In any given year, there are about 16,000 gun-related deaths in the United States. Of these, about 1,000 are from accidental discharge, 500 are from suicides not involving firearms, and 100 are from legal interventions (such as police shootings).
This leaves about 14,400 homicides by firearm each year.
If we assume that the number of people playing Russian Roulette is proportional to the number of gun-related deaths in the US, then we can estimate that there are about 875 people playing Russian Roulette each year in the United States.
Of these 875 players, about 145 will die from the game. This means that the probability of dying from Russian Roulette is approximately 16.
