How it feels

This British game show has eight contestants answering general knowledge questions while standing on a stunt tower. Getting a question wrong means being eliminated through a dramatic drop into the water below, and the last one standing wins the prize money.

What happens

101 Ways to Leave a Gameshow is a British game show produced by Initial (a subsidiary of Endemol UK) for the BBC hosted by Steve Jones and Nemone. On each episode, eight contestants compete for a £10,000 prize by picking the correct answers to general knowledge questions, all the while standing on a tower configured for various stunts. Competitors who pick incorrect answers are eliminated from the show in a variety of different ways, usually involving a drop into a large pool of water at the base of the tower. The show made its debut on BBC One on 10 July 2010 and ended on 28 August 2010. An American version hosted by Jeff Sutphen premiered on ABC on 21 June 2011. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
