Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Challenge 2000
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Challenge 2000 was the second six-team Challenge in the series. The teams traveled via tour bus starting in Las Vegas, Nevada, the moving to the eastern US, ending in Miami, Florida competing in different individual challenges. Each time a team won an individual challenge, they won $10,000. After each mission won, the winning team would invest those 10K in the product of their choice through E-Trade. At the end, the winning team also won any money won in the stock market. The last mission would be for the right to keep the money collected in the pot, an additional cash prize and a car. This season also featured an additional challenge where the two teams had to give up smoking for the duration of filming. If any cast member on either team were caught smoking, their cast would lose the additional challenge.

[edit] Memorable moments
- The first challenge was a bungee jump off the Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas, Nevada. The cast members had the decision to use a short-range bungee cord or use a mid-range bungee cord or use a long-range bungee cord that would purportedly break the world record for the "World Longest Bungee Jump". While David, Yes and Kat all attempted to break the world record, only Kat succeeded in doing so. Her feat, however, was never listed in the Guinness Book of World Records. All the other cast members jumped as well.
- Dan and Holly were in an unofficial relationship throughout filming. Although the two expressed a fond sentiment for each other, they never "hooked up".
- Amaya and Veronica developed a season-long fight that would culminate during a football game where Amaya took down Veronica.
- Los and Piggy were constantly at each others throats throughout the entire season, culminating in a challenge in Key West that would cost their team the individual challenge.
