A new reality TV show has been launched in Germany to find the man with the fastest sperm.

The sperm will be attracted to the finishing line by a chemical lure identical to that emitted by the female egg in the womb.

The aim is to find Germany's most virile man in a new reality show being dubbed Sperm Race.

Twelve men, including two celebrities and a 'health freak', will take part in the show set to be aired later this year.

The show will follow the contestants as they make donations at a sperm bank. The frozen sperm will then be transported to the studio in Cologne.

Borris Brandt, 43, head of production company Endemol in Germany, rejected protests that the show was unethical, saying no human eggs would be fertilised.

"The main prize in the competition is a Porsche, not a baby. It's actually a very scientific programme and the topic of fertility is massive in Germany at the moment," he said.

The sperm will be released into a test tube in which a chemical substance will draw the fluid towards it

The winner will be pronounced by a team of doctors including a gynaecologist, an andrologist and a urologist.

Brandt added: "The programme isn't immoral. We're only testing, we're not conceiving."

Actually, I think it would be a much more interesting show if the twelve men lined up, with "puds" in hand and judges spaced anywhere from 3 feet to 10 feet out, ready to measure distance - you know, as is done with "shot put" or "discus" events.

Next will be a reality show in San Francisco, with a bunch of poofters sitting in a hot tub;

they all fart at once, and see who's package makes it to the surface first!

I don't fall immediately into such a deep sleep that I wouldn't wake up if THAT were going on.

Gives new meaning to "a spurt at the end..."

And I thought "My Mother the Car" was a dumb idea...

[cjshapi]

Or "the winner by a head"

You owe me a new keyboard and monitor. That'll teach me to sip tea while reading your posts...

I think you've finally stunned me (or is that "stuned my beeber") speechless.
