FEAR FACTOR fans - what do you believe was the worst stunt that the contestants have had to pull thus far?

Exactly what the title of the thread says :)

There are three rounds as we all konw... and I would have to say that the 2nd round is always the most gross to me.

If I were to pick anything I would have to say that it would come from the 2nd round, because the 1st and 3rd round require more of a physical ability and sensory abilities. The 2nd round is just plain sick and requires a grip of mental strength.

Of what I've seen, my vote would have to go to:

The rats and the rat pit.

Coming as runners up would be the beetle bowling and the buffalo testicles... however in those cases you are eating a delicacy (no matter how gross it is) and having a snack w/ something harmful and crunchy ;)

Remember, the worst stunt can come from any round... I just so happened to have chose one from the second

I look forward to checkin' out your responses :)

I wish they would stop making people eat stuff. Good grief, how hard is it to eat a worm!? Then, some chick will bail out of it just because it looks bad.

I wish they would do more height related things, such as skydiving. The helicopter + jetski stunt was pretty cool.

It's not like those were dirty infested sewer rats, they were probably the type of rats you buy at a pet store. Do you know how big a lawsuit would be slapped on NBC if they put those people in their with dirty rabies-carrying rats?

Konichiwa - the host asked the contestants if they were wondering why the network gave them all rabies shots the day before the stunt...

And besides... those rats didn't look clean at all, and all that sh!t and urine in there?! Bleech! :(

The one guy was bitten in the shoulder too, ouch!

And from that you've concluded that they were in fact sewer rats?

Hahahahaha...

<< Eating bison testicles. >>



What I thought was strange was how the guys could do it but the girls couldn't. I thought it would be the other way around since girls are used to having their mouths near stuff like that.

Eating the Bull Testicles would have been the hardest thing for me. I think the &quot;weakest&quot; stunt was just gliding down 12 stories.

Konichiwa - it's best for me to think of it as real... I lead a very boring life, and to me, assuming that it's real, makes my life 5 times more exciting than it is now!

Oh! The Adelnaline rush ;)

As far as eating anything, their would be three goals:

1.) Disfigure the item to be consumed as soon as possible to reduce any sickening associations

2.) If the item is still alive, make DAMN sure you kill it with the first bite...

3.) Make sure to either distract yourself or simply block all thought pertaining to the task at hand, automate yourself if possible

I've watched a couple minutes of the show and I don't really care a whole lot of the &quot;eating things that are still kicking&quot; aspect of it. The name of the show is &quot;Fear Factor&quot;, not &quot;Gross the Fsck out of Me&quot;.

Making somebody walk across a beam 20 stories high is a fear inducing feat. Eating a handful of crawling things that feast on dead stuff and feces is not fear inducing. That's just plain disgusting.

There isn't a whole lot that they could do physically wise to freak me out, but once they put a vat full of bugs in front of me and tell me to chow down, I'm outta there.

Those were NOT sewer rats... they are actually lab rats... That's what I heard on the radio before that show came on.... but they did have to take rabies shots before playing...

The worst for me is also eating the buffalo testicles too... Just the thought of it makes me sick...

the nuts were the nasty thing they had to eat

The box full of meal worms was probably the worst stunt though
