Episode Recap

Stunt #1: Speedboat to Helicopter Ladder
Heather was first. She was unable to pull herself up onto the ladder and fell into the lake. Heather was eliminated. Kristy was second. She pulled herself up to the second rung, but could not get her feet up. She also fell, and was eliminated. Misty was next. She was able to flip upside-down and hook her feet onto the ladder. She climbed into the helicopter, and advanced to the next round. Thai was first for the men. He moved quickly and pulled himself up in 21 seconds. Alex was next. His time was 23 seconds. Keith was last. His large size slowed him down, and his time was 32 seconds. Keith was eliminated.

Stunt #2: Worm Transfer
Misty was first. She quit while trying to eat the first shot of worms and was eliminated. Since all Alex and Thai had to do was complete the stunt, whoever transferred the most weight would win $1,000. Alex was next. He downed the first shot of worms, and transferred a few mouthfuls before eating the second shot. He transferred 13.24 pounds of worms. Thai was last. He almost threw up on his second shot of worms, but managed to get it down. He moved faster than Alex and transferred 13.6 pounds. Thai won the $1,000.

Stunt #3: Car Thru Building

He admitted to not hitting the gas all the way, and he also hit the barricade inside the building when he was crashing through. Alex was next. He floored the gas the whole way, but he spun on the gravel when starting off. His distance was 24 feet, 1 inch. Thai was the Fear Factor Champion.
