Keep your wits about you and your imagination in check

I loved watching TOTAL BLACKOUT because it's funny to see the contestants weirded out.

I understood the obvious. Jaleel White the host, tells you right off, "Your imagination can be your greatest enemy".

People who've watched this series now should be much better prepared if they become contestants. Understand that the show's producers can't actually HURT the contestants. If the late Saddam Hussein was running this show in Iraq ten years ago then there would be very good cause to be scared because you know you would get hurt. In this case you know for sure that all you're going to touch, smell and taste is odd or strange stuff. But nothing will actually hurt you.

In fact the most dangerous thing I can discern is that falling through the trapdoors could be risky even if falling on the softest of cushions because a bad fall or twist could still sprain or hurt something in your body.

P.S. During the couples competition, I was rooting for the two, pretty Asian twin girls. Not just that they were pretty and way ordinary valley type girls, I actually thought they finished over the two guys with slightly better time.
