Hello dear cheongyc. I guess that this is another scary movie as I have read some of the responses to this discussion. I love to see scary movies though they scare me a lot. So what exactly does this movie talk about? Thanks.

Hello williamjisir, it's not a scary movie. It's also a reality show like Apprentice. Each team consists of a man and a woman, usually couple, and they need to strive to the final stage. One team will be eliminated after each round of the challenge. The challenge usually need them to perform scary action like, jumping off the helicopter, walking on the hanging rope, stay with bugs (spiders, worm, caterpillar, & etc) or eating funny thing eg like bull’s eye, goat’s eye, spiders, maggots & etc. It’s really not easy and many people will give up eventually. The winner will get a big sum of money.

I used to watch it all the time. Very interesting how they could take an average person and convince them to do all those things.
I have not seen that show for quite a while now. But I always wondered if there would come a time when one of the contestants would be harmed. Jumping from a train to a car or the other way around is not something the average person would do.
I assume nothing ever happend or it would have been very bad for that show.
But the concept was very interesting.

It's the magic of determination and strong will, that turn an average person into what you see in this reality show. All of us have some kind of gift. If it's applied correct, which can turn us into a great person.
I think the fear factor organizer will put safety as their priority, coz once someone got hurt, then nobody want to participate and that will be the end of the show.
Ya, it's really interesting in overall.
Thanks for your response!

I do like Fear Factor, off the three segments, I only like the first and the third segment where they involved physical activities and a bit of strategy.
The 2nd segment at time put me off, eating really werid things that I will never put into my mouth.

I am totally agree with you. I like the action parts and pretty disgutsted by those bug-eating segments. I will never put those things in my mouth too! They are too gross for me. While i am watching, i could even feel like vomitting on the spot.
Thanks for the sharing :)

Yeah, that's the main selling point of the program. There are ton's of action and challenge which i dare not to take. Like eating bugs, organs and hanging high in the air....it makes me shivers at the thought of it. And, i admire those people who got the gut to take it :)
Thanks for the response.

I watch the show occassionally sometimes their challenges are too gross and i just close my eyes so that i won't puke..what i like most are those challenges that are done in high buildings and those people hanging in the air..i enjoy watching most of it except the eating of gross insects or part of the animals.

I like to watch it as well, for all its exciting stunts and the courage the participants exhibit. But I swear I am not gonna to be part of the game. It's really disgusting and scary to be eating bugs or bulls' eyes. Besides, staying in an enclosed box with all the bugs crawling on you is definitely not an good idea for me. Thanks for your response and point of view, brew2x!

I like to watch this programme but I dare not take part as the competitor because it is so awful to eat some food which is so
disgust and so horrible!
