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:
“The country is fed up with children and their problems. For the first time in history, the differences in outlook between people raising children and those who are not are beginning to assume some political significance. This difference is already a part of the conflicts in local school politics. It may spread to other levels of government. Society has less time for the concerns of those who raise the young or try to teach them.”
—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
