Kings of Pain

I do not usually write reviews but i had to chime in here, there are haters who are saying that it is fake, no it is not !.

You see a python bite them in slow motion and the after effect, no camera trickery there, caveman has a huge heamotoma that needs draining. You see spines snapping and going into their skin, someone said you see an insects bum pressed against the skin and nothing else but the majority of the time you can see the stinger going in.

There are close up shots when the bug / animal stings or bites so of course you are not seeing their face, you can see the redness on their arm after a sting and the monitor lizard was 100% real.

I dknt know why people are hating so bad but this is a great show for all ages anf shows the real dangers out there.

Thank you for doing what NONE of us reviewers would, fingers crossed for season 2

I know that many complain on these guys overreacting or acting poorly, but that shouldn't be the point here. There is no such thing like a serious research on pain with just 2 subjects being tested. This show is for fun - to see different kinds of animals and the way they can hurt people. Of course that dialogues and setting is somewhat staged, it's always the case, but these guys REALLY get bitten, and for our entertainment. Just look at the episode 8 and how the python messed them up. The fact that somebody else did the similar thing doesn't mean much. It's hard to even think of something nobody did, that could be a good material for a show. These guys deserve respect and I really hope we are getting season 2. I would love to see more and mooooooooore new nightmare creatures doing their job.

This show delivers on what it promises and it's so fun and cringey (in a good way). The only thing holding it back a bit for me is some of the banter feels fake. They need to just be more real. It's okay that you're not best friends, that will come with the season. Besides that, I am definitely recommending this show and hope it gets more seasons.

Maybe it's the sadist in me, but I can't help but enjoy this show. For me, it's the simple curiosity of what these animals can do, and it makes me wonder how much pain the more venomous species could cause - the ones that for obvious reasons cannot be tested. I hope there's a season 3, but they appear to be running out of animals. Maybe try some of the pain-causing plants that are about too? Some are probably worse than the animals. My only gripe, and it's a very minor and silly one.... It's that annoying fake fire they sit around discussing the bites/stings.... Light a real one and stop using a gas powered campfire. I look forward to more shows (hopefully).

Every human being on this planet, feels pain differently. So I don't think you can make a certified pain index, based on 2 people.

Also, I hope they didn't copy this or get the idea for the show from "Coyote" Peterson who already battled this concept on his wildly successful YouTube channel.

Enjoyable show tho...not for the squeamish.
