The stunts you are about to see were all designed and supervised
By trained professionals. They are extremely dangerous,
And should not be attempted by anyone, anywhere, any time.
- It all began ten years ago,
At the dawn of reality television.
- I hate this.
- Audiences had never seen anything like it.
- You're just trying to stay calm.
- I don't think I can do this.
- Now the legend begins all over again.
[crashing and explosions]
- [screams] - it's bigger...
[boom] - it's amazing!
- Badder... - [screams]
- And more intense than ever before.
- [crying] it's so hard. - [gasps]
- Welcome back to fear factor.
Fear factor's back, and it's crazier than ever.
[cheers]
- Crazy.
[truck horn blares]
- [screams]
- Oh, damn!
- [screams]
- Grab it and eat it. Eat it!
- [screams]
- [sobs] - [coughs]
- [gasps] - [grunts]]
- Tonight, four teams of exes compete in three stunts.
[boom] and one of the biggest stunts
Fear factor history.
- Ron and I, our relationship has been like an mma title fight
For the last six years.
We do have a formidable look and we came here to intimidate.
- C.C. Is my ex-wife.
We've been divorced for well over a year now.
I still love her.
She's very bossy, very demanding,
And for some reason, I get off on that, I guess.
- Ryan and I are exes from, like, four or five years ago.
- And our skin, and our hair. - We want to--
- Our advantage is we are fabulous.
- Me and shawn broke up because he is a womanizer,
And quite arrogant. - Every playboy has to have that
Hot female best friend to make him look human.
She fits that role perfectly,
And I don't want any attachments.
I live an adventurous life.
Being on fear factor is part of that adventure.
- Hello, hello, what's up? [general greeting]
How are you guys doing? What's going on?
What's up, what's up? How are you, what's happening?
Look at all these exes.
- [laughs] - yup.
- None of you beautiful people could work it out?
- No. - [laughing] no.
- Which one of you guys are the closest
To getting back together?
You guys? Really? - [laughs]
Both: Yeah. - It was that,
Or restraining orders. [laughter]
- So maybe this experience of... - This is a--this is a litmus--
- ...Dominating on this show, and winning all this money,
Maybe that'll do it, right?
Maybe that'll bring you together?
- It could. - And you two guys
Are probably the furthest away?
- [laughing] definitely. - Can't settle a playboy down,
That's for sure. - Are you a playboy, sir?
- Absolutely. We met at the playboy mansion--
- And out of all the dudes that were there,
This is the one, huh? [laughter]
- Were you drunk? - She's got great taste,
You can't-- - I was drunk, actually.
- Were you hammered? Yeah? - I was, I was.
- So all of you feel like you could work together well?
- Yes.
- 'cause this is it.
You four ex-couples have been brought here
From all over the country for one reason,
To stare fear in the eye as you compete for $50,000.
To win the money, you will have to complete
Three extreme stunts.
Stunts that'll test you, not only physically,
But mentally as well.
You are too afraid to attempt the stunt,
You will be eliminated. Try a stunt,
But fail to do as well as your opponents,
You're gone, but if you do succeed,
You will move on to the next round,
And be that much closer to the cash.
Ready to see your first stunt?
All: Yes! - Yeah!
- Here it is.
You will race up that ramp, smash through that wall,
And plunge into the tank of water.
As the car sinks to the bottom,
You'll be trapped inside until you can unscrew those wingnuts
To open the box and release those two flags.
Once you reach the surface,
You must post the two flags to stop the clock.
The team that does this the slowest today
Will be eliminated.
We have randomly selected today's order,
And jillian and ryan, you guys are lucky number one.
- I'm ready. - Heck, yeah!
- Come with me, come on. - [laughs]
[applause] - don't mess your hair up.
- It's okay. - She won't.
- I was talking about him. - I'm sure there's a mirror
In the car somewhere.
- All right, jillian and ryan.
So explain to america what happened with you guys,
How come you broke up? - We're friends,
But we're just not good lovers.
- You're not good lovers? - No.
- [laughs] - dude, you might be
The whitest guy in america. Are you a vampire?
- This might be the most sun I'm getting all year, so--
- If you auditioned for twilight,
And I was a casting director,
I'd be like, "let's call this guy back in."
- Nice. - Oh, thank, joe.
- Good luck, guys. [hand slaps]
- Thanks, baby. - Good luck.
- Thanks, joe.
- All right, folks, what do you think about these two?
- They're gonna choke. - They're gonna choke?
- Yeah. - Really?
- Whoo! - Okay, girl,
You gotta rev that engine. - This is not like my mercedes.
- It's gonna ruin their hair, they can't stand that.
- You think so? - Yeah, they've already drowned,
As far as I'm concerned. - Who's your biggest competition
Here, do you think? - Nobody.
- Nobody? - My motto in life is
To minimize worries and maximize life experiences.
