"How long can someone withstand being squeezed by a boa constrictor before they have their insides mushed?"
Now THAT would be worth watching. ;)
Actually, there was a TV show on here a while ago on E4 (the channel that's full of crap no one watches) called um... Deathwish Live or something like that. Anyway it consisted of amatuer stunt men facing challenges. One particular guy who is famous for his stunts going wrong claimed he would escape padlocks and chains with a noose around his neck before he was hanged. Training involved being dragged around a car park by his neck (on a skateboard) by his dad with the rope attached to his car. Suffice to say, the stunt went wrong and he was hanged. Cameras went off and we waited a few minutes before they showed the guy being loaded in to an ambulance. That was better than if the stunt had worked... and they knew it lol.
