New research has revealed the top controversial bets that Britons would be keen to make but can’t. Those includes sensitive things like Donald Trump’s assassination and at what age the Queen and David Attenborough will live to. Interestingly enough there is also that Prince Harry will have an affair.

Nowadays you can bet almost on everything and new research has been looking at the most controversial bets that Britons would like to bet on, if they were available from bookmakers, the most popular being the age of when the Queen will die. The average length, according to those who’d like to bet on it, is a bet being 105 years old. David Attenborough went just short of that as the average bet was at 103 years old.

The team at CasinoBiggestBonus.com conducted the research as part of an ongoing study into British attitudes towards gambling. 2,733 Britons were quizzed about the controversial subjects that they would place bets on if they were available, all of whom were aged 18 and over.

Initially, all respondents were asked ‘If you were to place a bet on anything, what would it be?’ to which the most popular topics were ‘celebrity lifestyles’ (20%), ‘politics’ (18%) and ‘celebrity deaths’ (15%); ‘sport’ (14%) came in at fourth most popular. When asked why celebrity lifestyles and deaths were so popular, respondents cited reasons such as ‘I am very interested in what happens to celebrities’ (33%) and ‘it’s really fun to keep up with celebrity lifestyles’ (32%).

All respondents were then asked what controversial subjects they would place a bet on, if there was a market offered by gambling companies. When provided with a list of possible responses and told to select all that applied, the top 10 most wanted risky bets were revealed as follows:

• The age which the Queen will live to – 48%
