Barry Williams on Fear Factor: 1000 Snakes in a TankFear Factor: 1000 Snakes in a Tank

Barry Williams plunged into a tank of over 1000 snakes including a huge boa constrictor, thus showing there is no end to the lengths he will go.

FEAR FACTOR: Why did you agree to come on Fear Factor?

BARRY WILLIAMS: I've been excited about doing this show. I'm a fan of the show. I'm kind of looking at this as my wilderness challenge adventure, kind of a chance to face my fears and move past them. Of course, the competition is always good. And the other reason I showed up is because of all the pretty girls you've put together on this show [laughs].

Peter Gabriel's "The Barry Williams Show"

Exhibit J

Peter Gabriel wrote a song called "The Barry Williams Show". He did this without realizing there was an actor named Barry Williams. After learning this, he invited Barry to appear in the music video (probably to save face).



Barry's role in the video is not the roll of "Barry Williams". He merely plays an audience member with (if even) 5 seconds of screen time.

Oh, well. I guess it was nice just to be invited.
