For the first stunt as two semi trucks drove side by side at over 40 miles per hour, contestants would have to jump the 7-foot gap between the two. Those who landed on the second truck trailer without using their hands to pull themselves up would advance to the next round. The second stunt they took lying down in a glass box and being covered with over 300,000 super worms. They would to have stick their hands in a bowl of super worms and draw from pieces of paper numbered 0, 1, and 5. The number they drew would be the number of worms they would have to eat before getting in the coffin. They had four minutes to finish and if they did they would advance to the finals. Finally, those left would be strapped to stretched bungee cords and be catapulted over 100 feet in the air. While they were being catapulted, they would have to fire a paintball gun at a large target. Contestants would also have to take a turn being strapped to the center of the target hanging 80 feet above the ground when... Written by K.P. Manning

A leap of faith for the first stunt as contestants would ride on a jet ski as a helicopter flew overhead. They would grab on to the helicopter skit and use cargo netting to climb into the helicopter. Contestants who completed this stunt would advance. It's beetle eating for the second stunt as those left would bowl one frame and knock down as many pins as possible. The number of pins left standing would be the number of live beetles they would have to eat. Everyone who ate their beetles in the time limit (30 seconds per beetle) would advance. In the final stunt the players would have crawl on their bellies across a 60-foot tightrope between two rooftops over 100 feet high. If they flipped to the underside of the rope, two minutes would be added on to their time. The contestant to get from one end of the rope to the other in the fastest time would win the $50,000.

The first stunt is a net jump as the contestants have to climb to the top of a 110 foot tower and jump twice their body length to a cargo net hanging across from the tower. Contestants who were able to hang on to the net for 5 seconds would advance to the next round. It's eating for stunt two as the ones left have to eat five earthworms and one super worm in a martini glass. Contestants who were able to do this in 4 minutes would advance to the finals. Lastly, the final contestants have to crawl through a pitch-black drainage system. The first pipe led to a wet and slimy culvert connected to several other pipes, but only one pipe besides the entry pipe did not have a dead end. The tunnel was rigged with infrared cameras so viewers could see the contestants in the dark tunnels. The contestant to reach the end of the exit tunnel fastest would win the $50,000. Written by K.P.

For the first stunt, the six would have to fire a starter's pistol and run to a finish line in a padded suit. After they fired the pistol, a trained attack dog would attempt to take them down. They would have a minute to cross the finish line. In the event that not everyone completed the stunt, the four contestants to get closest to the finish line would advance to the next round. It's great snakes for the second stunt as the contestants would have to lie in a pit and be covered with 24 snakes, including a 16-foot boa constrictor. Everyone who stayed in the pit for three minutes would advance to the finals. If anyone was bit, they would automatically advance. Lastly contestants would have to walk across a 6-inch wide balance beam over 100 feet high, retrieve a flag, walk back across, and plant the flag. The contestant to do this the fastest would win the $50,000. Written by K.P. Manning

Dive, Dive, Dive... For the first stunt contestants dive into 55 degree water, swim 7 feet down, and retrieve glow sticks from the underside of the sub. The two men and the two women to collect the most glow sticks on one breath would advance. It's crunching crickets for stunt two. Each player throws a dart at a dartboard with numbers ranging from 1 to 8. They number they hit is how many live crickets they have to eat. Everyone who ate their designated number of crickets within the time limit (one minute per cricket) would advance to the finals. In the final stunt the ones left are hung by their ankles over 130 feet high and dropped down a zip line at 60 miles per hour. As they went over a large target, they would have to drop a beanbag. The contestant whose beanbag landed closest to the bull's-eye would win the $50,000. Written by K.P. Manning

For the first stunt called 'free fall', the contestants have to climb out of a 12th floor hotel window and hang from a trapeze bar. Then have to let go and plummet 120 feet to the ground with only a small cable to keep them from hitting the concrete using what is called a decelerator. Everyone who did this would advance to the next round. It's eating for stunt two as the one's left must eat 3 sheep eyeballs. Everyone who did this in the three-minute time limit would advance to the finals. In the final stunt the one's left would be hung upside-down and lowered into a tank of water. The contestant who could hold their breath the longest in the tank would win the $50,000. Written by K.P. Manning
