Yes you do have to be friend/family of a competitor to be in the audience, I'm sure if G4 brought their own cameramen, all the G4 staff would be counted as friends of the ANC guys, I mean they have 6 competitors from G4, I don't think a cameraman for them is too hard to get in.

I'm sure there's some logistical agreement where G4 can tape anything on site except for course runs, or something to that effect.
Also, I don't think Brett losing his pants was part of the SASUKE programming, was it?

No that was all G4. All a part of the "behind the scenes".

I still think it'd be more likely that G4 would just buy the footage from Kevin's and Olivia's runs. I'd expect it'd be easier to get than getting rights to record their own footage.
And about this Helmet cam thing anyways, is this G4's too or are they going to let someone with a shot at the course do it (Then again I'm sure the ANC people would love to do the first stage over again even if it didn't count)

The Helmet Cam is Kevin's run. Yes, Rider, they are more likely to buy their own employees runs than something else.

Where was it confirmed the Helmet Cam is Kevin's anyways? If it is, I guess that would be the only time I'd ever see what its like to fail the Sextuple Steps.

I strongly doubt they are going to let anyone else on the course outside of the competition itself. I remember the flack they got for letting some stupid actor take a shot at the course in off hours (and the course bit back by eliminating him early).. I doubt they were going to let him do that... But I've been wrong before

So basicly that Sasuke 18 thing wasn't supposed to have him on the course? So basicly the Rope Glider and Great Wall thing Zach Selwyn did wasn't allowed?
And I was thinking they could switch the normal helmets demonstrators wear with a helmet cam, demonstrators usually wear helmets as far as I can tell (except Sasuke 20 stage 3)

Zach didn't compete on the course on Sasuke 18.. that was strictly for the camera and he was never entered to be in the show. Kevin was scheduled to be on the show so IF he taped it ahead of time he broke the rules. Heck not even the All-Stars are allowed to touch the course before "gameday". As for demonstrators.. they do not compete in the actual event as part of the 100.

I think thats the point, he wasn't entered (Wasn't even there the same day as the tournament) and tried (and failed) the course which would be against the rules.

You mean Zach? or Kevin? I know Kevin ran it (and he's even numbered) he might have done it during his run (which is not unreasonable). I'd be pissed if they let them break the rules because it's G4. Why not let every other television station do it as well? JET TV comes to mind. I doubt they let him but we will find out next week anyway

I'm still wondering when it was it confirmed Kevin was the Helmet Cam runner?

It was never confirmed. I was the one that said it. Of course, people will take what they want to hear and run with it...
I said that it could be Kevin's run because that might be the only way to see how he did because I don't know if TBS gives out footage that they themselves have not shown.
Never confirmed anything, just speculating...

Well careful what you say or else people will start thinking its fact. Well I just hope whoever is wearing the helmet does good, I don't want to watch what its like seeing the mud under the steps.