- Do you write all this down before you say it?
- No need to, I live it. - He has a book.
- And what is your book, so people can not buy it?
- [laughs] - my book is called,
The showstopper lifestyle. - And is it you on the cover,
In, like, furs, going like this? - Yes, actually,
Minus the fur. - [laughter]
- That is exactly what it is. - No furs?
- [laughs]
[engine starts]
- We got this. - Got this.
- Jillian and ryan, I'm gonna count you down!
In three... Two...
One... Go!
- You got it, you got it.. - I got it, I got it.
- Oh, my god! - Whoo!
- [screams] [crash]
- No, no.
- After that impact, I doubt they had a chance
To even catch their breath
Before they were completely under water.
All right, they have got to unscrew those wingnuts
And release those flags, and .
They're doing two at a time.
They've been down there a long time.
Looks like they got it open.
- [gasps] - all right, they popped up!
They've got 'em!
Now they gotta swim over and post the flags
To stop the clock.
- Come on, babe!
- He's helping her up.
- Whoo! - Can we get--
- I dropped it. - That's gonna cost them.
- Get it, get it, get it. - I know, get 'er done!
- Time! - Oh!
- Wha! - Oh, my god, baby! Oh, oh.
- Welcome back. - Whoo!
[cheers and applause] - [sighs]
- Your time was 1:10, congratulations.
- Whoo! - There they go.
- Good job. - C.C. And joe, what do you guys
Think about this? - We're ready.
- You're ready? - We've been ready all day,
Absolutely.
- Joe, you're the quiet one here, huh?
- She told him to shut up.
- Are you bossy? - Only when need to be.
- Is that why you guys broke up?
- No, but--although I did order the breakup.
[laughs] - you ordered--
But are you both happy that you're broken up?
- I definitely--there's times I miss being, uh,
Miss being married, and all that, but, um--
- It seems to me that you would like to be back with her,
But she would not like to be back with you.
- Come on, just admit it. - All right, whatever,
You're 100% right, joe. - [laughs]
America.
- Laughing her ass off, like it's
The funniest thing in the world. - No, but, you know,
We're best friends. We're best friends, we're okay.
- You are, but-- - and we raise a son together,
So everything real cool. - Right.
All right, get on out there and do it. Go on.
Good luck. Good luck. Go get it. - All right, we're outta here.
- All right, joe. [hand slaps]
- Let's get some predictions. You guys have been there,
What do you think? How are they gonna do?
- Please. - I don't know if--
- Please? - Please.
- With her attitude-- - [laughing] ooh.
- Please? - So I know
We can totally do this. - You look great.
- [laughs] I look great? - Let's do this.
Let's do this, come on. [hand slaps]
- If nothing else, I look great, right?
- Yeah, let's go. - I look at this as
The first step on his long, arduous journey
To becoming a man again. When he comes out of that water,
I hope he leaves the anchor in there.
[engine starts] [engine revs]
- Oh, boy.
- All right, c.C. And joe, I'm gonna count you down!
In three...
Two...
One... Go!
[engine roars] - here we go.
Get us there, get us there, baby. There you go, good.
[crash]
- Oh! Whoo!
- Oh, man, they hit it hard.
There goes their last breath!
- All those bubbles from the sinking car
Make it near-impossible to see anything.
They got the flags!
Moving a little slower than ryan and jillian.
They passed the time of 1:10, you guys are in.
Both: Whoo! - Yeah, baby!
- Time stops when the second flag's clipped.
- Oh, no, not yet, not yet. A scramble.
Time!
1:20! - Oh, all right.
- So you guys got faster, congratulations.
[hand slaps] - you are automatically
In tomorrow.
Shawn and jenny, you guys are next.
- We are ready. Team showstopper.
- How'd you get that moniker?
- It's the showstopper lifestyle.
Minimizing worries, maximizing life experiences.
No fear, showstopper is here.
- Okay, any concerns about drowning, swimming?
How's your swimming? You okay? How's your swimming?
Oh, they call me aquaman.
[laughs] - do they call you aquaman?
Showstopper, aquaman, what other nicknames do you have?
- Man of 1,000 nicknames. - You ready
To get this party started? - Let's do it.
- Ready! - Get on out there, kids.
[cheers and applause] - go get it, good luck.
[hand slaps] good luck.
All right, welcome back, c.C. And joe. How was that?
- What, no clapping? Come on. - [claps] yay!
- [laughing] come on. - How was that?
- You know, it was intense. - What was that like?
- It was awesome. It was cool.
- Joe, did you do it really fast, 'cause you were worried
She was gonna yell at you?
[laughter] - no, not at all. No, no.
It was a lot more than I expected. You know,
When you kinda got under there, it was a little disoriented.
- Uh-huh. - And then all of a sudden,
When the car goes down, man, it just goes down.
