This was the best show ever! I remember how my sister and I would recreate the obstacle course in our home! We didn't have any slim; however, we did have plenty of crap around the house and construction paper to make flags!
@lerdalparker23 sometimes it was , & I think they should have given them at least 90 seconds instead of 60 seconds, but then on funhouse they got 2 minutes
I just gotta say, I'm upset that there are no DVDs or the fact that I didn't tape some of these shows. Man, I used to watch this and I couldn't wait to see what obstacles were gonna be on the obstacle course. I used to try making some in my backyard as a kid, but they mostly sucked haha
I had this video for a while. There was an unbelievable finish there at the obstacle course on Fancy Footwork with 2 seconds left. Probably the best finish on the course I've ever seen.
At 6:11, I know after that happened, Marc made a point to tell the contestants that they needed to sit on the tricycle and ride it through the brick wall to negotiate the obstacle instead of what that person did.
double dare lives forever. summers was a kick ass host. all i can say about double dare in the great words of capt lou- "often immitated, but never duplicated."
9:00 -9:19 Marc Summers will always be known as the greatest gameshow host ever on Nickelodeon and Double Dare! He will never be fogetten in Nickelodeon.
Yep, slip of the clock costs a car. Actually, that was taped the same day as a team got $1050 with the three-digit scoreboards. You can usually tell episodes are taped together when they have the same obstacle course obstacles, but the starting order is just switched around.
Actually, that time around 3:08 when Marc gets thrown in the lake was a last-second win at the buzzer as well. Kid dived in with 1 second, grabbed the flag, won the car.
same here, i dont think dd would have been as successful if he didnt host the show. he didnt know he had ocd until around 1995 or 1996 way after dd was cancelled.
the finish with time's running out as obstacle 7 and the foot one as 8 was most suspenseful imo...i never saw any of these eps, so a lot of these obstacles are more challenging in relation to the ones used earlier on...
i was thinking the same thing...most of the double dare eps i remember were from 1986 and 87...(i'd never seen the alligator pit, the pool with the boat, or most of the other obstacles shown here..)
See that piece flying off the prop? he broke'd it, but THEY WON!!! YEAAEYEYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
omg. i remember this show! the best show to ever hit television at that time. damn, where do they still show this? or does it even show at all anymore?
@6:01... I disagree with the ruling. He had the flag in his hand before the clock hit zero -- he just didn't pull it off where it was attached. The producers probably deliberately planned for it to (literally) slip through the contestant's fingers.
I wonder if the rules said the flag actually had to be *detached* to count. I would have said "give 'em the car anyway!"
Actually, on that course run, the sixth obstacle "Test Your Strength" malfunctioned so Marc had to tell the team to move on. If you gave back the time lost while that happened, they could have won the car.
I think I only saw it actually work once (which ironically was the episode taped that same day, guessing by the obstacles that they're the same and just in a different order); it usually took long, so I don't think they would have won either way.
It really is. His head drops so quick... It's the only time in the show's 8-year run (or even after that) that I can see any kind of adverse reaction to the slop.
At 6:34-6:38, notice the clock seems to be frozen at 11 seconds for like three seconds before resuming! I always thought there was something weird about that course run when the music ended prematurely.
You're very right. I think whoever was controlling it thought that "Bats In The Belfrey" was Obstacle 8 ... but they were so far into the course that resetting it just wasn't worth it.
It's probably written into the rules. Think about it, they'd have to re-mix all of the slime, re-hide all of the flags, re-set all of the cords, shower the contestants, and then take the time and tape to re-do the entire course. Besides, it's considered unethical to alter the results of a game show, so all official calls from the judges are probably considered final.
correction, everything about nickelodeon sucks now.) (and to be honest, not just the shows, the messages that they r sending r an absolute disgrace, (first jamie lynn spears, and look what happened with chris brown, (the idiot beat up his girlfriend, was nominated 4 2 kids choice awards, and they did NOT take his name off the ballots, which they should've done the moment the story made the news.)

In response to PriceRights comment, that did cost them some time but there were some mistakes on the final obstacle.
The dad for a split second looked at the camera which could have given him a chance to grab the flag again.
Also, he dove through the first part of the final obstacle too far and they could have added another shot at the flag.
Best run has to be Wilbur diving through Fancy Footwork with two seconds remaining.
