NBC Couldn’t Swallow Fear Factor’s Donkey Semen Episode, Spits Footage in the Can

"Drink me."

We told you last week about the upcoming episode of Fear Factor in which contestants would be chugging down gallons of donkey semen with a urine chaser for the chance to win a bit of cash and a bunch of public ridicule.

It is with a heavy heart that we inform you today that NBC has pulled the episode after advertisers found the competition’s choice of fluids difficult to swallow.

Donkey semen will not be served on network TV tomorrow night — the “Fear Factor” episode featuring the stunt has been yanked … at least according to a website where NBC posts its media releases.

The controversial episode is entitled, “Hee Haw! Hee Haw!” An NBC media release teased it by saying the contestants will eat “the unimaginable.”

But the NBC website no longer lists that episode as airing tomorrow … and instead lists a repeat of an episode entitled “Snake Bite” — which first aired on January 2.

We also checked two channel guides – one in LA and one in NYC — and both now list the repeat instead of the one with the donkey semen stunt. Additionally, promos for theepisode are no longer posted anywhere on the Internet.

Cash money says that someday this footage will see the light of day. Whether for an anniversary episode, a VH1 special, or maybe even when one of the jackholes who thought it was a good idea to drink donkey DNA for money runs for a shot at the Tennessee State Senate - someday we’ll know exactly how much donkey semen the human stomach can handle.

Until then, please pour one (shot of urine) out for the Fear Factor episode that never made.

Someday we’ll know, y’all…
