Tim Warwood and Adam Gendle front this Dave commission that drops four mates into a location with £1,000, two random props and 72 hours to invent a spectacle no action-sports pro has attempted. Each build is sponsored by Casio G-Shock and must end with a living rider, skier or parkour athlete risking life for bragging rights.
The clock starts in episode one when the team lash a Zorb to a lakeside zip-wire and try to bounce stuntman Gary Connery across water like a human Skipping Stone. Later they force BMX legend Jason Phelan to ride a derelict amusement-park coaster and persuade pro skier Sven Thorgren to shred a dry slope rigged with fire hoops.
No safety net, no second unit: what the quartet cobble together in a barn is what gets tested on camera. The result is twelve episodes of controlled chaos that aired between 8 November and 13 December 2015, leaving Dave with a catalogue of concussions, broken rickshaws and one very soggy Zorb.
