Le Jeu de la Mort

Le Jeu de la Mort (The Game of Death) is a French television documentary that was broadcast by the French public television channel France 2. The documentary centers around a conduction of the Milgram experiment in a game show-like setting, encouraging subjects to administer increasingly stronger electric shocks to trained actors posing as contestants as punishment for incorrect answers, encouraged to do so by the host and audience.

The documentary was presented as a social commentary on the effects of humiliation in reality television and obeying orders, and its broadcast was followed by a studio discussion on the programme.
