If somebody told you that they would give you a million dollars if you jumped out of a plane with a parachute would you do it. Here's the catch though..On board the plane there are 20 parachutes and one of them has lead in it. You get to pick the parachute of your choice but remember one has lead in it and you will fall to your death if you pick that one...Would you take that challenge for a million dollars?

Have you ever gone sky diving? You'd be able to tell when picking up the parachute pack if it was filled with lead?

well i would do it
the difference in weight between silk and lead is very significant so i would trust my chioce in parachutes

And that one would be empty. They think of everything.

If someone asks me to do that, I give them the parachute with lead in it and say sweetly, " You first."devil

If someone says I'll give you a million dollars but there is a 5% chance I will kill you if you take it. That's what you're asking. A one in 20 is a 5% chance of death.

No way. I've spent enough time at the card table and I've seen enough long shots come out to know that would be a fools gamble.

I'm assuming your OP doesn't have a catch, like being able to look in the bag for the lead or the plane already being on the ground.

Assuming it had lead in it, I think I'd know which one was heavier than the others. By the way, do I get to do it blind folded?? laugh laugh laugh laugh
