Squid Game: The Challenge” are causing a legal dispute due to claims of injuries.
Controversial new Netflix show “Squid Game: The Challenge” is in trouble as two contestants claim they suffered from cold and nerve damage during filming. They are preparing to take legal action with the support of a British law firm known for handling personal injury cases. The contestants say they not only faced mental stress but also physical pain during the filming of the first game, ‘Red Light, Green Light.’
The law firm, Express Solicitors, argues that the contestants endured more than just the risk of losing the game; they were allegedly stuck in painful positions in cold conditions at Cardington Studios in the UK. Netflix admitted that three contestants out of 456 needed medical attention during the shoot.
Express Solicitors’ CEO, Daniel Slade, describes the situation as a modern David versus Goliath story, emphasizing that the contestants did not expect to suffer injuries during what they thought would be a fun experience. However, a spokesperson for the show denies that a lawsuit has been filed, assuring the public that the contestants’ well-being is a priority.
Earlier this year, an independent safety inspection was conducted after medical incidents on set, but the Health and Safety Executive in Britain concluded that no further action was necessary.
“Squid Game: The Challenge” debuted on Netflix on November 22, offering a suspenseful two-week journey until December 6. The show features 456 real contestants competing for a $4.56 million cash prize. Despite divided opinions online about the risks involved, some seeing it as a publicity stunt, others argue that the contestants willingly accepted the challenges and should face the consequences.
