Extreme Rhetoric can be a mix of information and entertainment. Contestants argue a point, (the source of argument is arbitrary and trivial,) and then go to extreme lengths to prove themselves. A scientific proof for their point can be discussed optionally at the end of the segment for infotainment value.

For example,
-Argument: I will break just as many bones jumping from 1,000 metres as 10,000 metres.
-Extreme Proof: Skydiving (twice) without a parachute.
-Scientific Proof: (optional)

…or,

-Argument: Urine is sterile, drinking it will do no harm
-Extreme Proof: Drink urine
-Scientific Proof: (optional)

…and so on, and so forth.
