Ima referring to the New MTV show of course,
here is a little background:
love muffin is a comedy show where the host and several friends preform humorous stunts, many in public and video tape them, an example would be the segment called "wee man"
in this segment a little person dressed EXACTLY like an oompaloompa goes skateboarding thought a town and they videotape people reactions from afar. Another would be the one where a guy dresses up in a gorilla suit and goes to the city zoo and stands in front of the gorilla exhibit pointing at the other gorillas and crying. goofy stuff like that, they also do more.."interesting" stuff like dare a guy to dive into a big pile of elephant poop, or get sprayed by a skunk..repididly.
Of course before every show they have a BIG disclaimer stating the usual "Do not EVER try any of the stunts depicted in this show"
and to boot they add a giant skull and crossbones to the bottom.
well guess whey they are getting sued.
Why you ask? well here is the deal..
In one skit the host dresses up in a full body firesuit and all the usual stuntman burn gear, then he hung a bunch of steaks all over him and then laid down on this big piece of chainlink fence positioned over a fire, after a few min the steaks are cooked everybody eats up and that's that..
Well some 13 year old rocket scientist decided to do this as well...accept he decided to just do it in shorts in a T-shirt, of course he got burned and ended up in the hospital.
Well the kids mom is not trying to sue the show because her kid is a doofus.
sorry just had to vent.
BTW here is the "wee man" looks just like the Wonka one don't he?
