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:
“What strikes many twin researchers now is not how much identical twins are alike, but rather how different they are, given the same genetic makeup....Multiples don’t walk around in lockstep, talking in unison, thinking identical thoughts. The bond for normal twins, whether they are identical or fraternal, is based on how they, as individuals who are keenly aware of the differences between them, learn to relate to one another.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