- I'll grab the flags.
- And then I grab your ankles. - Yup.
- You better not take off without me.
- I won't. [hand slap]
- The playboy and the beautiful blonde.
- All right, let's see how shawn and jenny pull this off.
- I'll feel so much better after this is done.
- The sun is dipping down, so the water's gonna be
Getting murky, so it's gonna be a little harder for them to see.
[car starts] - all right, are you guys ready?
- Yeah!
- In three...
Two...
One...
Go! [engine roars]
- Here it goes! - It's the grotto
At the playboy mansion.
[crash]
- Let's see what happens.
Taking some time.
I don't know if they can hold their breath much longer.
All right, they're up. Here they go!
- Grab on to me, babe. - She's hanging onto him!
- [coughs] - oh, wow.
Oh, he's gonna try to swim with her.
- [coughs] - oh!
- She can't swim!
- He left her!
- [screams]
- She's going under.
Whoa! This is nuts!
- All right, they're up! Here they go!
- Grab onto me. - She's hanging onto him!
Oh, wow!
Oh, he's gonna try to swim with her.
Whoa!
Whoa, this is nuts!
- [cries]
- He left her!
Whoa! She's going under.
- [sobs]
- My god.
- [screams]
- God. - [whimpers]
- Oh, they had to rescue her.
- Would you really go under there, not knowing how to swim?
- Everybody knows how to swim.
- Maybe he talked her into it.
He got into her with that showstopper lifestyle thing.
[laughter] - well, he almost
Stopped her show, that's for sure.
- Yeah. - [laughs]
- You know what?
This is a life lesson.
- I don't need your life lesson, you took off without me.
- I waited there for you.
- No, you didn't. - [breathes hard]
Come on. Team showstopper till the end.
- All right, obviously, they were disqualified.
The safety divers had to come and rescue 'em.
Congratulations, c.C. And joe. - [shooting sound]
- You guys automatically move on to the next round.
[cheers and applause] - thank you.
- Way to go.
- Ron and julie, it's your turn.
- All right! - Go do it.
- Do it, you guys. - You got this.
- Show 'em what you're made of. - Good luck.
Maybe this'll keep your relationship together.
[hand slaps]
Shawn and jenny, come on back in.
- So what happened out there?
- I don't know how to swim.
- You don't know how to swim at all?
- It seemed like the strategy was, he was gonna rescue you.
- [laughs] - he was gonna swim
And carry you. - He was gonna help me...
- My strategy was to-- - and then he took off
[laughing] without me. - Listen, though,
You were bold and very brave to do it,
And, uh-- - mind if I jump in here?
- Yeah, sure.
- Today we've done a lot of talk about fantasies,
But obviously, we just got hit
By a big, giant dosage of reality,
And for me, obviously, I think I needed a little bit
Of a dosage of humility,
And I feel really humble right now,
But most of all, I feel very, very proud
Of being with this girl who had never been underwater
In her whole life. - Yeah, you did amazing.
- And she did an amazing job. I think she was very brave,
And I'm very proud, this sweet, beautiful woman right here--
- You're coming out of this okay, you know that?
[laughter]
- You're--you are from a long line
Of cocky dudes who have failed on this show.
[laughter] - failed big.
- I think you're ending it on a high note, though.
Congratulations to you for doing that.
- Thank you very much. - I'm sorry it didn't work out
For you, but, uh, very nice meeting both of you.
- Thank you. - [applause]
- Very nice meeting you. - Thank you, great to meet you.
- Take care, you guys. - Good luck, guys. Thank you.
- Bye. - Nice to meet you guys.
- Thank you, guys.
- They actually pulled out of that tailspin
Fairly well, right?
- I'm really upset that we're going home.
- We kept calling ourself "team showstopper,"
Unfortunately, today the show was stopped.
- It's down to julie and ron.
How are they gonna do?
- I have no idea, 'cause I thought, actually,
Red team was gonna kick our butts.
- I've done 148 episodes of fear factor over six years,
And let me tell you something, those guys always fail.
[laughter] - it's ridiculous.
All right, guys, it's been long day.
We're doing this one under the lights.
- It's easy to be brave when you're watching this.
Not so easy when you're sitting in a freezing cold car.
[car starts] - all right, are you guys ready?
- Whoo! - Go!
- I'm gonna count you down! Here we go!
In three...
Two...
One...
Go! - Oh, my god!
- All right, they're off, here it goes!
- [whimpers]
[screams]
[crash] - oh!
- All right, they're going for it!
All they have to do is complete the stunt to move on.
They're spending some-- oh, here they go, they're up!
- Oh, he's a strong swimmer, he's a strong dude.
So is she! - Uh-oh. Uh-oh!
- Oh, look at that ladder, quick!
- You guys got it! - Oh!
