‘BIG BROTHER’ IS BETTER IN THE U.K.
07.16.09This is a clip from the U.K.’s version of “Big Brother.” It’s kind of hard to tell what’s going on without context, but basically the housemates had to pass a metal ring over a twisting electrified bar, and if the ring touched the bar, other housemates got an electric shock (hence the ridiculous suits, I believe).
The video is kind of lame until the two-minute mark, at which point one of the guys just repeatedly touches the ring to the bar, intentionally shocking his housemates over and over again. And I think I speak for everyone when I say: OUTSTANDING. I’d be a much bigger proponent of reality television if more contestants got electrocuted. In fact, I’m putting together a proposal for a show right now called “Electric House.” Or maybe “High Voltage.” Or “Shock Treatment.” Okay, I don’t know what to call it yet, but the bottom line is that people suffer constant electric shocks.

Clearly, he is not there to make friends.
They did this kind of challenge on the Real World/Road Rules show on MTV about a year or so ago. It was so funny watching them shocking the crap out of themselves lol.
