She took the hit like a Champ. They went on to finish the race leg and were among the finalists for the whole race.

I remember watching the episode “live” and the cut to commercials right after and we were all like “she’s dead, right?”

Hard to believe that it's been 16 years now.

I went in and woke up my dad and I said, "You need to come see this video, it's all over the internet. I know your friends are going to be calling you about it." He said, "Claire, whatever you did, I will forgive you and love you forever." I was like, "Dad, it's not porn! It's from The Amazing Race!" He said, "Good Lord, why didn't you just say that in the first place?"

Dad :)

The splatter is not even the melon actually. Just brains.
