Default Fear Factor?

Anyone here watched the American show Fear Factor? Think they did a Uk version with a few celebs a while back too.

I love it yeah, the American one is 10x better than the UK one, the UK one really is poor. I love the American one though, i watch it most nights depending on whether or not my mum is there, she doesn't like all the horrible stuff, ha.

I actually thought you meant Scare Tactics at first...I used to watch that late at nights, back on Sky One.

Never watched Fear Factor, although I hear it takes your fears to the biggest level....:|

I have watched it a few times and it is gross but quite funny. I agree the american one is much better and listening to the Uk version just doesn't match up. I think Joe Regan is a great presenter of it as he always inspires them to continue. I don't think I could do many of the tasks set especially the eating...this prog makes Im a celeb get me outta here look easy! What has been everyones fave task? I would say the worse test I have watched would of been on couples fear factor when they poured bucket loads of tarantulas on top of the girls.

I think I'd be okay at the eating ones...for Ł50,000, I'd be in the mentality where I'd be sure it was worth it.

I watched it once, where they had to walk on something between two very big buildings. I could never ever do that.

I think alot of the people think that but when its actually comes down to doing it they can easily be effected by the other housemates and having to watch them and some of them even putting each other off trying to make them be sick lol. I have seen many "tough looking" guys which I think oh he will do it easily for them then to take one sip and give up lol.

I didn't really like how they changed the format for the UK version of the show. I liked that bloke who hotes it though... Ed Moliano from Dream Team.

The US version was excellent though. They had some really good tasks.

I haven't really payed much attention to the Uk version I seen one celeb special and just didn't think it was a patch on the Us version. I think the Uk host is naff compared to the Us guy...based on one clip I seen I didn't like. Maybe I should see if he grows on me lol.

You can call me crazy...but I will apply for the first ever Fear Factor Finland. As for BB, I will apply to FF out of curiosity.

FFF will be filmed in Argentina from mid-April to mid-June. This year.

I think the worst challenge would be drinking those disgusting shakes.
