Today I had lunch with Katie and we talked about old 90’s game shows and a extensive project in which we will seek out all of the game show contestants that used to be on those shoes. What a icebreaker. “I was on Double Dare with my family when I was like 8.” It is really strange to think about the path people go. I found a video and AJ Mclean was a contestant on GUTS. While he was swinging from a wire connected to his crotch, did he ever think that he would be in the Backstreet Boys, sell a gazillion records and struggle with a drug addiction a couple of years later? There could be old contestants from the shows that are in jail or drug addicts.
I also always wondered about the kids who didn’t make it on legends of the hidden temple. What happens to them right after the show? How do they feel? If there was a way to find these people and interview them, I would be all for it. In fact, if you know someone who was on one of these shows, I want to talk to them.
found something fun:
