Welcome to Risky Business, the game where we find out how far people will go to win a prize! Today’s contestants are a 21 year-old, a 16 year-old, and a 12 year-old. They'll compete in a series of three challenges: eating ghost pepper cookies, swimming in honey, and crossing a balance beam over poison ivy. Who will win? Dan Kwartler takes a look at how people at different ages make decisions.

Lesson by Dan Kwartler, directed by Michalis Kalopaidis, Zedem Media.
