I can't believe this show!!! How can someone not sit out 48 hours?? They know they are getting out! They get the money if they hold out a mere 48 hours!! Watching that guy cry was just plain disgusting! I had hopes for this show...but I really can't believe it or the people they get!

Just to play devil's advocate for a second here... have you ever been in solitary confinement for 48 hours? Do you have even a clue what it's like?

Knowing I could get out in 48 hours and be $100,000 richer for it? Are you telling me that you would break under those circumstances?? If I was told I had to be there for months...maybe...but 48 hours? Sheesh!

I hear ya. I would have just slept for two days, lol. They can wake me up to question me and feed me, but other than that I would be enjoying a relaxing time in peace and quiet snoozing away.

She belongs to you...You took her life and gave her a new one, a life extraordinary.
That's nice and stupid of you to assume you could sleep for 2 days straight. Solitary sucks. There's a reason it's used as a punishment in prison.
And you must remember, in this show it's will power keeping the person confined. In prison they don't have a choice. So when that big urge to get out overwhelms you, you can just quit. It's suffering through an uncountable number of hours (they do everything they can to make you lose track of time) the pain continues unabated all you have to look forward to is a hope that they don't figure it out.

They must pick high strung, weak people on purpose. If you can't tolerate 48 hours of solitude and inane questioning by impotent interrogators for $70-80k(after taxes) you are a weak human being. disgusting.
shareThey must pick people who are likely to crack. They probably knew Ron was claustrophobic, extemely claustrophobic, so then the detectives still had a chance because otherwise these guys had the money.
I'm not sure on all the rules, but can you fake a confession? Since we knew Beau was playing them really well, I thought Ron might have been too. Like say, I can't take this anymore, and I'm going to tell you where the suitcase is so I can get out of here. Give them a fake location and that will ease your suffering for awhile because if you're a good actor, the interrogators will comfort you in the big questioning room, it will also buy you time from being questioned because they probably won't be doing anything while the detectives are looking and then when the detectives have returned empty-handed you have massively wasted their time.

The male contestants on this show are really wimps. It's very embarrassing to watch.
These two big babies had a good strategy hidding the briefcase and would have won the money easily. If a prisoner can stay in confinement for 10 yrs + why can't these morons stay there for 48 hours and walk away with $100,000?
Exactly!! It doesn't make sense! They KNOW they are getting out in 48 hours...who couldn't be in a cell for that long, knowing they would get out to $100,000? It seems so phoney! I LOVE Amazing Race and had a higher expectation for this show...but give me a break! It can't be real!

I thought that guy was playing them!!! I thought he was going to say it's on the beach! I couldn't believe he spilled his guts! All that hard work!!! The guy with the beard, he was lying about being clausterphobic wasn't he? :)
shareIf they ever got people who were into something like confinement/bondage the police would never get the money. Those people would revel at being stuck, lol.
"They have a grill, it's this grill. Now you have it...it's called America."
agreed. there are similar radio contests where contests sit in a car, for example, and the one who can stay in the longest wins the car - you could grow a garden in this show, it's THAT full of it!
