Weeknights @ 9pm

“Imagine a world where your greatest fears become reality.”

This smash hit American reality game show changed the face of gaming television and paved the way for the extreme endurance tests so popular on television today.

In each pulse-racing episode, four pairs of contestants perform a number of large scale challenges designed to play on their deepest, darkest phobias. In order to succeed they must face up to their fears and overcome them, often stretched to their mental and psychical limits in order to do so. If they fail a stunt, they are eliminated. If they refuse to complete a stunt, they are eliminated. If they succeed however, they move one step closer to the grand cash prize.

With massive production budgets affording huge sets and elaborate challenges, Fear Factor pushed contestants to breaking point with some of the most extreme stunts ever seen on television. Jumping from heights, being electrocuted, crashing cars, swimming with reptiles – nothing is off limits in this jaw-dropping show.

In this latest series, Season Six, stunts include Crab Dump Escape, Submerged Bug Box, Isolation Pod, Scorpion Helmet Spin, Eat The Camel Spider, and the Tunnel Escape, where contestants navigate a subterranean tunnel maze filled with sewage, rats, giant tarantulas and two walls of fire.

The fear is here, every weeknight on Challenge.
