Fear Factor (2001)

Episode Overview

In the first stunt, contestants are handcuffed and sealed inside a transparent body bag before being submerged in a water tank. They must find a key attached to their wrist to unlock one cuff, unzip the bag, swim to the surface, and retrieve a flag. The four fastest to complete this challenge will move on, while the rest will be eliminated. The second stunt involves a head-to-head challenge where contestants are suspended upside-down over a box filled with millipedes, Madagascar hissing cockroaches, and night crawlers. They have 90 seconds to use their mouths to sort the bugs into designated containers. The contestant who sorts the most in each match advances to the finals, while the others are eliminated. For the final stunt, contestants must navigate a spinning cross-shaped wall positioned high above the ground. They need to release a flag to complete the challenge.
