Guest Angrycole Report post Posted November 6, 2004 I just saw a commercial for Fear Factor this week and it features the contestants putting rats in a blender and DRINKING it. That is the most disgusting thing i have ever heard. Be sure to tune in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ted the Poster 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2004 Watch PETA be all over this one. *sprays repellant* Get outta here, PETA! Go on, get! I've never been a big Fear Factor fan, but I must watch this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 Okay, all PETA and cruelty issues aside [i mean, are the rats dead already?] that's still fucking gross. Who know what kind of shit you could contract from drinking something like that. *gag* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shutterspeed Report post Posted November 7, 2004 Exactly. I doubt the probability of them doing that to real rats, not out of care for the animal, but because it's fucking gross and they could die from it. Besides, they wouldn't do something like on a show like Fear Factor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Shutterspeed Report post Posted November 7, 2004 I'm just finding it hard to grasp the fact that they'd feed contestants untouched rats in a blender on a mainstream TV show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taker666 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 Words can't describe how much I fuckin hate this show. Why would I want to waste my time watching a bunch of rednecks eating a horse's dick or swim in a pool of dead squids. They're all just a bunch of broke morons desperate for cash.

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 A - The rats are probably clean from some lab or something. B - I could do just about any of the eating stunts, but I would be dead in anything else. There should just be an Iron Stomach show or something.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ted the Poster 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 C - Classifying the contestants as rednecks desperate for money is both idiotic and evidence of uninformed, overassuming bias. People talking about shit they know nothing about irritates me to no end. No hard feelings, new guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There should just be an Iron Stomach show or something.. I don't think it matters whether or not they're clean or from "some lab or something." Putting the raw carcass of any animal in a blender and then drinking what comes out cannot be good for you. I mean, shit, I hear about so many people getting food poisoning from raw fish.. I can only imagine what raw rat brings to the table. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eating a scorpion sure as hell wouldn't be thought as being 'safe' but they've done it on a few shows. Half the shit they do is something that makes you think...'Wow, that person's gonna be sick as hell after they leave the show' but evidently...that hasn't been teh case or else the show would have been stopped a season or two back..So I guess it can't be all that dangerous.

Guest Angrycole Report post Posted November 7, 2004 I think I would just ralph after a stunt with eating involved. Me and my brother want to do twin teen fear factor. we would totally kick ass. we are so ripped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 I've seen very few rednecks on Fear Factor. Most of the time they get jocks, pretty boys, bimbos, and athletic girls. Every stinkin week they get people that look like models on that show it seems. For once I want to see them do an average joe fear factor where not everyone looks styled and fit.

Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 Like Chappelle's Show, the skit where Tyron Biggums was on Fear Factor. Get someone who actually wants to eat the stuff...and then beg for more . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AboveAverage484 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2004 They should change the name of this show to "Gross Factor" because that seems to be the focus now instead of, you know, actually doing scary stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2004 Should just be called "Dumbass Factor" since none of this involves fear. I'm sorry, who here has ever said, "my biggest fear is putting rats in a blender and drinking them!" It used to be the show involved FEAR. Now it just involves proving how incredibly stupid and how far you will take yourself for material crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Haps' Happenin' Report post Posted November 8, 2004 Well, there's only so much they can do with fear. Gross stuff is certainly a fear for some people, you could argue. Look at people who are afraid of spiders, and those who are afraid of snakes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 What's your point? Most of the shows have to do with them. Which involves Fear...so Fear Factor is fitting. It just so happens that on those same shows...usually another challenge involves them eating something sick...which, if you've ever seen the show, is evidently a fear for a lot of people :/ You can call me dumb if you want...but 50,000 is a lot of money. I'd be on the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crimson Platypus 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 A friend of mine tried out for the show. It's completely fixed. They pay you a certain amount to lose at a certain time. Not only that, but if you aren't model good looking, or really well built, just stay home as you have no chance of making it on the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crimson Platypus 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 He never made it on the show, he's not exactly what you would call... man-pretty. The thing is, the guy is a beast, he could do some serious damage on the show. Remember the guy from Michigan that went all nuts in that tub of blood?
