Eating live creepy crawlies pushes your adrenaline to the next level to confront your deepest fear.
Gobbling up live cockroaches, gulping down bug juice, and eating cricket brownies are exactly what participants of Unicorn Wellness Hub’s Fear Factor did on Friday, March 1.

Teams participated in 10 events and navigated their way from picking up live worms with their mouths and eating one or two for extra points to holding a snake, and ultimately eating a live cockroach.

Some showed immense courage and others dashed for the nearest empty container.
