6 Episodes 2007 - 2007
Episode 1
21 mins
From a face-wash of pepper spray to 50,000 volts from a TASER X26, Stock - the scientific guinea pig - runs the gamut of all the newest "less lethal" law enforcement weapons. Testing all the latest crime fighting technology, Stock is shot, sprayed and zapped under the watchful eye of Walker and an expert police team. Resulting in 10 contusions, three lesions and use of a cane for several days, the efficacy of each less-lethal tactic is evaluated as an effective means to subdue a criminal suspect.
Episode 2
21 mins
Fire ants, killer bees and a host of snakes fill out the ensemble cast in this real-life nightmare! In an attempt to show how to overcome our instinctual fear of these creepy creatures, Stock is bitten, stung and constricted by nine different species of vicious vermin. Withstanding 39 puncture wounds and venom reactions lasting for nearly a full day, what will Stock's experiments reveal about our interactions with creepy crawly things?
Episode 3
21 mins
An object in motion tends to stay in motion... unless you put something in its way. Whether it's taking a left hook from a 115kg heavyweight boxer's fist, a 140kg CFL linebacker's broadside or a car crash at 70kph, Stock gets some "target practice" experiencing sudden impact firsthand.
Episode 4
21 mins
Gravity keeps us grounded, but in this episode, Stock turns the most basic law of nature on its head strapping in for a few midway rides, in a centrifuge and screaming through the clouds in a Snowbirds jet - upside down, backwards and at over 750kph! This human guinea pig will grey-out, blackout - and maybe even freak out - as he experiences G-force!
Episode 5
21 mins
From a summer breeze to the gales of a hurricane, Stock takes on nature's most unpredictable force. In this episode, Stock gets caught in an updraft, blasted in a sandstorm and trapped in a wind tunnel simulating the impact of a hurricane. This guinea pig reveals the extraordinary power of wind - even if it means suffering a broken bone and dozens of contusions in the process.
Episode 6
21 mins
They say that the clothes make the man, but in this case, they make the difference between life and death! From medieval armour to modern-day chainmail and liquid polymer shark suits and high-tech fireproof gear, Stock gets dressed for success. In face-offs against battle axes, 135kg shark bites and a flame-thrower, Ryan entrusts his life to various super suits.
