A United Kingdom-based law firm representing two contestants from “Squid Game: The Challenge” is considering legal action against the Netflix series’ producers over injuries that allegedly occurred during filming of the series in January.

The contestants claim that they suffered “injuries such as hypothermia and nerve damage as a result of poor health and safety standards on set.” They are seeking compensation from the show’s coproducer Studio Lambert.

“We have sent letters of claim on behalf of contestants injured in this show. From what we’ve been told they pushed the boundaries of safety in the name of entertainment,” Express Solicitors CEO Daniel Slade said in a statement.
