The Absolute Worst Challenges On Fear Factor

May 2024 ยท 2 minute read

Horses are our friends. They're majestic and somehow okay with us riding them. In fact, most cultures throughout the world have tacitly agreed not to eat horse because horses are straight bros. In episode 12 of Fear Factor's third season, though, this taboo was broken when contestants participated in a stunt simply called "Horse Rectum."

In this challenge, contestants play a game of horseshoes. If you're not familiar with the game, basically there's a little pole in the ground and you toss horseshoes at it. Sort of like darts, the closer you get to the center, the better you do. In this case, though, it determines how much raw horse rectum the contestants must eat, measured in inches. The first contestant, Nicole, must eat 13 inches of digestive system, while the second, Holly, is burdened with 14 inches. Oh, and there are horses all around them, too, which ensures they can't forget just what they're eating.

Perhaps most depressing of all is when Holly is unable to finish her length of horse guts, she's very close to the end of her horrible nightmare, prompting host Joe Rogan to plainly state, "You ate 12 inches for nothing." Ouch. Eating a foot of horse rectum and not even winning anything must be one of the worst feelings ever.
