I’m not sure if it was just because I felt invincible watching the show when I was younger, but watching as an adult makes me realize that’s one game show I would under no circumstances want to be a part of.
All that aside, the banter between hosts and contestants is one of the things I’ve really enjoyed about the revitalized Wipeout.
If someone extended me an invitation to compete, chances are I’d go wide-eyed and drive off just like John Cena did in that clip!
There’s definitely a cheeseball element to some of the show’s comedy, but it definitely helps lighten things up when someone gets the absolute lights punched out of them (or worse) whilst running an obstacle course.
