Crisis shows viewers how people in authority respond in times of crisis, by placing them in a fake reality crisis situation that evolves during the course of the program. How do the contestants respond to a hostage situation threatening to go out of hand, or an announced suicide attack in a public place? Catastrophes like September 11, the crisis in the Middle East and various natural disasters have made it very clear that the people in power that need to respond to these situations are put under incredible pressure. |
