FEAR FACTOR  8:00PM-9:00PM (eastern) 

"Episode No.622 - Military Fear Factor" . 

MILITARY FEAR FACTOR-- "IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT THE MONEY, IT'S ABOUT ALL THAT PRIDE!"-- In this week's episode of "Fear Factor" all four branches of the military (Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines) will compete on the USS Hornet Aircraft Carrier for $50,000. In the first stunt, each team will be launched off the deck of the carrier onto a cargo net hanging under a helicopter. 

After releasing 20 flags from the net they must drop 100 feet into the water below. Then, the teams will have to reach into crates filled with angry boa constrictors to retrieve tools to open more crates containing live leaches, pig insides and rotten fish- that they will have to eat! Finally, in one of the most amazing stunts ever done on "Fear Factor," the teams will be flown to the carrier hanging from a helicopter. 

Then, one team member will have to run and catch up to a speeding truck and collect hand grenades off the top of the vehicle before the truck drives itself off the end of the aircraft carrier! 

New this season, host Joe Rogan will travel all over the country for "Fear Factor Home Invasion" challenging people to "Fear Factor" stunts right in their own homes for the chance to win a $5,000 Capital One credit card. 

This week's home invasion takes us to Louisville, Kentucky.
