About the Show
Reality Series
8-14 year-olds
3 Seasons – 33 x 60’ episodes
In the exciting reality series “IN REAL LIFE” eighteen kids – aged 12-14 – race across North America and compete in a series of thrilling real-life tasks to discover the skills, strength, and stamina it takes to make it in real life! Part heart-pounding race, part intense skill competition, each contestant must avoid elimination by winning a variety of hands-on challenges that range from the ultra glamorous to the ultra disgusting to the ultra dare-devil.
From super-fast NASCAR racing and outrageous Hollywood stunts, to learning to use the Jaws of Life, comedian Sabrina Jalees leads the kids through each mind-blowing challenge. The ultimate goal? College tuition money plus an all expense paid family vacation.
