Renewed warnings that people are 'rolling the dice with their life' when partaking in 'run it straight' style games.
Ryan Satterthwaite has died after a private version of the game in Palmerston North.
The 19-year-old suffered a serious brain injury on Sunday and died in hospital on Monday.
AUT Human Performance Professor Patria Hume told Ryan Bridge Police can intervene in these games, particularly at official events.
She says event organisers are legally required to ensure the health and safety of participants.
