Subject: make Fear Factor more fun:

Written By: jamminoldies on 01/22/02 at 09:45 p.m.

I was just thinking of some ideas that could make Fear factor fun:

-each contestant has to be chased by a pack of wild wolves and dogs.The host would have to clock in how many times that contestant had run around the block.winner stays in the finals. :)

-each contestant is thrown in a humongous barrel of M and Ms in one tank.The host would get to see how many Mand Ms that contestant can wolf down in 2 minutes.("BURP"!)

-each contestant is being thrown in a barrel of gerbils in the tank.

-each contestant is being thrown in a pack of pigeons.Yes!good one.  ;D

-One more,each contestant is being thrown in a tank of urine.

Ok,you can vomit now! ;D :P

Or they could make the contestants ride on the train next to someone with a fake cell phone and a really loud walkman....

*Jonman slaps himself* ;)

I saw the Maury Povich show this afternoon about women with extreme phobias. A few women were so afraid of reptiles that they bolted to the back stage. Maybe people like that should be on "Fear Factor".

ok,I apologize myself.

(*gives you a handshake*)  ;D

So what if the host of FF threw in a tank of urine?
would you survive in it? I wouldn't.chances are that urine contains an odor that is unbearable and you'd pass out b4 2 minutes are up.You'd lose the challenge.

At the risk of making myself seem pretty damn stupid, which isn't far of a stretch, what is Fear Factor?  I've never heard of it...

It is a show that starts out with 6 contestants.  The do a stunt (something like a bull ride or walking on the wing of an airplane).  The two that didn't make it or at least made it in the slowest time are booted off.

Then they go to the next day and another stunt (something like lying in a box surrounded by snakes etc).  The people that can finish that one go to the final.  

The final stunt is something like driving a car off a parking garage.  The winner is the one who goes the farthest or in some stunts the fastest.  The winner gets $50,000.

It is a hoot to watch, don't think I would ever do it though. :)
