TV (and my mind) has reached a new low. I was watching some Road Rules Challenge with my sister last night. So teams of two have to complete this relay within 60 seconds. One person has to run into a white circle, where there are 2 attack dogs on a chain. That person needs to stay there while the other person completes the game.

The other person runs to the dog house and needs to retrieve a bone that is being guarded by another attack dog (also chained). But as soon as he grabs the bone and starts running for the finish line, they release an unchained attack dog that basically mauls the contestant. The people literally carried the dog to the finish line... the dog was hanging by its mouth. Of course, the players had protective suits on.

But I was watching this and laughing my head off. I couldn't believe this was an actual contest... that people were voluntarily entering this challenge... that they were showing this crap on TV... and that I was laughing like a psycho.
