So i was watching stunt junkies and i noticed that they show the same clip of the person about to do the stunt a bunch of times. They also try to hype the stunts up way to much.

What do you guys think about this show?

Haha "rant". Nice try, that was a comment.


But yeah, they hype shit up WAY too much. This boarder did like a QP transfer with a back flip and made it way complicated when we went about 3 feet up and did 3/4 a back flip and landed side ways.

lame show. the hosts are retarded. they way over-dramatize the stunts. and there is a huge lack of footage, as they play the same shit over and over again. that show is straight up homo.

Yes, I happen to agree. I always sit and watch the show for a half hour. Then at the end i'm like "What the heck?!"
When they hype up the stunts a ton, and they are boring.

that pro they had do the quarter pipe transfer was not even a good pro in fack he was a shitty pro and that was a very dissapointing episode but the longboarder one where he was towed behind the motorcycle was pretty sweet

word. And yeah, they hype up some stuff way way way too much but others are good like when the guy parachuted into this cage in the ocean with sharks all around or the bob burnquist episode where he base jumped into the grand canyon. other than that a lot of them are retarded.

I like the stunts they do but  I hate with a passion the two guys who commentate everything.  They have no clue what they are talking about they just have an image.  and that makes people who actually do cool shit look less cool.

yea a rant is when you start on topic, and gradually you end up talking about how you hate mormons, to how you hate that grizzlies could kick your ass

The commentators are pansys, and alot of the stunts seem dumb, like parachuting(or whatever it was) into a cage surrounded by sharks? Give me a break, the super bungee jumping and then parachuting down episode was aight.

I dont mind the show because you can just watch the last 2-3minutes of it and get the entire show from that. Alot of the stunts are sick. But there was one where a snowboarder grinded a 90ft BOX. It was on fire, but still. I mean they were like "This stunt is extreamly dangerous, if he falls the wrong way he could die!". it was like 3 ft off the ground.

I agree, that show looks so sick

I saw a commercial where one guy was laying on his stomach and one of his feet was still upright, it was crazy

So basically all the episodes suck, like they make it seem so amazing then at the end of the episode you realize you wasted half an hour of your life.

and yeah, scars seems as though it will be disgusting but oh so amazing. April 10 at 9:30 ET hahah i cant wait for it
