Unreal. Fear Factor being sued.
Entertainment - Reuters TV


NBC's 'Fear Factor' Sued for Rat-Eating Episode

Wed Jan 5, 4:03 PM ET Entertainment - Reuters TV



LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Watching contestants eat dead rats on NBC's gross-out stunt show "Fear Factor" so disgusted a Cleveland man that he has sued NBC for $2.5 million, saying he could not stomach what he saw.



In a handwritten four-page lawsuit filed in federal court in Cleveland on Tuesday, paralegal Austin Aitken said, "To have the individuals on the show eat (yes) and drink dead rats was crazy and from a viewer's point of view made me throw-up as well an another in the house at the same time."


His suit added, "NBC is sending the wrong message to its TV watchers that cash can make or have people do just about anything beyond reasoning (sic) and in most cases against their will."


He said the show caused his blood pressure to rise so high that he became dizzy and light-headed, and when he ran away to his room, he bumped his head into the doorway.


In a brief telephone interview with Reuters, Aitken said, "I am not at liberty to discuss the complaint unless it is a paid-interview situation."


A spokesman for "Fear Factor" said the show would have no comment until it sees a copy of the complaint. The spokesman said the program did feature an rat-eating scene in New York's Times Square on Nov. 8.


Over the years, contestants on the program have eaten some weird things, including ground-up spiders and live worms.

Idiots like this make me pissed off.

This could be a new show. Called "Watching Fear Factor," it would award prizes to people who can watch other people do disgusting things without getting dizzy and throwing up.

Im guessing that he didnt hire an attorney since the lawsuit was handwritten. That would be one shitty lawyer if he did.

Amazing how people who can't change the channel to avoid dead rats are somehow more ignorant than people who couldn't change the channel to miss a tittie show....

What a loser, change the channel you lazy POS. Everyone wants the easy money. Frivolous lawsuits in this country are a joke, something needs to be done about it. Maybe I should sue him because I think his lawsuit makes me want to puke and I'm feeling rather dizzy right now.

They should be sued for the fact that the show sucks gigatic sweaty balls, as does all "reality" TV.
