Five strangers decide how to split $100,000. The first takes it all, leaving $4,000 for the rest. By the time the money reaches the last person, only $1,000 remains. Each person's greed shrinks what everyone else gets.

This is $100,000, and there are 4 people behind you. You can decide to take the money for yourself, or you can split it with them. Your fair share would be $20,000. Mm-hmm. But if you want, you can just take the whole $100,000, and then they'd all get $0. Tell me, what do you think?
Sure.
What do you mean, sure? You want all of it?
No, I don't know any of them. Yeah, I'll take it all.
Ah! If you take it all, they'll all get $0. I understand.
OK. Ah! I guess I've got enough to give somebody else else a chance.
How do I put this? It's all gone. How much of this $4,000 do you want? Zero. What? How does it make you feel that there's only $4,000 left?
I mean, people are greedy.
How do you think the two people after you will feel? Now there's only one grand.
I'll take $500.
Thank you. Yep. The four people in front of you decided to leave you with $500.
He's got money falling out of his jacket.
He took $96,000. When do we get to fight this guy?
