Who Dares Wins (15/11/1998)

What happens when a former Test Cricketer and a Bollywood actress convince everyday people to do EXTREME STUNTS? Potentially some injuries BUT NOT HERE!
Sweet Jesus, it's Who Dares Wins. The show goes as I described above, basically Mike Whitney goes around and convinces people to partake in extreme stunts, either by offering people on the street mere dollars to act a fool for all the aussie battlers at home, or by having people who've been dobbed in by people they know to go and jump off a bridge or something. Cheap, fun entertainment. Great for reruns too, which is what this show was in until at least 2004. I don't know when they stopped making it, but there you go.

Mike Whitney was a great host for this show. I couldn't bare to watch any reboots, as this was made at such a pure and wholesome time. It just wouldn't be the same.

[@Chemeleon86]

Somehow I don't think the Tv shows or today compare to this legendary, afternoon treat :)

[@planetx1595]

Afternoon? Maybe depending on which state you are in, but here in Melbourne it was shown during the evening.

[@PurplePinkRed]

@@planetx1595 They used to replay them in the afternoons in Melbourne. The only time us kidlets could watch it.

[@BeAGoodDoga]

Wow! Childhood flashback! Mike Whitney was an average cricketer, and annoying Referee on Gladiators... But at least this show gave him something good to do... 7Mate needs to re-run these!

[@FiftyShadesOfDave6603]

I miss this show & especially Mike Whitney, such a charismatic and lovely person.

[@beng1603]

Love it! Amazing how camera technology has changed! So many memories

[@RaveSharrma]

Used to love watching this show on AXN here in India... Can't believe so much time have passed!!! Pure nostalgia

[@Mr101spb]

That lady who managed to talk for 30 seconds straight was seriously the best candidate the show ever had. If they ever bring back the show I hope she features in it again

[@RealDonatus]

Simon B unfortunately she's probably dead :(

[@BeAGoodDoga]

Krstan Lukic Most likely yeah.

[@paulcoffey359]

Everyone in this show should have won an award for having the courage to wear such stupid clothes

[@mickanvonfootscraymarket5520]

A show in the 90s with people wearing clothing styles popular at the time. I'm not if you have seen, but 90s clothing is having a huge revival right now.

[@catherinelin112]

That girl looks awfully like Margot Robbie...

[@virfurre]

Thats Margot Robbie at @7:59
