This is entertainment?
And brought to you from the liberal pornographers of the People's Democratic Socialist Republic of California.
Seriously, that woman should get a large monetary apology from the production company. Michael Jackson was paid $ 2.5 million for a recent interview... and the interview was voluntary. Whoever dreamed up the idea should leave court wearing shower shoes and boxers.
And maybe she should learn not to leave town without some kind of equalizer.
I wonder if the alien suit is pepper spray proof?

I saw one a while back where a guy in a sasquatch suit was jumping out of the woods and attacking hikers, I'm amazed the guy didn't get himself shot.

A full blast of fox labs through the eye holes into the suit would probably do just fine. I'd hope the thing wasn't too hard to get off.
Were Fox's attorneys asleep at the wheel?
"So, the premise of this show is to intentionally terrify someone, which by definition means to inflict severe emotional distress upon them? And you hope they have a physicial response, such as passing out or puking in order to boost ratings? Gee, I don't see a problem with that."

Bwahahahahah, I'm dying here. Hey where's his gun? I love it.
That was my first though when I saw the bigfoot commercial. Let bigfoot come a knocking on my sliding glass door. Honey, he's a big one better bring me the 12 gauge to finish him off.

I really think the prank victims on these shows are approached before hand and asked to sign disclaimers/waivers/exculpatory statements that their partcipation is contigent on. Perhaps they are not told the exact nature / extent of the prank...
I can't believe anybody in our litigation-obsessed society would think that they could get away with this without a major lawsuit for long. Especially when all of these things fall under 'delict' tort law, and would bring hefty punitive judgements...

heheehe... love it preacherman, love it.
You guys know I tried to market the Cowblind? Otherwise known as the trojan cow. It's a hollwed out polystyrene Heifer with seating for two, dual firing ports and all the pleasures of home while awaiting the arrival of alien visitors.
Only one problem.
The bull didn't know it was fake.
My product testers were in the hospital for weeks.

Scenerio: DE44mag camping with family sees bigfoot, Sounds of lage automag firing, voice"damnd it's empty" sounds of 45auto firing, voice " Damnd thing jammed, Honey weres your .38?" Wifes voice " Sorry hon, but it's empty." "But he's still moving!" Sound of more shots fired, Oldest daughters voice "Don't worry Dad, I got him with the FNFAL." Then the voices of my two youngest daughters crying, "but we didn't get to shoot!!!!"

LOL @ BlueDuck
I know I'm rehashing an older thread, but I figured this was better than starting a new one..
I was wondering if you guys watched the first "Scare Tactics" episode? The "gag" mentioned on this thread was the first one they showed. They left out the part about her running into the canyon... And BTW, that was no "grey" alien. The guy in that suit musta been over 7 ft tall. Excellent makeup.
I was thinking the whole time "man, I hope nobody on these things carries... There's gonna be a problem at some point".
Sure enough, the very last one... A sister sets up her brother in a "hitchhiker" (who is an actor) scenario where the driver (actor too) is taking them to a party... Short version... they find a severed human head (complete with real flies!!!) in the hitchhiker's bowling bag while he's "relieving himself" on the side of the road. When he gets back in, he sees the flies, and checks his bag, then starts freaking out... He pulls out a big (fake) knife and stabs the driver... The brother (the only one not "in" on it) jumps up from the back seat and starts pounding the hitchhiker in the head quickly and repeatedly He must have hit the guy 15 times at least while everyone else is trying to stop him. I couldn't stop laughing. You could see the effects of the adrenaline shooting through him... He had a "fight or flight" moment, and he was gonna fight! If there had been anything worthy of clubbing a person with, I'm pretty sure that guy would have used it. He even commented at one point prior "man this guy's creepy, I shoulda brought my #%$'in knife"
Anyway, this show either won't be on long, or will be on until some idiot plays a joke on a THR member who blows somebody away...
I'm fairly confident that my friends know better.

I saw that show. I'm amazed that guy didn't do serious damage to the hitchhiker. The other part where they were supposed to be testing a plasma cannon seemed really stupid to me. I really don't think this show will be on long either. It might run for a couple of seasons if they avoid putting people in situations that make folks think they're in danger of being physically harmed.
Most of you guys probably already know this... when your adrenaline is pumping like BOTH those guys' had to be... you don't feel the pain, you just feel that your head is being "moved quickly"
If you look at the part right after the punching stops, the left side of the hitcher's head was extremely red, and you could tell he was mad for a second... I bet he was in a lot of pain the next morning. (that's when it always hit me (pun intended) the worst).spacemanspiff

sheeple..
oh wait, you said RIGHT MIND...my bad.

I'll never understand...
I'll never understand why people think that scaring the bejezus out of another person (let alone someone they LIKE) is funny. I have never enjoyed practical jokes or pranks, even as a kid.
When I teach my basic pistol class, I tell people that when they have a gun in the house, that their family has GOT TO UNDERSTAND that there is no room for "harmless pranks", because they can get someone killed.
Remember the story several months ago about the young Asian girl who was engaged to a gun owner? She and her sister hid in the fiance's closet, planning to jump out and "scare him" when he came home from work.... yeah you can see where this is going.
They scared him, all right. So much so that he shot and killed his fiancee. Tragic, but avoidable. Granted, rule number four applies, he probably should have been more certain of his target before firing, however, if you come home and you are certain that someone is hiding in your closet, dare I say, it's a judgment call.
I just don't get scaring people for fun, especially in a situation where they have no way of knowing it's a prank. It's sadistic and dangerous, IMO.

I've watched 2 episodes of this show.
Out of 8 or so victims I can only think of a couple who would have survived the natural selection process.
1. The guy who punched out the hitchhiker.
2. The dude who ditched his date and ran from the alien.
Everybody else would have gotten eaten.
Personally I find the show interesting, kind of like when you drive past a car wreck. You can't help but look.
Watching this show just shows how dumb most of the people in our society are.
The biggest ninnys? Why do people stand in one place and scream when a maniac with a machete is hacking his way into your cabin? Why do some people feel the need to be polite even after they just witnessed gross medical incompetence resulting in a death?
I'll keep watching just so I can pat myself on the back and say, damn, I'm glad I'm not that lame!

Actually they did show it ... only after the first lady sued they went and re-did the prank on someone else and showed that one.
ya know ... there are parts of California where the serfs can get CCWs ... would have sucked for the alien actor if the "victim" would have been from one of those parts and chose not to tell their liberal buddies they carried (half the people I know don't even know I own a gun, let alone carry)

THR campout.
ROTFL. I needed that, thanks! I'd pay money for a video. I'm guessing ordering instructions would be attached to article and pics in the SWAT, Special Edition of Street Smarts
Ok , now to get the spilled soda off the carpet...

Oh man!!! I was reading this thread at work, and EVERYBODY is staring!!
I was laughing so hard I could barely breathe!!!
One of my co-workers came over and look at the "Skunk with an Alien" pic, I tried to explain it but couldn't speak. He walked away muttering "Freaks, freaks with guns,.... "
He is pro 2nd amend but doesn't post on forums except WWII Online.
I thought I was gonna have a stroke reading about the brother beating the crap out of the actor, Way to go!!
