Fear Factor (2001)
S04E23 Four Stunt Episode #4
Episode Overview
In this episode, the competition heats up with four thrilling stunts, featuring a contestant determined to win back the love of his life by participating. For the first challenge, contestants must crawl out on a pole extending from a helicopter, collecting flags along the way. They need to grab two flags, retrieve a third from the end of the pole, secure it, and then plunge into the water below. The two fastest finishers, one from each gender, will move on, while the others face elimination. Next, in the "Fear Factor fondue party," participants must dive into a pot of foul-smelling cheese fondue to fish out chunks of rotten cheese. Once they collect five pieces, they must eat five enormous horse grasshoppers. The three quickest contestants will progress, leaving the slowest behind. Finally, in the "Eel Hang," contestants are suspended upside down over a tank filled with moray eels, facing yet another test of courage.