- Time! [cheers and applause]
- Whoo! - Very fast, guys!
- Whoo!
- One minute, even! [both scream]
- Let's hear it for the old folks!
- Welcome back, ron and julie, way to go!
[cheers] way to go,
With the fastest time of the day.
One minute, even. - Smoked it, man.
- Congratulations to you all for making it to the next round.
Let's get out of here, and see what we have
In store for you next. [cheers and applause]
Come with me.
- What do they have next for us? I'm a little bit scared.
- Just listening to hear him talk right now,
And he's a little scared,
[laughs] it's just a little bit nerve-wracking.
Because I'm expecting him to pull out a serious "a" game.
- What me and ryan have is, you know,
We communicate really well, and we're best friends,
And I think relationships are more important than anything,
So try and break us.
- This breakup is extremely fresh, so anything that we do
Conjures up all the fights and arguments,
And we're just trying to stay focused on being a team
And not letting the rawness of the breakup
Affect our performance.
- Hello.
Welcome back, everybody, hello. - Thank you.
- Good to see you, good to see you.
- Thank you. - First of all,
How did everybody recover from your near-drowning experience?
- Sore neck. - I was sore.
- Is it bizarre to be working with each other,
Being ex-husband and wife?
- No, that's easy, because we're still in contact every day,
So that's not-- that's not an issue.
- [laughs] - what is this?
- I don't know about-- - he's always calling me.
- He talk-- he's always calling you.
- Don't you lie, either. - All right, well,
You guys are all exes,
But here's something that may just
Bring you all back together.
- Oh, god.
- Here is your next stunt.
- [sighs]
- Inside this tank
Is over 3,000 gallons of cow's blood.
- [gasps]
- Oh, my god.
- No, no.
Inside this tank...
- [exhales]
- Is over 3,000 gallons of cow's blood.
- [gasps] what?
- Oh. - [winces]
- I just got chills.
- You and your partner will be bound together by the wrists,
And you will alternate dunking into that tank to retrieve...
These. - [gasps]
- Cow hearts.
- Ew.
[flies buzz]
- Oh, my god.
- One at a time, you will alternate dunking down
Into that tank, retrieving a cow heart,
And then stuffing it into your partner's mouth...
- What? - Who will then
Attempt to spit it into that box.
The team that transfers the least amount of cow hearts
In three minutes will be eliminated today.
- We have randomly selected today's order, and c.C. And joe,
You guys are lucky number one. - Number one.
- [laughing] oh, god. - From broken hearts
To cow hearts. [laughter]
- Well, that heart's certainly bigger than mine.
[laughs] - probably.
- That is a heart, she doesn't have a heart.
- [laughs] - ready to get
The party started? - Let's do it.
- Go get yours. - Good luck, guys.
[applause] - thanks.
- How glad are you guys that they're going first?
- Very happy they're going first.
- This should be easy for her. She's used to chewing hearts
And spitting 'em out. - [laughs]
- All right, joe and c.C., step on up. Let's do it.
Here it comes, folks, it's about to go down.
- Oh, my god. Oh, my god. - Come on, joe, sack up!
- Ohh.
- [breathes out]
- Are you ready?
Step on in.
Oh, my goodness!
- Oh! - Oh, yeah!
- Oh! Oh, my god.
- [shudders] oh.
- [screams]
No. - [burps] oh, god. Gross.
- Hoo. - Oh, my god.
- All right, attach your restraints.
- Oh. - Here we go!
In three...
Two...
One...
Go!
- Ooh! - Oh, my god.
[screams]
Ooh!
- [laughs]
- Oh!
- Get it in there!
Shove it in her mouth!
- [grunts] - she's got it.
One! Yes!
Very nicely done. Now she's under.
She's looking for one, she's got it.
- Oh. - Oh!
- Stuff it in his mouth quickly! Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!
Come on, joe.
No. Fell short.
Story of his life.
- [gasps] oh!
- He'll hear about that one.
All right, here's another one. All right, she's got it.
Two! Two for c.C.
- Where's she going?
- [laughing] she's looking for a heart.
- [gasps]
- She's looking for one.
All right, here she goes.
Stuffs it in his mouth.
He's got it.
Come on, joe. - [spits]
- Yes! That's three!
You guys got three!
Pick up the pace!
Nice!
She is good at spitting. - Yeah, she is.
- I'll tell you that. - Hearts.
Come on, joe! [yells]
- He's gonna fall into that box.
- [exhales sharply] - you guys got five!
Let's go, guys, pick it up!
- [grunts] - nice!
She's getting good at this. That's six!
All right, she's got one.
She's shoving it in his mouth!
- God, you can't see anything.
- Come on, joe!
Seven!
Come on, guys, let's go!
Oh! She dropped it! She dropped it!
Pick it up again! That's gonna cost you!
