THE WIPEOUT PLAYSET
It's a giant toy! How to work it? Swing
onto the spinning platform via the Swing Set, then move past the Sweeper
Stops, then slide down Chutes & Splatters to the finish while avoiding
the windmill. We'll play three rounds, and the winners move on to the
Wipeout Zone.
ADVANCING TO THE WIPEOUT ZONE
- Jasmine "Dazed & Confused" Pratt
- Dapper Emanuel Robinson
- Jimmy "The Total Package" Mattingly - $1000 BONUS
THE WIPEOUT ZONE
It's the moment you've been waiting for.
Only one thing stands between our players and $50,000... A BRAND NEW
WIPEOUT ZONE!
- The Towering Flume of Doom: Slide onto
the course on this incredibly high, incredibly steep waterslide.
- The Iron Mazen: get from the yellow side of the maze to the red...
while it's spinning... vertically.
- The Axle of Evil: hold onto the rotating turrets as long as you can
until you make it to the other side and the final obstacle...
- The Great Wall of Fall: the pillars drop. Hopefully you won't.
There's a check in the amount of $50,000
American cash money waiting for the person with the fastest time.
The bottom falls out on the dapper
Emanuel Robinson first. He tries to go out the in-door of the Iron Mazen,
but that won't work. He has too much momentum coming out of the Axle of
Evil. Second time's a charm. Onto the Great Wall of Fall. No toe hold to
be found. He clocks in at 10:42.
Open the trap and let gravity do the rest
for the Total Package, Jimmy Mattingly. Remember, he has $1000. And he
has six minutes going into the Iron Mazen. He's still in it, though. He
had the pace, but he doesn't have the grip for the Axle of Evil... and
"I'm done!" It's over. Jimmy Mattingly leaves with $1000.
... but will Jasmine Pratt leave with
fifty times that? She BARELY makes it past the Iron Mazen. She takes a
tumble... and another... and another. 30 seconds to get to the Great
Wall of Fall. She's NOT going to make it. And the DAPPER GENT EMANUEL
ROBINSON GETS CREAM TO MAKE HIM LOOK GOOD, $50,000!
It's the first Wipeout of the summer, but
not the last. Come back Thursday for more of that good stuff... Until
then, good night... and big balls.
