I don't like reality shows, but the stunts they were doing were making me nervous just watching them!! |

I think the guy was pretty stupid. Could he not realize that it either A) wasn't going to happen or B) its been tested and nothing bad is really going to happen. Come on, Richard Branson is not going to jeopardize his life like that. It was a shoe in, as soon as he said he'd go over in place of anyone who backs down, I'd have just laughed and said if you're going I'm going, because it's all good then. |

Richard Branson is a nutbar. He was the first to try to fly around the world non-stop in a hot air balloon. He's a skydiver and he put his life at risk by climbing that balloon, too! He does all of those dangerous stunts, too! (I thought someone might get choked when the fell 360 feet on the bungee cord) They're all crazy! I didn't like the girl that they kept, though. She was a real mouthpiece! |

| yeah I knew they weren't gonna go over the falls. 9 g's is the limit before people black out if the force is from the front. There's no telling on what angle they'd hit, and they'd die so quick if they came down on anything but the perfect angle. |

i like this show a lot.
i liked the first episode too because he got rid of the first people that made a bad impression on him while he was the taxi driver.
and as if that girl doesn't know no one likes her? when she came back on the plane it was total silence. |

He's a nut bar, but they're calculated risks. The man's a billionaire and in charge of Virgin, he didn't make this show to kill himself. As soon as he said he was going over, I would have guessed it was a hoax. |

does the entire show just consist of stunts? becuase im under the impression this is for HIS JOB. which means business. whats that got to do with stunts?
i realize he did stunts on his own time, for exposure. but i would hardly think thats a worthy interview.

no they do business related stuff two. in the second episode they had to create something for a new small airline, like a gift bag or something and the better product overall won. |