All that moving around displaces a lot of the cow hearts,
Makes it hard to find 'em. - You got one?
- No! - Ten!
Nine, eight, seven, six,
Five, four,
Three, two...
- [grunts] - one...
Time! - Oh, my god.
- Good job, guys, you got eight hearts.
- Oh, it's in my teeth. - All right,
We're gonna need to shower you guys off.
This is so disgusting.
- It looks likerrie.
- I feel light-headed.
- Welcome back, joe and c.C.
- Whoo! - Oh, my god.
[cheers and applause] - good job.
First of all, what did it taste like?
- Like you bit your tongue.
- Yeah, it's just lingering in my mouth,
It's in my ears, it's up my nose.
I don't wish that on my worst enemy.
- Really? - Right now on these guys, yes.
- Well, you got eight, but, joe,
There is that one that you missed,
That I hope does not come back to haunt you.
- I couldn't see.
- You can't see. - Oh, I'd imagine.
- You cannot see. - It's a crap shot.
- I don't know how she was doing so well,
- I mean, I-- - she's a good spitter.
- Spitter, that's right. [laughs]
- Yeah, I've had her-- - [laughing] amen to that.
[imitates evil laugh] - [laughs]
- Well, listen, you got eight hearts in the box,
So let's hope that holds up for you guys.
- [claps] let's hope so, man. - Good job.
- Ron and julie, step on up.
- Good luck. - Good job.
- So what's up now, huh?
- I feel like I'm gonna puke right now.
- Really? - He's very squeamish.
- Yeah, I'm totally feeling-- - you're squeamish?
- Oh. - Big badass dude like you,
You're squeamish? - I like to punch,
But I don't like to see the blood come out, you know?
[laughter]
[applause] - julie and ron,
Are you ready to do this? - Yeah!
- Whoo!
- Go get some! - All right!
- Good luck, guys. - Thank you.
- But not so much. [cackles]
- [speaks indistinctly]
- All right, you guys have been there,
How do you think they're gonna do?
- Six. - Jeez.
- What's the matter, c.C.? - Get a little aggressive,
Come on! We're here to win, brother.
- It could just be you.
- Blah, blah, blah.
Tell it to the tourists, we live here.
- All right, shut her up, let's--so we can do this.
- [cackles] - I'm sick of that chick's
Cackling laugh. I want her outta here.
- C.C., you wear the pants.
- [cackles] - [laughs]
- Yeah, but I've taken 'em off a few times.
- All of a sudden I just got queasy.
- C.C. Scares me.
[cackles]
- Oh, god.
Woah! - Ron and julie, step on up.
- [gasps] it's like a crime scene.
- Whoa!
- If you can beat eight hearts in three minutes,
You will move on to the finals
And be that much closer to $50,000.
In three...
Two...
One...
Go!
And he's down.
First heart, he's got it. It's in her mouth.
She steps up... - [grunts]
- Score! That's one. Nicely done.
She's down.
She's got one.
He's got it.
- [grunts]
- Oh, he fell short!
- See, 'cause you can't see it. - Missed one.
- That's right, go down.
- All right, here we go! Go! Go! Go!
- [coughs]
- Nice! Two!
Two of 'em, both from julie.
- Pick up the pace!
- [grunts]
- Three.
Coming up on one minute. Come on, guys,
You can still do it.
- [coughs]
- Four! Nicely done!
Looks like they're having a really hard time seeing.
Made it, five! Very nicely done.
Keep it going, guys!
- I got it. - Okay.
- I got it. - He's got it!
- [coughs]
- Six! Nice!
- You got it? - Come on!
- Yes! Seven! - [bleep]
- Under my right foot!
- You guys gotta pick up the pace!
This one time, joe and c.C.
- Follow my leg. - I got it.
- Get it! Get it! Get it!
- [grunts]
- Eight!
- [bleep] - come on, ron and julie!
Come on, guys, one more!
One more and you're in.
Ooh.
- [grunts] - [laughs]
- Get it in there!
Nice! - [bleep]
- Come on, guys, this is for bragging rights, now.
- [bleep]
- Four, three, two... - Come on, get over there.
One...
Time! Nice, ten!
You guys move on to the next round, congratulations.
- Whoo! [applause]
- [retches]
[fly buzzes]
- I went down the first time, and I couldn't find anything.
[spits] and I was losing my breath,
And I started panicking,
And I started, like, feeling like I was gonna puke.
- Look, you guys did an excellent job.
- Nice. - You're in the finals,
Congratulations. - Whoo!
[applause] - good job, guys.
- And who knows, maybe a reunion.
- Until we get into the car. - All right, jillian and ryan,
You must be c.C. And joe's count of eight cow hearts.
- I'm actually kind of nervous, I have a cracked tooth,
And I'm not gonna push it and break it,
It's not worth losing a tooth.
