"Wipeout: Season #2."

Okay, I think I get this. The whole idea is to rework the course until no one can finish, keep the 50k prize, and just watch people injure themselves for an hour. Right?

The sliding rope line on the slippery wall is the worst challenge design I've ever seen.

I thought the point was seeing how drunk you could get the contestants before starting the course.

From the face plants, I bet the dentists association is behind this. Allied with the orthopedics doctors. And the facial reconstruction specialists.

It’d be fun to be a writer on that show (for the commentators lines).

Gee, I have rare clotting disorder (that they never test for in routine physicals because it is rare so if I don't disclose, they probably won't find out) so I'm going to go on a TV show with a high probability of injury.

Although it could have been he just shook a clot loose from the recent trip to Europe as they say people with this have to be careful of long plane trips.

I saw his picture and he appears to be a young man in good shape. As a nurse, when I was working on an orthopedic floor, these patients all had an increased possibility of throwing a clot and dying. We usually would routinely put patients on blood thinners, but often there was no warning. If a patient ever said "I feel funny", we would take it serious, because sometimes that was the only warning.

There were three seasons of a show I never heard about in the first place?
