  1. A Chappelle’s Show clip is always a good inclusion, regardless of the topic. It’s unfortunate he couldn’t/wouldn’t continue the show longer.

  2. I knew it was gonna be semen one day. I knew it.

    It was just a question of time. srly NBC, stop doing things half assed. Just give the people what they want and have a horse blowin’ contest.

  3. I’m mostly offended by the improper use of the word “fear.” Who has a “fear” of being asked to drink horse semen on television? It’s just something gross that normal people don’t want to do.

  4. @5 Yeah. The rest of the show can be sort of interesting in terms of the athletic ability required to complete the stunts.

    Some of those stunts are indeed somewhat frightening. Particularly people dangling from helicopters – those fuckers DO crash pretty regularly when flown that close to the ground.

    But the gross out stuff? It ruins whatever slightly interesting thing the show may attempt.

    The gross out shit immediately makes me discount anybody who would do them as fucking attention whore side-show freaks with no sense of dignity al all.

    I can’t watch it. Not because it’s gross. But because I suddenly realize there are people out there so fucking stupid and awful that they would happily drink a bucket of donkey cum in front of their moms for a couple of minutes on TV.

    And WORSE that there are people out there who think WATCHING people drink donkey cum is great.

    And that realization makes me very depressed.
