ITV's latest reality show, Destination X, has left viewers in shock after a high-stakes glass walkway challenge was revealed to be nothing more than an elaborate illusion. Contestants were led to believe they were stepping onto a fragile glass platform suspended high above the ground—only to discover it was all a trick.
The Big Reveal
In a dramatic twist, participants were told mid-challenge that the terrifying glass panels beneath their feet were, in fact, solid all along. The show's producers had orchestrated the deception to heighten tension, but fans were quick to cry foul.
Viewer Backlash
Many took to social media to express their disbelief, with some calling the stunt a 'total scam'. One angry viewer tweeted: 'If the challenges aren’t real, what’s the point of the show?' Others accused ITV of manipulating emotions for ratings.
How It Works
The premise of Destination X involves contestants being flown to an unknown location where they must complete extreme challenges for cash prizes. The glass walkway was meant to test their nerve—except there was no real danger involved.
ITV's Response
While the network has yet to issue an official statement, insiders suggest the fake challenge was always part of the plan. Whether viewers will continue tuning in after this revelation remains to be seen.
