I was a movie celebrity. At least for 5 days! And will come into view on TV for 1 hour (NTV7, Friday, 830pm). I was asked to act as a boastful contestant. It was really fun. And I was really smug. I bet you will want me to be out even during the very first stunt. "The cocky guy will be out" I can hear your whisper.

Imagine you are all gear-up to climb Ford Frontier at 80meters soaring over a pond cliff. You were sitting at the driver sit. Release handbrake! The stunt man hollered from the ground. Looking down, I scream, "Done".

Are you ready? Yes I'm ready.

OK here we go. On my count… 3...2...1...go…

You ascend out from the driver sit via the side mirror. The Frontier was hang 50 degree aloft in the air and you are on your way to the top, trying your very best to reach then bend down and go below the number plate and release your very first Fear Factor flag. You then quickly retract yourself and climb to the back of the Frontier.

At 80meters high and the Frontier is 50degree upward, Oh… the back was slippery and you try hard not to fall. You reach the bottom but the key was suspended below the back number plate. You got to advance down. You are about to fall off. Grasp hard on anything possible. Detach the key. Be quick. Time is still running. You got to make yourself qualify for the second stunt.

Ah… come on… the key… ah… Without hesitation, you bend lower and release the key. Got it! Now heed back to the driver sit and start the engine. TIME!!!! Well done Daniel. You are fast. You are damn cocky just now and yet, you are fast.

1 minute 05 second.

I was blindfold. The van accelerated and outdoes lot of vehicles on its way to the stunt location. Today is second stunt. No…it is not about eating rotten cheesecake with additional refresh of worms, maggots and more. No I'm not scares of eating it; I just know that doesn't taste yummy.

I waited until 5PM. My turn was after heavy downpour. This wasn't really fair. But hey, there are never fair games in this world. It is all about perception. Daniel, are you ready? Yes, lets do this.

On my count…3…2…1

I jumped to the car bonnet, reached the windscreen. I open my mouth wide and dash from the bottom to the top of the windscreen getting all the maggots, earth worms and crickets' top-up of mixture of unknown stuffs to my mouth. Quickly run down and heed for the bowl set on top on a weighting machine. 500 grams is all I need. Time! 36 second is all I took to complete the second stunt. Yeakkk… the smell was horrible. It tastes like overnight rotten oat.

I can still sense the taste, the crawling maggots, earth worms and the agitated crickets. All are still moving and shattering in my mouth. Some scratches my lips and tongue. Blood is everywhere. My newly bought tight torn due to the greasy car surface.

Oh Daniel… you are fast, you are crazy. What can I say, the rain make the car wet and yet you make it really fast. You are real dare-devil. Will see you tomorrow for out final stunt ok. See you guys.

The journey to the final was elongated and windy. We zigzag all the way to Genting Highland. There we were put to kill time for 4 hours. Ok, I got to admit that they manage to create the tedium in me. Far at the other end of the highland, 2 modified dirt bike with at least 20 crew members have been waiting for us.

Shamseer Sidhu called out. Guys - are you ready? Take a look over there. That will be your final stunt for this episode. You are going to ride that bike out from 4^th floor and free fall to the ground below you. The farthest you are… you will be the Champion for Fear Factor Malaysia. RM10 000.00 will be yours. One of you is going to go home with RM10 000.00 today.

Khairul, you are the lucky number 1. Let's do this. Daniel you are next.

Daniel, how are you feeling? What is your strategy? You are all gear up. You sure you going to ride out of the building just like this? Aren't you scared of the height?

= silent =

Ok Daniel, here we go… on my count... 3…2…1

I squall out from the building with gear one. Clutch, the bike suddenly dawdling. Shit! This bike has been modified. Tricked, Shit. I readjust the petrol pedal and re-ram the bike. Here goes nothing. 14.02meters.

Oh no… I am short of a few CMs. Oh no… the cocky guy has failed. Whole Malaysia is now cheering. Yeah, he failed. Told you he should and now he is… HAHAHA. He is damn cocky. He deserves to fail. Hope he won't be back in any other show.

Ok… this is the end of Fear Factor Session 1 for me. What's next?

Cheers for everyday.
