NEWS: THEME PARK GUESTS LINE UP TO TASTE TEST STOMACH-TURNING SMOOTHIES: WINNING CONCOCTION TO BE FEATURED IN UPCOMING FEAR FACTOR LIVE ATTRACTION.

FORMAT: B-roll package

STORY SUMMARY: Guests at Universal Studios in Orlando get a taste of what's to come this summer. Universal's creative team -- the people who create the theme park's rides and attractions -- put the final touches on the repulsive eating stunt -- one of several over-the-top stunts featured in the new Fear Factor Live attraction, opening this June.

Brave theme park volunteers become official "taste testers" as they gulp down stomach-churning concoctions, which will feature ingredients such as lumpy milk, sauerkraut, Vienna sausage, octopus, oysters, mole crickets, bamboo worms, gefilte fish, clam juice, sardines, and more.

Universal will be on hand to get guests' feedback to determine the most disgusting food combinations -- the more revolting, the better. The final "winning" repulsive smoothie will be drunk everyday by contestants and will be one of the interactive stunts featured in the new Fear Factor Live attraction.

Based upon the award-winning "Fear Factor" show, Fear Factor Live marks the first time a reality television show will be transformed into a theme park experience. Guests will get to test their courage and strength as they perform adrenaline-rush stunts.
