Jackass in the
Circle
June 8
What started as a box of tissues turned
into the party game of the decade, where household items became weapons
in the war for a million dollars. Now the war comes to ... no better way
to say it... Two Jackasses, competing in the ultimate stunts for
charity.
The two: STEVE-O and RYAN DUNN. They're
playing for charity, namely National Down Syndrome Congress for Steve-O,
and Teammates for Kids for Dunn.
Since this is a charity game, the money
won is automatically banked.
LEVEL 1: MAD DOG:
One contestant must hold a ruler with two boxes of breath mints attached, then
using mad-dog-like reflexes, the contestant must empty the boxes. Another
contestant must do likewise.
And as always... "Failure to complete this task
in 60 seconds may result in ELIMINATION."
First attempt.. COMPLETE! (:39, $1000)
LEVEL 2: BOBBLEHEAD:
Using a pedometer strapped to his head, a contestant must count out 125
headbangs.
First attempt (Steve-O)... COMPLETE! (172,
$2500)
LEVEL 3: A BIT DICEY:
One player must balance six dice on a popsicle stick using only their mouths.
The stack must be held for a three-count.
First attempt (Ryan)... FAIL (TIME OUT, TWO lives remaining)
Second attempt (Steve-O)... COMPLETE! (:26, $5000)
LEVEL 4: SPEED ERASER:
Using a pencil's rubber eraser, the contestants have to bounce 13 pencils into
13 glasses.
First attempt (Randall)... COMPLETE! (:10,
$10,000).
LEVEL 5: JUST HANG
ON: The contestant must hang four wire
hangers by their tips on a wire only one millimeter thick.
First attempt (Steve-O)... FAIL (TIME OUT, ONE
life remaining)
FINAL attempt (Steve-O)... COMPLETE! (:08,
$50,000)
LEVEL 6: DEFYING
GRAVITY: Use coordination, concentration,
and ninja-like reflexes in order to keep three party balloons in the air.
Only attempt (Steve-O)... FAIL (DEAD BALLOON AT
:11, GAME OVER). But Steve-O and Ryan will split $50,000 for their charities.
And the second annual Minute to Win It Summer is
just beginning. Stay tuned all summer for new games and even more surprises.
