Assault (Gladiators) - International Differences

International Differences

The American version of this event consisted of five, four in the first half of Season 1, contender safety stations, with a finish line located at the end. A short wall offered protection when contenders were running to the finish line after the finish line was introduced after the first half of Season 1. The British version of this event, renamed Danger Zone, differed in that after the final safety station, of which there were four, the contenders had to crawl through a perspex tunnel with holes in it to tag a lower target in order to collect the bonus point. In addition, the safety stations would explode at ten second intervals, giving the contenders limited time to fire the weapon. If the safety station exploded before the weapon was launched, then no point would be awarded for that station. Assault was also played in Finland under the name Kaupunkisota.

Famous quotes containing the word differences:

    Generally there is no consistent evidence of significant differences in school achievement between children of working and nonworking mothers, but differences that do appear are often related to maternal satisfaction with her chosen role, and the quality of substitute care.
