The Most Dangerous Game is the popular short story originally published in 1924 which was written by Richard Connell. This is the story of a big game hunter who is trapped on an island with a fellow hunter, who is uninterested in hunting stereotypical prey, and instead decides that the only prey worthy of his skills is other humans. This title is often required reading in middle schools, and has been since adapted into movies and extended versions. This title is the original version by the author, and is considered one of the greatest short stories ever written.
It's the classic short story written over 100 years ago, The Most Dangerous Game, which is where the title The Most Dangerous Man comes from. And the premise again, people have seen it in movies if nothing else before the concept of human beings hunting other human beings for sport.
