Published Tuesday, Jan 18 2005, 17:25 GMT | By Daniel Saney
Those who yearn to go through the torments endured by contestants on NBC's Fear Factor will soon be able to do so in a 'theme park experience'.
Fear Factor Live is set to open in the spring at Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood. It is as yet unclear as to what audience members will be subjected to, but suffice to say that the challenges will be modelled on those in the series.
President of Endemol USA, David Goldberg, said: "I've always referred to Fear Factor as an extreme theme park ride. It has become a self-fulfilling prophecy now that Fear Factor Live will be a permanent attraction at two of the world's greatest theme parks."
"The odds are more in your favour for getting into Harvard than being chosen to appear on Fear Factor," added executive producer, Matt Kunitz. "With Fear Factor Live, people will now have the chance to participate in some of the same stunts we've done on the show."
