$2.5 Million Personal Injury Claim for Watching Rat Eating Contestants

In 2005, a man filed a personal injury claim, because of the injury he suffered after watching an episode of "Fear Factor".  During this episode, contestants were challenged with eating rats. He attempted to run from the t.v., but did not get away without injury. The man claimed that he became dizzy and nauseous and ran into a doorway, causing him head injury and pain. The claim was against NBC for a whopping $2.5 million. He ultimately lost his case.
