Fear Factor

Contestants will both be hanging by their ankles from a crane above the water at Falls Lake. On go the contestants will repeatedly be dunked in and out of the water from a height of 15-20 feet. They will each be wearing a jerk vest with 12 flags attached to it by dog clips. The game will end once all the flags have been detached from both the contestants. Each couple must sit inside a large metal barrel in a kneeling position where they will compete against opposing couples in an endurance challenge. While in the barrel the couple will face a series of mental and physical challenges designed to draw them out of their barrel (heat, cold, insects, bugs, steam, low-voltage electrical shocks, horrible smells and water). In order to draw the head to head competition to a close the contestants will face a final challenge where they will have to hold shut a series of weighted valves in order to keep their barrel from flooding with water. Once the couple can no longer hold the valve and their barrel fills with water they will be eliminated. The couple that can prevent their barrel from filling with water the longest will be awarded a prize. Contestants are driving on a swervy course while trying to run through a series of water barrels and phone-booth-sized wooden structures. At the end of the run they must turn a corner onto a ramp and drive thru a small shack as a device is activated that will flip the car end over end down the ramp. Whoever knocks down the most structures the fastest wins.
