    Inspired by the "what would you do for a klondike bar" commericial I just saw on television.

    No,I don't own a Fortress maximus toy,nor am I giving one away in this thread.

    I figured a fortress maximus is the ultimate free prize a TF fan can get for doing something.

    guys the fortress maximus toy is only FREE if you do one of the challenges.

    please vote in the poll & post your response in this thread.

    guys this thread is meant to be funny & make fun of the klondike commericial.
    please select the one option from the 13 listed that seems like the least dangerous or least amount of effort that you'd be willing to do & complete.

    guys,it's only free if you do one of the 13 challeges.

    I put my vote in for "the getting into a shark cage,having it submerged into water & sharks smashing into the cage" option. because it seems like a bunch of professionals would make sure the cage is locked & monitored while under water. also it seems like a short ordeal compared to some of the other options.

    Weird poll is weird...and awesome.

    I voted for the staying awake with the camera one because I'm an insomniac anyway. And the cameras I wouldn't really care about as it's very easy for me to zone out and ignore my surroundings if I want to.

    So go ahead and set that up and I'll take my free Fort Max :p

    I picked the first one. I'll hop on one foot for five miles, no problem.

    Of course, I'll be hopping on one foot inside a bus that's going 65 mph...for a length of five miles. :)

    To tell you the truth I probably would do any of them to get a FREE Fort Max except
    maybe play with no armor against a pro football team,I like my body parts the way they
    are.As for the one I picked I chose the roller coaster one,as I have no problems riding
    coasters,and the scarier the better.

    This poll options are pretty funny but I'd take the essay lol. Much easyer and not much pain other then writing craps.

    . . . .which is the point process was making. It's not free if you're having to do something (cost). :thumb 

    I think the intent with the premise is certainly entertaining, though. I think I can honestly say that had I not had my FM from my childhood collection, I may have very well not decided to be into TFs after moving on as a kid. I think I would have initially found the task of getting one a bit too daunting at the time.

    I'll write the essay :)

    Nothing. I already have one.

    And even if I wanted another one, I wouldn't do anything on the list for it. We're not talking about winning the lottery here, just getting a toy worth £1000 at most on a good day.
    Even if you sell it on it's not equal in value to anything on that poll.

    Although kudos for thinking up a list like that!

    I'd get in a race car with Betty White for free, so if they threw in a Fortress Maximus toy, it'd just be icing on the cake.

    Sod all, as I don't like Fortress Maximus.

    However, if it was for a Perfect Effect Rumble and Frenzy, I would do the rollercoaster thing. Loads of rides and two free toys = one awesome summer!
