debbie2.jpgWell, I suppose it was inevitable. Yesterday, a 300 lbs. boulder fell from a cliff and landed on a contestant for the upcoming CBS reality show, “Suburu Primal Quest”, an adventure/racing series set to air in January. The poor guy was killed, making him the unfortunate title bearer of first ever reality casualty. At his family’s request though, the race has resumed, ensuring that if this show ever makes it to air, it will certainly have one of the most awkward seasons ever. Media outlets have been quick to note that the guy was not wearing a helmet at the time; although, I personally don’t see how a helmet can protect against a giant boulder falling from a cliff. For more information, read the AP article here.
