Contestants from the Netflix series 'Squid Game: The Challenge' are reportedly seeking compensation for injuries they allegedly sustained during the competition. The legal representation for two unnamed players claims that these individuals suffered injuries such as hypothermia and nerve damage. Express Solicitors has taken on the case, alleging that the injuries occurred when participants were required to maintain stillness in cold conditions during the 'Red Light, Green Light' game.

Studio Lambert, the co-producer of the show, has emphasized its commitment to player welfare and contends that necessary steps were taken to prepare contestants for the demanding conditions. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) confirmed contact with the producers in response to concerns raised during filming. However, no official lawsuit has been filed yet.

Netflix confirmed that three out of 456 players required medical attention during shooting, but did not provide further details. The show, which is a spinoff of the South Korean series 'Squid Game', came under fire earlier this year when allegations of unsafe filming conditions were reported. Despite liability waivers, questions are raised about the ethical boundaries of reality TV and the extent to which participants should be put at risk for entertainment.