- So if you feel like your tooth is going,
You're just gonna quit. - What can you do?
- We got this, though. - Really?
I'll be very gentle. - Get in there, make it happen.
[applause] - whoo!
- Good luck to you. - Oh.
- Come on! - What you think about her
Talk about a chipped tooth, and--
- Uh, that might come into play.
Those cow hearts are sinewy and nasty.
- Ryan and jillian, step on up to the tank.
- I'm so short.
- Just do it. [breathes hard]
- I don't remember being that thin anymore.
- All right, ryan and jillian, this is it,
In three...
Two...One...
Go!
And he's under. - Oh.
And he's got one.
She's got it in her mouth.
Oh! The first one's short.
She's got it. It's in his mouth.
- [grunts]
- Boom! That's one. Nice!
- [laughs] nasty.
- 30 seconds in!
One, two--oh! - It's off the rim, we got two.
Two in!
You've got to beat eight to move on.
- [grunts]
- Three! We got three.
Oh. He's gonna get that blood in his eyes, for sure.
That might hurt him. All right, she's got it.
- [grunts] - ow!
- Missed it. - I didn't know,
I can't see a thing.
- You got three in, come on, guys, pick it up!
All right, he's got it.
- [grunts]
- Nice! That's four.
A minute, thirty. You guys are halfway there.
Let's go, pick it up!
- All right, she's got it.
- [grunts] - there you go.
- Oh, no! Three misses, this is devastating!
- I can't reach, babe, I'm too short.
- Halfway there, you guys. - Right here, right here.
All right, he's got one.
- [grunts]
- Good! - Good.
- That's five! Four more, and you're in!
- Here. - Go.
- [whimpers] - good.
- Six!
- We need to speed up. - [grunts]
- Seven! Two more!
30 seconds left. Come on guys, let's go!
It's gonna be close.
- [indistinct]
- This one ties joe and c.C.! - [grunts]
- Oh, god! - [laughs]
- One more! One more, and you got it!
- Oh, my god, this is to the wire. Oh!
- This is it, guys, this is the last one!
- Here, right here. Go, go, go, go.
- Oh. - Ten seconds left!
- Go, go! - Nine...Eight...Seven...
Six... - You got this, you got this.
- Five...Four...
- I just touched it. It's your turn, baby.
- Three...Two... - [grunts]
One...
Congratulations, ryan and jillian!
You guys have moved on to the finals!
[claps] - [screams]
- And you are that much closer to $50,000!
Joe and c.C., I hope you guys have had a good time.
- Yes. - It was very nice
Meeting you both - all right, dude, ciao.
- Take care. - Joe.
- Good-bye, guys. - Very nice to meet you.
- It was the ninth heart that didn't make it into the box
That caused us to lose.
- But to see c.C. So upset is very upsetting.
I wish I could do something for her,
But we gave it our best, and I gotta be satisfied
And live with it.
- [bleep] number nine that never made the barrel.
- Don't--knock it off, you know what? We made it here.
- Oh, my god. - Congratulations.
You still look great. - [screams] I can't believe it!
- You are now in the finals, the four of you...
- [screams] - will be competing,
Two teams for $50,000 and the title of fear factor champion.
- Yeah! [screaming]
- Let's get out of here and see what we have
In store for you in the final stunt.
Come with me, guys.
- Yes, we're gonna get you showered. Come on.
- The baggage we have between us is a motivating factor,
Because there's so much pride involved.
So even though we may go in with animosity toward each other,
And possibly wanting to poke each other's eyes out,
Losing isn't an option.
- It seems like everybody else is fighting, and me and ryan
Are actually closer than ever. [laughs]
I think we're gonna win, and we're gonna look good doing it.
- What's up, what's up? - What's up, joe?
[applause] - welcome, welcome!
This is it, folks, we are down to two--sorta couples,
Former couples, [laughter]
Current couples, kinda?
- I think they're e perfect couple, I'm gonna be honest.
- Really? - I think that if I've ever seen
A more perfect couple, it's them.
- Are you ready to see your final stunt?
- Yeah! Let's do it. - Yay!
- Bring it. - Here it is.
You and your partner will start out inside that bus.
On "go," you will make your way up onto the roof,
Where you will then grab a hold of the lines
Dangling beneath that helicopter.
The helicopter will fly you over the lake,
Dropping you into a speedboat. - [laughs]
- Once you hit the speedboat, you must then grab a set of keys
And swim over to the cargo net
That's dangling beneath that helicopter.
Once on the net, you will climb up
And use your keys to unlock a backpack,
Which has flares inside of it.
You will then light those flares,
And toss them onto that fueling station,
Blowing the whole thing sky-high.
- Oh, my god! - What?
- Whoo-hoo! [laughter]
- The team that does this the fastest today will win $50,000
And become fear factor champions.
