i will look at a painted wall for 48 hours without sleep, food or liquid.

i don't have a clue about what odds this would be. just poker is going badly and i need another source of money. although if i lost it would suck ass.

note this is not a concrete offer just something i would consider doing if the money was right. also obv i have never done any training for this, bar staring at pornos for an hour or two and playing online for about 8 hours max in one session, nor would i do any training.

john kane... this is harder than you could possibly imagine. In normal psych classes, we did some garden variety 'sensory deprivation' experiments, the results of which are crazy. If you force someone to sit still and stare at nothingness, with no sound, no anything, tics appear within a few minutes for most people. They can't stop the tics. It depends on how much movement you would be allowed to make, but if you were required to stay seated in a chair, there's almost no way i think.

in another forum, 2+2er Apathy had a prop bet with Usher and Durr that he could do 1000 pushups in one 24-hour period. He made it to about 630 and quit.

Irieguy has now booked the same bet....I have action against him...

personally, I think it's close to impossible for 99% of the population...

I was locked up in the penitentary with a guy who did 500 every other day... in about a 2 hour period. He did 10 sets of 50 and adjusted the height of his feet off the ground using books. I have a feeling he could probably do this.

apathy did it wrong was the general consensus. did like 400 right away and then rested, killing his arms.

I'd do sets of 10 every ten minutes. That'd be 60 an hour, and after just 10 hours you'd be at 600. From there you can rest a little, maybe do sets of 10 every 15-20 minutes, or do sets of 8 every 15, or whatever. If you get to the last hour with 100 to go, you can will yourself through it, especially if aspirin, painkillers, and proper diet are used. I would bet i could do it for a large sum of cash.

I'll bet you can't roll a 12 with two die in 20 attempts. We can bet $1000 per 20 attempts.

I have taken 4 or 5 people at this one. Only for $20s and $50s per set though.

I'd take this bet, but there is just no way to verify it so I don't see how you could work out the logistics. If you find a solution to the logistics of the bet let me know and I'd be up for it.

This is great and easy. I'm going to have to add this to the repertoire.

God this would be brutal if you're not allowed any breaks for toilet or anything. Staying awake at hour 36 would be deathly hard. Introduce bright lights into the equation, and IMO only SEALs, etc. are a favorite to win the bet.

To those interested in the 1v1 basketball bet...

You should contact them via facebook. Or I can.

I guess we basically just say, me and my friends want to bet a couple grand with each other that a guy we know could beat you 1v1. Would you like to participate?

Btw, i would love some action on this, but am busto. If somebody takes the girl side, i'll buy a piece of your action or something.

As soon as we have a taker on the girl side i guess we can gogogogogo on the contact. Tasha Humphrey would be my first choice, but if you know of any others, feel free to include them.

[/ QUOTE ]

I dunno, pretty sure there are a LOT of guys that didn't go to college for one reason or another playing on the streets of NY or Chicago or whereever that would really own a girl one on one; not to mention one on one is where most of those guys shine and their quickness would just baffle the female.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ship,

from my understanding, we are talking about a guy who describes himself as a good college intramural player. Obv. if we went to rucker park we cuold find some guys to dominate any girl ever, but a couple things make me think that your normal 'good intramural player' would get beaten.

I've played with some elite level girls, and it aint to be laughed at. Some of these girls are rough. I remember reading a column by an ESPN guy who played DII basketball or something, and was now like 30. He 'tried out' for a WNBA team, and got beat the hell up. Interesting article, basically he got bullied in the post a lot. I think the phsyicality can't be understated, bc the offerer described himself as 6'0 and 160, and Tasha for instance is 6'3, built big, and tough. She'd bully him around, basically, not to mention being a far better shooter than most intramural level guys.

Of course, OP could be skip-to-my-lou, but i think this is a very interesting bet, and if it goes down i'm buying a piece of the girl.

[/ QUOTE ]

This seems like a realy interesting bet. To the person who offered the bet, how confident would you feel against Candace Parker or Courtney Paris
