A contestant having successfully landed on the velcro board
Velcro fly writing

The contestant wears a suit with Velcro on the front, and starts on a platform at the side of a pool. On the other side of the pool is a big board covered in fuzzy material. 

Using a trapeze on a long rope, the contestant has to swing over the lake, let go of the rope, and try to stick themselves onto the board. 

If the contestant manages to stick on the wall, and stay there, they have won and move onto the next game. But, if they don't stick, or don't even reach the wall, they'll fall into the water and lose the game. As extra humiliation for losing, in most games the guard by the wall (usually Animal) will spray the losing contestants with a fire hose.

Known as "Human Velcro" in this version

The first playing of the game featured a rope that was just too long and most contestants hit the water due to that, it was shortened after that.

In Episode 58, contestants have a weight chained around their ankle.
