Fear Factor (2001)
S05E14 Best Friends #2
Episode Overview
In this episode, four pairs of best friends took on various challenges as competing teams. For the first stunt, an underwater obstacle course, one member stood on a platform above a pool. They needed to dive in, retrieve a strobe light, navigate through a vertical tube and a horizontal tunnel, and secure the light inside the tunnel. After resurfacing, they would hand the strobe light to their teammate, who would repeat the task. The team that successfully clipped the most strobe lights in the shortest time would win two 2005 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab Laramies, with no one getting eliminated. The second stunt involved a blind leech wall, where one team member was blindfolded while their partner stood on the other side of a glass barrier. The blindfolded contestant had to dip their head into a tank filled with leeches and take a mouthful, with their partner providing verbal instructions.
