Fear Factor (2001)
S03E07 Burning Building; Scorpion Pit; Rotating Climbing Wall
Episode Overview
In the first stunt, competitors must ascend a ladder to the fourth floor of a firefighter training tower. Inside, they’ll navigate through smoke to locate a flaming room with temperatures soaring over 2,000 degrees. Their task is to extinguish the fire using a hose, find a rescue dummy amidst the chaos, and bring it back outside in a basket. The two fastest contestants, one man and one woman, will move on, while the others will face elimination. For the second stunt, contestants lie in a pit filled with over 3,000 scorpions for 3 minutes and 30 seconds. After the initial 30 seconds, they'll use a joystick to operate a robotic claw, transferring scorpions into another pit. The two who manage to move the most within the time limit will reach the finals. In the final stunt, participants must cling to a climbing wall that towers over 8 stories, which continuously rotates, challenging their grip and endurance.
