Quotes: Death Course
Five kilometers filled with razor wire, pit falls and half demolished buildings. Cultist murder squads drenging the ruins for survivors to torture; human bombers hiding in alcoves, trembling fingers on grenade pins; eviserator priests leading flocks with wire sewn mouths. It was the most expedient route available to Aura Hieron.
Fires of War, Warhammer 40000

Another day, another death course.

SUPERVILLAINY 201: Tricky, but doable
Remember gang, we want to take out Mega Man... but only after he's marveled at our Machiavellian stage design!

Please note that we have added a consequence for failure. Any contact with the chamber floor will result in an "Unsatisfactory" mark on your official testing record, followed by death. Good luck!
GLaDOS, Portal

What is this thing? I mean, it serves no useful purpose for there to be a bunch of chompy, crushy things in the middle of a hallway! No, I mean we shouldn't have to do this, it makes no logical sense, WHY IS IT HERE?!
Gwen DeMarco. Galaxy Quest

To start preparing for human testing again, I checked an old suggestion box. The number one request? Less deadly tests. That's ridiculous: how do they know for sure the tests are deadly if they could still write the suggestion?
GLaDOS, Portal 2
