:: New Stunts

I'm taking recommendations to pass on to Criss. What kind? Stunt ideas that we would like to see him perform on MindFreak..

Personally, after Wednesdays show, I'm leaning toward:

A) Have Criss submerge himself up to his neck in a bathtub of water. Let Banachek plug in a hair dryer, cut it on, and toss it to Criss. No rubber suits or insulation of any sort allowed. I'll bet Banachek won't have to go out on a limb to predict this one...

B) In the same vein, Criss should stand in a bucket of water, take the key to that new Viper he won a couple of weeks ago, and plug it into an electrical outlet.

Heck.. you don't need Tesla's coil for either of these - just ten cents worth of plain 'ol electricity.

I really don't wish Criss Angel any harm, just want to see him tackle a few common feats of doom... After all, I've known my share of 'good old boys', and I have yet to see one bite the bullet after:

Being strung up with hooks and carried off by a helicoper. ( Tommy Ray Brown once claimed a cable was hooked to his private parts and he was lifted into a UFO, but we can't find any witnesses..)

Being submerged in a wine barrel, handcuffed, and lifted up into the air by a crane. ( Billy Joe Smith was arrested and put in handcuffs after he commandeered a construction crews crane while drunk on Boones Farm wine.. not the same though.)

Shocked senseless by a Tesla's coil. ( Buford Reid climbed a power pole and got two fingernails knocked off and his eyebrows scorched trying to hook up illegal cable. You probably couldn't convince him there's much difference between Tesla's coil and a Duke Power transformer. I heard yesterday that Bufords looking for one of those chain mail suits..)

Now.. when it comes to setting yourself on fire and getting buried alive, I can't say that I don't know a couple of guys that have experienced that particular fate. ( Robbie Johnson set himself afire twice the last Fourth of July - Once with the roman candles and again with one of those ' sparkling fountains of fire' that Robbie thought had shot it's wad..)

Come to think of it.. Maybe Criss would like to spend a weekend with Robbie, Buford, Billy Joe, and Tommy Ray. Now THAT would make for some interesting "reality TV" .

What are YOUR thoughts?
