Watching now, and IMO looks contrived. "Be careful - it's very good quality" - a reference to the cement, not the show.

Gave it all of 2 1/2 minutes and turned it over.
Just another "our job is so extreme and hardcore" type of show.

I saw the first couple of minutes of it on C7 but I did watch it when it was in the US a few months ago now. It's rubbish with the Aussie presenter. It's a great show though. I love how intense they try and make it.

It's a lot more over dramatic which is what I enjoy in the US.

I like Deadliest Catch too though.

180 000 people die on Indian roads every year.

I enjoyed it and was ****ing myself laughing at the extremes people would go to get past another car

Absolute chaos is the only way you can describe any road in India

Oh that is terrible, we need to help.

Firstly lets send all our speed cameras over there. That will save tousands of lives and make a huge amount of money from all the starving people....oops.

OK we could send over AFFs "road safety experts" as a gift, preferably to an area that does not have internet access......
