Default fear factor

do you watch this show? i love watching this show because i really think that the challenges are awesome and very cool. although it may be gross but then it is good to see people do the challenge for money.

It's been a long time since I saw this one. The fear factor doesn't get into play much though except when the contestant's phobias kick off. From what I've seen a lot still depends on physical fitness, a lot of dare with the things they eat and you just have to be a decent swimmer if you decide to sign up.

I used to watch Fear Factor just to see what people had to eat. Some of the stuff I'd be willing to try with no problem.

yes, i think that when you try to join, you should be a good driver and swimmer because most of the stunts are related to swimming and driving. and my favorite challenge in this show is the eating part.

To really put fear in the contests, I'd like to see the show have contestants carry real dead bodies around or put them on guard duty graveyard shift on a graveyard.

wow, you have a very wide imagination. lol. but that is a good idea. i also like heavy challenges like that. i think it is time for this show to create more exciting and breath taking challenges.

I got sick of this show ages ago. I loved it at first, but it soon became "who can eat the grossest nastiest crap factor" instead of "FEAR factor." Most people aren't "afraid" to eat raw animal guts, they're just DISGUSTED by it and can't keep it down. XD I'd rather see things that truly play on psychological fears... you know, Silent Hill style.

Like somnilocus, I grew bored of the show a long time ago. For me, part of the shock factor wore off and the show grew tiresome.

I am also too fond of watching these shows and I have dream of being part of such shows. It is wonderful to meet challenges and the best part is that everything is made so safe for the participants. Except for eating creepy things I can take up any sort of challenge.
