So how did it backfire into her face?

Did the sling go in a circle or something?

melon was probably seated too low so the sling "pocket" turned during the forward motion, then on the way back there was nothing to hold it in the sling.

Wow just wow.

The partner, Brook Roberts suggested that the contestant, Claire Champlin should continue on with it it instead of rushing her to the hospital. She claimed that she can't feel her face, can't see straight, and have the worst headache which suggests that she could have an internal head injury. It would be a major lawsuit case if the women die or handicap from the injury because she didn't get immediate medical attention.

wasn't a game show woman, it was her friend/partner in the show that said "you have to continue" which is actually funnier.

That guy is an idiot. There is no way this is faked. How would you even fake something like this? You can see what happens. The watermelon explodes into pink bits. Her head is slammed backwards.

It's pretty clear cut. The obvious and most simple solution is that the slingshot backfired, not some elaborate editing scheme.

He does make some good arguments in his video though.

I still can't imagine what it feels like to get hit in the face with a watermelon that size that fast. Ouch.

QFT...I am not buying this lady was hit dead on with a full watermelon that wasn't modified already or swapped for a water ballon.

Next time your mom's go shopping ask to tag along and pick up a real watermelon while there.

You can see pieces of the watermelon rolling away, when it shows her friend's reaction.

I saw a teaser for The Amazing Race a few nights ago and they showed the first few frames of that gif, but they didn't show the recoil and facial it resulted in. So I will be watching The Amazing Race in order to get more of the story behind all this, and what finally ended up happening.

P.S. Love the thread backfire idea, and the resulting modification!
