Wipeout
Manage episode 429037950 series 3006950
The human body is a remarkable machine. It can be trained and shaped to extraordinary measures. The body builder grows the muscular structure to show off the strength of the gods. The gymnast contorts the body into awe-inspiring flexibility. The marathon runner hones themselves into a lean instrument of graceful endurance. And then there is the world of reality television, which zooms in on our imperfections for the sake of entertainment. It is here we see the everyman – the unsculpted lay person – put into the realm of the physical. But when people haven’t gone through the long pains of sculpting their bodies, can they take the sharp, quick pains of these obstacles? Gawk with Mat and Veronique as we celebrate the amateur failings into the inevitable Wipeout!
