KING OF THE MOUNTAIN

SEVERAL PERSONS GET A RAFT IN THE WATER OR SOME
FLOATING (LARGE) OBJECT. THEN ONE PERSON GETS
IN ONE CORNER AND ANOTHER PERSON GETS IN THE OTHER
CORNER, AND THEY TRY TO PUSH ONE PERSON OFF THE RAFT,
IF THIS PERSON CAN STAY ON THE RAFT HE IS KING,
IF HE GETS PUSHED OFF, THEN THE ONE WHO PUSHES HIM
GETS TO BE KING.
