This was a blast from the past. I used to love this show. Some of the challenges were mad. One that stands out in my memory is a guy who said he could identify what Queen song was playing (while wearing sound-proof ear defenders) just by the wavering flame of a candle placed by a speaker.

That was insanely impressive, that is what a super human looks like

[@chuckyaegar7691]

Never realized how camp Mr Kelly was. Still has a place in my heart .

Jerry Moffatt --- Legend.

[@josiewallace7968]

Fair play to the guy, that was epic

[@DesElmes]

If this isn't the most epic YB! challenge of all, then without question it comes extremely close. And a fantastic way to end Matthew Kelly's first series - this episode airing on ITV on Saturday 20 April 1991.

[@ajbp95]

This was mighty impressive! Have climbed one time and your armes get soar so fast. Climbing upside down is just mental!

[@mercuryvapoury]

I'm pretty sure this was one of the only times this particular challenge music was used, and certainly the only one to have ever had a build-up theme. I'm also pretty certain this was the last challenge of that particular series?

[@Rooney21Up]

The music was used few other times as well

[@terrynoble614]

That's what you call hanging around

[@mattowat23]

yep i remember this challenge too, and for the same reason that i was 4 mins! great prog, shud bring it back! oh to be young again! does anyone have any of the brucie youbet to upload on here, cos that'd be ace too. "do u wanna bet on it? u bet! do u wanna get on it? u bet! so dont fret, get set are u ready? oh go home!" brilliant!

This is relevant to our interests.

[@jakamneziak]

I disagree on the show being brought back for one VERY simple reason. Look at gladiators, the krypton factor, only fools and horses to see how shows that have been bought back have been completley butchered. Better to fondly renember the show with its classic status than to taint its memory with a half-assed remake.

[@markwhitfield3658]

I'm from the future and I agree.

[@Camberwell86]

It'd be like having a mid-life crisis at 45 and popping some pills and going raving again thinking it will be the same as the old days lmao

[@fleshgordon6190]

The music when he's climbing is from nightmare on elm Street

[@Shaun.Stephens]

That Chrissy didn't get nearly enough screen time.

[@chrisjoyce87]

Epic challenge for a great show! Does any one know where can get any of the music used in any of the challenges

@deselmes You Bet fans didn't have to wait until next year because Matthew Kelly's second series as host of the show was shown later in the year.

[@chrisjoyce87]

Does anyone have theme to this challenge?

Lol

[@ono446]

You should really delete this, Tom specifically asked people not to do this

[@safe-keeper1042]

@@ono446 he's not here, he can't tell me what to do. In all seriousness, a good compromise since people are gonna do this anyway is try to keep it to one thread.

[@ono446]

@@safe-keeper1042 this isn't a situation for compromise. If you read his newsletter and respect his content then I don't see why you can't respect his only request to his viewers. You sound like a child staying up past their bedtime because their parents aren't home, when all you have to do is respect the wishes of a content creator doing something nice for their fans.

[@Djuntas]

Im really surprised by his strength. I figure that it must be very hard climbing like that tbh.

There is only one thing worse than Matthew Kelly and You Bet - Bruce Forsyth as the presenter. What a pile of crap, who really cares if someone can hang upside down like this guy or drive a brand new, all lights flashing JCB through the eye of a needle (there seemed to be a JCB every other week). But hey, it's only my opinion right?
