Kings of Pain

I know that many complain on these guys overreacting or acting poorly, but that shouldn't be the point here. There is no such thing like a serious research on pain with just 2 subjects being tested. This show is for fun - to see different kinds of animals and the way they can hurt people. Of course that dialogues and setting is somewhat staged, it's always the case, but these guys REALLY get bitten, and for our entertainment. Just look at the episode 8 and how the python messed them up. The fact that somebody else did the similar thing doesn't mean much. It's hard to even think of something nobody did, that could be a good material for a show. These guys deserve respect and I really hope we are getting season 2. I would love to see more and mooooooooore new nightmare creatures doing their job.

I do not usually write reviews but i had to chime in here, there are haters who are saying that it is fake, no it is not !.

You see a python bite them in slow motion and the after effect, no camera trickery there, caveman has a huge heamotoma that needs draining. You see spines snapping and going into their skin, someone said you see an insects bum pressed against the skin and nothing else but the majority of the time you can see the stinger going in.

There are close up shots when the bug / animal stings or bites so of course you are not seeing their face, you can see the redness on their arm after a sting and the monitor lizard was 100% real.

I dknt know why people are hating so bad but this is a great show for all ages anf shows the real dangers out there.

Thank you for doing what NONE of us reviewers would, fingers crossed for season 2

For people saying this is useless, they have no idea what they are talking about. What happens if you live in the areas of these creatures and you get bit, at least you know what to expect and if you need to rush yourself to the hospital. Its like the Scoville scale, people eat these chillies so you know what you are buying.

Also doesn't hurt that its funny watching them get bit.. That Beaded Lizard looked stupid painful, I wont spoil it, but you need to watch it.

This is a fun series that's educational, silly, insanely tense, and even strangely edifying. Definitely ends on a high note. but yeah, I could never recommend this to my family members. There's something really admirable with the way the main actors approach the subject, though. Progress through suffering, and all that.

As for the show being a copy, that Coyote guy (from what I've heard in Youtube comments) plays everything up way more than the guys here do. But you can be the judge of that!

This show delivers on what it promises and it's so fun and cringey (in a good way). The only thing holding it back a bit for me is some of the banter feels fake. They need to just be more real. It's okay that you're not best friends, that will come with the season. Besides that, I am definitely recommending this show and hope it gets more seasons.
