Sword swallowing regulars Morgue, Murrugun The Mystic, and Brianna Belladonna all prepared extra special stunts. Murrugun decided to do the “Rocket Sword,” a motorized sword that would go down his throat so fast that if he doesn’t bite down fast enough, he risks puncturing the bottom of his stomach.

Would you rather have a spoonful of peanut butter or a bucket full of celery? If that just sound like the world’s worst “would you rather” question, it’s time to think again. Both snacks weigh in at 200 calories, so it’s up just a matter of how far your want those calories to stretch: a long way (such as with celery) or a short way (such as with peanut butter).
