Adrenaline Junkie
Jack Osbourne is back for adrenaline filled
adventures on ITV1, but this time he is joined by the rest of his
family. Jack is joined by sister Kelly and parents Sharon and Ozzy
as the Osbournes take part in a family adventure Adrenaline Junkie
style.
Jack is joined by his parents in Las Vegas and he is aware of the
challenges they all face. “My parents are out here and they’re both
really old….but I’m looking forward to trying to get them stuck in.”
Unfortunately Ozzy came down with the flu but Sharon had a plan. She
called daughter Kelly and got her to fly from New York to take part
in the first event – rock crawling.
After Jack and Sharon also have a try, they test their skills out on
a course which involves driving over twenty or so steep tricky
rocks, round bollards and through a series of mini crevasses all
without rolling the vehicle. Each Osbourne will be timed and the
fastest one round the course wins.
Jack organises an adrenaline
fuelled adventure in the desert. The Osbournes board a specially
converted plane to experience zero gravity. A converted 747
passenger jet, the plane has had most of its seats ripped out and
has reinforced wings. It will climb to 34,000 feet to begin
manoeuvres.
At 34,000 feet the pilot tips the
nose of the plane over and the passengers experience what it feels
like to be weightless. Sharon described it as “like being an angel”.
While floating, Ozzy said “I’ve been high before but not like this!”
After coming back down to earth with a bump the Osbournes all agree
it was a brilliant experience.
The Osbournes then head off to Patagonia, the Southern most tip of
Argentina, where the family are going to try dog sledding.
Adrenaline Junkie is shown on
Sunday, November 22.
