You know how they have you eat disgusting things? Well, let's say you and some other people were competing to see who could eat a bucket of tarantulas the fastest. If you did it in the fastest time, you'd win the grand prize of $1 million dollars! Could you do that? Would you? I'm pretty sure I couldn't. I imagine I'd be pretty sick and have a lot of hospital bills to pay. Worse case scenario, I'd be dead. How about you?

Well seeing I cant even kill a daddylonglegs I dont think ill be getting near a tarantula yet alone trying to eat one. My fear of spiders would make me pass out before i got anywhere near them.

That's the spirit! Although, the money would be a big incentive, especially if it were....five million dollars!

There is no way - one, I don't like spiders to begin with, two, they are big and hairy. A million just doesn't go as far as it used to, so I don't think I like the ROI on that one. Maybe I would get over my fear if it was a billion dollars. And if the bucket was really small. And the tarantulas were really small. Is that too many stipulations? LOL

You'd have to ask the producers of the show!

I would never eat tarantulas. Those things are really big, and I wouldn't even imagine the fur and the legs... it makes me want to just gag thinking about it.... I would definitely not even do it...

I will never enroll for this show, since I find some of the things done on the show utterly revolting. I would rather go hungry and die of starvation. In some countries people actually eat snakes, lizards, etc. but these things are not part of my diet. I simply find this habit too disgusting and revolting. I might throw up just at the site. No amount of money can coax me into this thing.
