Richard Hammond, host of Total Wipeout, finally tries out the big red balls for himself and shows contestants how it’s done. Kind of.

Total Wipeout is one of those shows that operates on the human car crash fascination; though we wince and sometimes look away, we just can’t help but stare at people getting beat up.

I, personally, completely understand that I am nowhere near fit enough to take on that course. However, it is amusing to see people who don’t have that level of self-awareness.

Especially when they fall. A lot.

Now if only we could watch Mr. Sarcastic – Hammond – do the same.
