Do, dare, win

Can you swim along with sharks, walk out of helicopters, walk on a tightrope or skydive in tandem? `Who Dares Wins' challenges you to do the things you never thought could do before.The team of Mike Whitney will be in five cities in India -- Mumbai, New Delhi, Kolkata, Bangalore and Chennai -- from September 19 to October 6. The entire production unit including David Mason, executive producer and creator, will be travelling to India.``You could find yourselves tapped on the shoulders by none other than ex-cricket star Mike Whitney, host of `Who Dares Wins.' And if you accept the dare, you may end up facing a real tough challenge,'' says Rohit Bhandari, assistant vice president of SET (India), who also oversees the business interests of AXN in India.Aussie action girl, Tania Zaetta, the pretty co-host and dare devil will not be part of the team to India.However, six selected Indians will be given an opportunity of flying on an all-expenses-paid trip to Australia to participate in the `Who Dares Wins' main dares that will be co-hosted by Tania.Mike Whitney will hits the streets of Bangalore on a road show from October 2 to 4 at Mount Carmel College, Megabowl, Planet M, Mars and several streets along the way. He will randomly select and challenge them with dares including -- food juggling dares like smashing eggs on your head, eating dares like eating wasabi's (spicy Japanese chilies) within a stipulated time frame, physical dares like speed skipping and embarrassing dares like men wearing sarees.``As they are not too comfortable with the safety aspects available here, they choose dares with only certain amount of skills involved,'' Bhandari says. Who Dares Wins has recorded ``no injuries'' ever during any show, he adds.Winners will be given prizes from sponsors -- Hero Honda, Samsung, Perfetti, Palmolive Shave Gel and Bharti (Airtel) and also supported by Adidas and The Park Hotels.