- [claps] - what?
- Oh, my god! Awesome.
- Now we have randomly selected today's order,
And ryan and jillian, you guys are lucky number one.
- Oh, my god! [laughing] yeah!
- Way to go, kids. - You ready to do this?
- Yeah. - Let's blow some [bleep] up.
- Don't play with fire. - Come with me, kids.
Let's do it, come on. Come with me.
- [claps] good luck. - [laughs]
- I don't even know what he just said.
- You're gonna have to carry me on this one.
- I mean I'm [bleep] square nickels right now
Thinking about it, but I want to do it.
- All right, kids, this is it.
A lot of people underestimated you guys
On the first day, right? You guys looked
A little too friendly, a little too sweet.
- Well, we are friendly. - Yeah.
- Yeah, but when it comes down to it, you're fierce, right?
- We'll win. [growls] - this is true.
- Time starts when the horn blows.
Time stops when you blow up that fueling station.
- All right. - Do it faster
Than teeasy rider, and team twilight wins $50,000.
- Yay! - That's--we're--okay.
- Thanks, joe. - Good luck to both of you.
Good luck.
- [laughs]
- All right, team twilight is ready to rock and roll.
- All right. - You guys are team easy rider.
I don't know if you know that. - Nice.
- [laughs] - you like that?
- [laughs] - I'm down with that.
- It works, right?
And they are ready to rock and roll.
[bus horn blares] - all right, here we go,
They're off.
They're each racing to their ladders,
They're climbing up top.
[helicopter noise]
- Oh! - Oh, my god.
- All right, they climbed into the bus,
The helicopter has started up,
They are ready to rock and roll.
[bus horn blares] all right, here we go.
They're off.
They're each racing to their ladders,
They're climbing up top,
- [screams]
- [speaks distinctly] - [gasps]
- Now they gotta grab hold of the lines
Being dropped by the helicopter.
He's got his, he passes to her, they both have 'em.
Now the helicopter's gonna pull them away.
- [screams]
- Grab my hand! - I can't!
- They're trying to reach each other,
So they don't swing around. - Oh, my god.
- Oh...My...God.
- Here they come! - Oh, my god!
[helicopter strafes] - whoo!
- Oh, god.
- All right, here we go, folks, here we go.
- Oh, my god.
- Now the helicopter's gonna drop them
Into the back of that speedboat. Here we go.
- Wow!
- Ah, look at 'em swinging all over the place.
- Oh, my god.
- All right, they're approaching the boat.
Once they get inside, they gotta grab the key ring...
- [screams] - and get ready
To jump off the boat. - Whoo!
- All right, they're in.
They're grabbing their keys.
- He's got his key,
And she's got hers.
All right, now they have to jump off and climb up the cargo net.
- Man, I'm gonna throw up. This is [bleep] scary.
- You're doing-- you're good.
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
- Here they go!
Oh! They jumped off way early.
Now they got a lot of swimming to do.
They jumped early.
That was a big, big, big mistake.
The rotor wash, too, makes it so difficult to swim into it.
- Oh, she can't get there.
- She's back-kicking.
- He's a strong swimmer, but she's doomed.
She's slowly closing in on the net,
But this is costing a lot of time.
- Sink!
- She still hasn't gotten close to him.
- Oh, he's going back to help her.
All right, now they're up.
- [screams] - oh, he's not on the net good,
Look, he's just hanging there.
He's tiring his arms out to pull himself up,
He didn't get on the net well.
- This is crazy!
- They're both exhausted right now.
Now remember, they have to climb the net now,
To get to the backpacks, use the keys, unlock the backpacks,
Get the flares, and then blow up the fuel station.
This is a huge task here, and they are exhausted.
All right, they missed their first attempt,
They're gonna spin around again.
They haven't gotten to the backpacks yet.
There's a tremendous amount of time
That they left here for you guys.
No doubt about it, this is hard, but they made a critical error
In jumping off too soon.
They're close. They're exhausted.
- Oh. - Oh!
- [bleep]
- That was him! He fell off!
- Oh, he fell!
- It's totally up to her now.
She's exhausted.
Look at how slowly she's moving.
She barely has the energy to put the key in the lock.
But they still have a shot.
Only one flare needs to hit the station.
But now the chances are not that good.
All right, she's got the backpack open,
She's gotta grab the flares and drop it.
Hopefully she's in the right position to throw it.
She's throwing it-- oh, she totally missed.
- [laughs]
- There's three more flares in that backpack.
She armed the flare!
She's just so exhausted,
She's having a hard time just hanging on.
- Fall off, already. God, get it over with.
- Here she comes.
- Whoa! Nice!
- 5:46 is the time. - All right.
- You guys beat that, that's all she wrote.
Uh-oh, it looks like they're in trouble.
- I can't breathe.
- One, two, three, up.
