CARSON, Calif. (AP) — A 17-year-old boy shot and killed himself early Monday during what authorities are describing as a game of Russian roulette in his apartment with other teens.
Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department deputies responding to a call about a gunshot in an unincorporated area between Los Angeles and Carson found the boy with a wound to the head. He was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The boy initiated the game after producing a .38-caliber revolver, despite the pleading of two others in the bedroom not to, according to sheriff's investigators. Russian roulette involves loading a single chamber of a revolver, spinning the cylinder and squeezing the trigger after putting the gun to one's head.
I'm sorry if anyone takes this the wrong way or if it offends someone but I honestly cannot feel too sorry for people like this who risk their lives just for the sake of the "thrill". Not a very well thought out move, glad the other kids didn't join in.

Nevertheless, rip such an unfortunate way to die
That must be a hell of a thrill... Knowing that any second the bullet could pierce your skull leaving your brain looking like spaghetti.
