given a second chance.

So what they are saying is that influencers were playing the role of oh il-nam.

Yeah, obviously from reading that the production was scummy, but did none of them watch the source material?

At this point I'm no longer wondering if people understood what the show is about. I know they didn't

See now we need a Squid Games for Instagram and TikTok... influencers...and make it like the show. I guarantee the IQ level of society will skyrocket.

...Am I the only one who thinks that the whole thing is horrifying not in a 'don't create the torment nexus' way but on a 'people are actually being put in (non-lethal) danger unlike the ACTORS of the show and everyone outside thinks they had it coming for signing in'?

Look at them and laugh, i'd say
