risking lives for the sake of charity..

[Ellax]

ok.. i really feel that i should post this to ask this.. to everyone here.. and i really want to hear how u all feel..

i see that every year.. mediacorp artist.. every charity shows they do.. they all do stunts to attract ppl to donate money..

especially since recent yrs.. mediacorp artist are doing more and more dangerous stunts..

ok.. true.. safety precautions are made.. but.. nothing are 100% safe.. isit really worth it to actually do until like that??

[cg_dude]

dunnoe... but i really wan 2 see if any of da stars drop dead while doing 1 of da "dangerous" stunts... juz a thought though...

[shinichi021]

lol.
but after so many safety precautions are made, even though is not 100% safe, i dont see it as dangerous anymore...
not really that interesting to watch...
so it is well worth it to do for charity, haha

'ot'
i still remember those days where jackie chan do all his own stunts with no safety in his movie, so good to watch ^^
thats wat i call stunts.

yup yup.

for me, i'm evil enough to say 'i wish one can get a serious accident from it.'

[_kaze3chizen]

doing stunts to attract ppl to donate is seriously wrong. ppl donate because they feel for the victims, they want to help the victims and not because of seeing such dangerous stunts and they feel pity for the artistes. the IDEA IS TOTALLY WRONG.
stunts are okay if its only like once for charity show. but what is the point of having stunts year after year..

[Jasmine]

ya.. the idea of charity is wrong already.

[Ellax]

charity is right.. but ppl abuse it.. anything good become comercialise will ended up bad..

[Jasmine]

i've got nothing against doing stunts... but giving out prizes, i've got something to say about that.

[ref]

u must as well use the prize and donate it that people win for donating to charity....

the car and condo, must as well donate to charity lol....

Fear Factor, the NKF special.

Bah... my family didn't really watch it .. after a while it gets boring for them... o.O

[benny]

i guess we got to think from the beneficieries pt of view. if what NKF does (like stunts and prizes) really does generate more money for the needy ... maybe its a necessary evil? i dunno ... depends how u look at it... do the means justify the ends or do the ends justify the means?

[haplo]

actually, the problem is not really with the NKF show but the increasing number of charity shows spreading the pool thin...so in the end, while the means may justify the ends, the returns would be less than satisfactory.

[benny]

yep ... sighz.. i guess u can't avoid the conflict of interest. i mean renci will fight for their share, NKF will do the same... then there's the president star charity.. lol.. like a neverending vicious cycle... but i do understand and emphatise that their underlying motives are good. so i dun actually fault them. its like Game Theory for those versed in economics ....

[cg_dude]

sooo NKF, da real meaning is to get 1 to do dangerous stunts?
NKF... the Next Action Star?
