00:00This was one of the first TV shows ever, and it was pure evil.

00:03During the late 1890s, a man named Dan D. Lyons created and hosted a TV show

00:08where contestants would spin a massive wheel covered with the names of wild animals.

00:13Whichever animal the wheel landed on, that's what you'd be locked in a box with for 24 hours.

00:17If you survived, you'd win $1 million.

00:20But here's the thing, nobody ever won.

00:22The animals ranged from lions, to tigers, to bears.

00:25And before every competition, they were always left hungry.

00:28The show's darkest secret?

00:29The contestants were told the animals weren't real, just actors in costumes.

00:33That lie made them feel safe enough to sign up, but nothing about the show was fake.

00:37At the start of every episode, a message flashed on screen.

00:40All events in this show are fictional, but it wasn't.

00:43It was horrifyingly real.

00:44In 1899, a man named Moe de Grasse became the first and only person to survive the 24-hour challenge.

00:51Trapped in a cage with a starving grizzly bear, Dan D. Lyons was furious.

00:55He didn't want to pay Moe the prize money.

00:56So, he offered him a double or nothing challenge.

00:59Moe refused, enraged that he'd been lied to and nearly killed.

01:03As Moe confronted Dan, shouting that he would expose the show to the public, Dan lunged at him in anger.

01:08But he missed, and fell 15 feet into the box with the grizzly bear.

01:11This time, the bear wasn't as friendly.
