Uruguay Disaster


In 2006 during the filming of a Uruguay Reality TV Show there occurred a disaster that is to-date the most destructive and life-ruining event ever derived from Reality TV.

On a show called “A Challenge to the Heart” which raises funds for local charities (such good intentions never go unpunished) the execution of a difficult stunt left seven dead and others limbless.

Contestants had to manually maneuver a train a set distance down a railroad track when two of the carriages gained speed and plowed the people down. As a superfluously horrifying added detail, it should be mentioned that almost 3,000 children were watching this live at the recording while it happened.
