I found the following article really really funny... Is that wrong?
Now, let me get this. SciFi channel is taking people, making them piss their pants, filming it, and then putting it on TV? How in Gods name is that legal? I mean seriously? The people involved never signed anything, they were lied to, probably didn't even get a prize, and then scifi channel expects these people to walk away all "Okie dokie, nice joke"?
I personally can not wait to see this show, hosted by that bitch Shannon Dorety (Who left charmed btw) The reason why I cant wait to see it? So that I can see some 57 year old man have a heart attack on air because he thinks that Big Foot is attacking him... Pah-lease.

A new show called "Scare Tactics," scheduled to premiere on the channel in April, is using hidden cameras to film the reactions of unsuspecting witnesses to horror and science-fiction-style scenarios such as haunted houses and alien abductions.
The trouble is, one of the witnesses contends she suffered real-life trauma from her experience and says she was hospitalized several times as a result of a prank involving an "extraterrestrial murderer."
