Stare fear in the face for $ 50,000.00!
Fear may come in the way of walking a tightrope stretched between two 10 story buildings...Jumping from one moving truck to another at speeds of 40 miles per hour to collect as many flags as you can...Dropping from a moving helicopter into a ''bulls eye'' set up into the water.
Eating, YES, I said eating cows intestines, bull's testicles, sheep eyes, hissing cockroaches, night crawler worms or diving into 2 tons of fish guts to retrieve raw horse spleens!
Or it could come in the way of 100's of other disgusting and frightening stunts on Fear Factor! Hosted by Joe Rogen, this reality show pits 6 people, 3 men against 3 women, or couples against couples or all men or all women against each other, all competing for the chance to win $ 50,000,00!
Here in the U.S. the show airs on Monday nights at 8 P.M. and I can guarantee that many people, (including me) schedule around the show so as not to miss a thing.
The three couples all begin with the first stunt and compete against each other for the fastest time. The person with the slowest time is then eliminated and round 2 begins and next it goes to round 3. When they finish competing the ?last one standing? or the person with the fastest time wins the $50,000.00.
If for any reason no one can finish the 1st stunt they all move on to the second and the prize is dropped to $25,000.00. If only 1 person finishes the first stunt, that person wins $25,000.00 and everyone comes back to compete for the remaining $25,000.00.
The most interesting thing about this show is that people can actually do some of the stunts! I cannot picture myself eating ANY of the disgusting things I?ve seen an the show.
I guess I don?t have what it takes! And, I?ll bet most of you out there don?t either.
So, for a fun filled hour I suggest catching Fear Factor!
