Boy Dies On Russian Version Of Channel 4 Show Boys And Girls Alone

by | 5th, April 2009

IN the Southern Russian town Novoshakhtinsk, a boy, age 7, and three other children have been left to their own devices. It’s Channel 4’s pisspoor TV show Boys And Girls Alone, Russia.

Ten boys and ten girls, aged between eight and eleven, are given the chance to experience life without adults for two weeks

The Russian children agree to play a horror game called Maniac, and the seven-year-old grabs a kitchen knife and begins chasing his friends. He then knifes himself in the head. He dies.

The report:

“The other children rushed to shut the door just at the moment, when the child with the knife was running towards them. As soon as the door shut, the children heard him crying.”

Roll cameras:

The boy apparently hit the door while running and accidentally stabbed himself in the head. He later died in hospital. An investigation is underway to decide whether a criminal case should be opened.

Now that’s entertainment…