- You're going up in that, okay?
[radio chatter]
Okay, we're gonna sit her up right here.
Okay. All right.
- I wasn't able to get any breaths.
- Can you open your eyes?
- She is over at an ambulance getting oxygen,
And he's getting worked on by the medics.
That's how physically taxing this thing is.
They're both literally broken down.
- [laughs] - make you nervous?
- Yes! I was nervous before you said that.
- Doesn't mean that you guys are gonna be that tired,
But you're gonna be tired.
- No, I know, there's no doubt. - It's tough, it's difficult.
- There's no doubt. No, I'm kinda feeling my lunch
Coming up right now, just thinking about that.
- 5 minutes and 46 seconds. Beat that, and it's over.
[hand slaps] - if you guys win this,
Will you get married?
- We were fighting about it. [laughs]
- You were fighting about the wedding?
But you're seriously considering it?
- I am.
- You're seriously considering it?
- Yes. - Are you serious?
- I'm not--yes, I'm serious. - So let's get married.
- You're gonna marry her, dude? - To who?
[laughter]
- Oh, no, you didn't. - I'm just kidding. I'm sorry.
- Maybe if you get married, you won't fight as much.
- The--okay, that's my theory. - That's not--
- That theory sucks. - [laughs]
- That is--oh. - That theory's ridiculous,
And I was just joking.
- [laughs]
- Good luck to ya. - Thanks, joe.
- All right, thank you. - Go get it.
Welcome back, ryan and jillian.
How's everybody doing? - Exhausted.
- You guys had to go see the medics.
You were exhausted. What happened?
What was the most tiring part of it?
- The swimming. - The swimming.
- I felt like I was drowning.
- The climbing was hard for me.
- Do you think that exhausted you to the point
Where you fell off the-- climbing the net later?
- No, I honestly think that-- I don't know what happened,
Because I got to the backpack, and I didn't feel so exhausted,
Like I couldn't do it,
And then all I remember is falling.
I think I seriously might have blacked out or something.
- All right, well your time was 5:46.
If they can't beat that, you guys win,
And it's that simple.
[bus starts]
All right, julie and ron are in the bus,
The helicopter is up overhead,
[bus horn blares]
- Here we go!
- [struggles]
Oh! Oh! Oh, yeah!
- Ah! Ooh!
- Jump up! - Whoo!
- They're reaching for the lines.
- No!
All right, they've got the lines.
- [screams] - okay, they're up!
[screaming]
- Whoo-hoo! - Ahh!
[screaming and yelling]
- All right, now the helicopter's
Gotta catch up with the speeding boat
And drop them in the back, so they can get the keys.
[screaming]
They're dropping 'em in the boat.
They've got the keys.
- Not yet.
- Here they come. They're waiting, trying to get closer.
- Go! Go.
- They're in the water.
They jumped closer than you guys,
But it looks like they're moving slow and steady.
They're conserving energy, that's their strategy.
Much slower than you guys.
All that rotor wash is getting him right in the face.
It's hard to swim into that.
All right, he got to the cargo net first.
She's right behind him.
They're exactly on pace with you at this point.
All right, she's there too.
All right, they're up.
They're climbing the cargo net now.
- That's really fast.
Oh, my god! [screams]
- They way she's doing it,
She's putting a lot of power and pressure in her arms.
By leaning back like that, she's forcing her hands
To do a lot of the work.
They're almost at the backpacks.
They gotta get to the top, get to the backpacks,
Unlock the backpacks, and retrieve the flares
To blow up the fuel station.
This taking their time could come back to haunt them.
This could be very close.
The chopper is heading back for a second pass.
Looks like ron's got his backpack open.
Now he's gotta reach in there, and grab a flare
And blow up that fuel station to stop the clock.
Oh, he's still struggling with the backpack.
Julie's got hers open. She's got a flare.
All right, they've both got flares, that'll help.
The flare is lit. But will he hit the platform?
Remember, it took you guys a couple of tried.
[boom]
- Whoo!
- [screams]
- 4:27. - Oh.
- This is the end of the line for you guys.
It was very nice meeting you, though...
- Thank you. - And you're gonna be on
An awesome show. - Thanks.
- Take care. - [sighs]
- Whoo!
- Ron and julie! - Whoo! Yeah!
- Whoo! - The time to beat was 5:46,
You guys got 4:27! - Whoo!
- Congratulations! - Whoo-hoo!
- You guys escaped from the sinking car,
You got through the vat of blood and the cow hearts.
- Ahh! - You got the best time here,
And you are ofear factor champions!
- Yes! - Congratulations,
- Whoo! - And, definitely,
Fear is not a factor for you guys.
- Yeah! - Whoo!
- Way to go! - Whoo!
- So tired, man. [laughs]
- Yeah. - Whoo!
Oh, my god. Whoo!
