Joe Rogan was the perfect Fear Factor host. The JRE podcast host put a new life to the reality TV show. Though the show featured Rogan making the contestant do gross tasks, he was never afraid to pull some of it himself.

In one of the grossest moments on the show, the veteran voice of the UFC motivated a contestant to eat live roaches. Rogan said, “You gotta eat three worms. If you do this, I would eat a cockroach.”

The feared contestant nervously questioned how would these worms feel, to which Rogan referred her to eat the roach, “You tell us what it tastes like.” 

The contestant took motivation from Rogan and her peers and completed the task. Thus, it all came down to Rogan to keep his delegated words.

One contestant even mentioned, “Dude, you have to chew it, too.”

The unfazed Rogan took one roach in hand and stared right through it. Rogan pointed it to the contestant to show it was alive and moving. Then Rogan expressed, “You like that? Say goodbye.”

The next moment, the fearless Rogan put the cockroach in his mouth and started chewing it with absolute confidence. Rogan even showed the gross look of the chewed roach.

A contest praised Rogan for his attitude and said, “Dude, you’re nails, Dude you are the sickest dude I know.”

“Now that’s why I’m the host of the Fear Factor,” Rogan concluded the sequence with a savage comment while the contest applauded him. “You deserve it, you deserve it.”
