Paul Pearson not Afraid to Go Crazy on 'Wipeooooooooouuuut!!!!!'

By Bruce Carton

The video is Pearson's audition tape to appear on a reality TV show called "Wipeout" (although Reynolds speculates that it may be secretly be a "brilliant bit of viral marketing" for Pearson and his firm). According to this article about Pearson's quest, "'Wipeout' challenges participants from all walks of life to compete on the world's largest obstacle course for a $50,000 prize." Whatever Pearson's true motivation may be, I defy any reader to get past the 30-second mark of his video without laughing. Ten semi-finalists will reportedly be announced on Aug. 9. Good luck, Paul Pearson!
