The Face Plant
Face meets ball; ball rejects face. ''You see a good handful in every
episode. Essentially, all of your momentum is being stopped by your
face. Imagine if you were watching The Three Stooges, but one of them
wasn't in on the joke. Imagine if Soupy Sales were using walls instead
of pies.''
The Split
One male contestant slipped off Ball No. 1 and splatted into an ugly leg
split on No. 2 — before ricocheting back into No. 1 and into the water.''The marrow within my bones curdled when I watched. If you had a
400-pound block of dry ice, maybe that would address the swelling.''
The Flop
Some timid souls belly flop onto Ball No. 1 and slowly slide into the
water. ''It's like throwing spaghetti at the wall and watching it peel
off. One woman spent a good five minutes up there, terrified to move
until she started sliding backward. She got negative Balls. She went
into Big Ball debt.''
