    A crowd looks on. Like spectators at a gladiator pit, they demand excitement. They get it! One man reaches for an egg, palms it, then smashes it against his forehead. The yolk explodes, the crowd roars, and the competitor hangs his head in shame, eliminated from the Egg Russian Roulette.

    Yes, it's a real thing. Here's how it works: Two people reach into a carton of six eggs. Five are hard boiled and one isn't. If you get the one that isn't, you're out of the contest and in need of a shower ASAP.
