SHOW
DESCRIPTION
A group of contestants is challenged to perform a number of terrifying and/or disgusting stunts, from driving a dangerous course to eating something really nasty. If a contestant refuses a challenge, fails in a challenge, or has the worst performance in a challenge, that contestant is eliminated from the competition. The contestant (or team) that manages to complete all of the stunts, including finishing the final stunt in the fastest time, wins the $50,000 prize. The rest? Well, they get nothing (except maybe a mouthful of worms). Joe Rogan hosts.
