The I’m A Celeb 2024 trials ranked by how nearly they made me vomit

If someone chucked fish guts on me I’d run back to the hotel


I swear I’m A Celeb must have bumped up their budget for the bushtucker trials in 2024, because so many of them this year are truly revolting. Whatever eye-watering amounts of money they’re getting paid, it can’t be enough to eat brains. Here are the grossest I’m A Celeb trials from 2024 ranked by how much they nearly made me hurl. I would advise not reading this while you’re eating your dinner. You might see your food again.

The Arcade of Agony – 7/10

I still don’t understand all the rules for that whole arcade saga, and I guess it’s too late to start caring now. The crew really wanted to get their money’s worth from this set. Although there were fewer creepy animals involved in this one, I gagged every time someone waded through troughs of animal innards and flicked stringy clumps of it about. Yech.

Sinister Sarcophagus: The Mummy Returns! – 7.5/10

Oti totally slayed this trial because it looked so claustrophobic. I’m still a bit confused as to why Dean was screaming at the sand when he tried (and failed miserably) to do this challenge earlier on. But if I had that many bugs crawling about my face, the last thing I’d want to do is open my mouth to unscrew stars and answer trivia about Egypt and pretend to be smiling at Ant and Dec’s terrible jokes.

The High Street of Horrors – 8/10

ICK ICK ICK

I don’t know how a human can tolerate being elbow-deep in animal innards. Danny crawling through a tunnel being lightly eletrocuted looked pretty grim too. I would scream, “I’m a vegetarian, get me out of here!” and run away so fast the cameras couldn’t catch me.

Fright at the end of the Tunnel – 8.5/10

That score isn’t for the part that Maura had to do – which not going to lie, looked pretty easy. Does she know that small kids play with sand and look at lizards for fun? The score is for the underwater part which Jane did. Something about the water trials really creeps me out. I just wouldn’t trust that the plastic set wouldn’t crack and water wouldn’t trickle through and the air tanks wouldn’t slowly fill with dark water and I wouldn’t be able to breathe and the medics would be too busy screaming at the mini crocodiles to rescue me in time and the rangers wouldn’t be hot enough for it all to be worth it.

Farmyard of Fear – 9/10

Just no

This is the trial when rotting eggs, fish guts and animal organs were chucked all over Alan’s head. He had to fling all the disgustingness into a wheelbarrow (and surely flick loads of it into his mouth in the process?). Coleen chucked the stuff onto some weighing scales using her bare hands.

How would you ever mentally recover from this? More importantly, how would your hair ever recover from this? Surely that’s one stink you’re never getting out.

Teddy Bears’ Picnic – 10/10

Er, are the celebs meant to be foaming at the mouth?

This is the eating trial which Maura and that vicar dude did together. Even Ant and Dec admitted that this one smelt bad, and those two must be nose blind to animal carcasses by now. I don’t know what the texture of a mini sheep brain would be, and I don’t want to find out.

Tanks of Torture – 11/10

Oti so deserved that golden ticked to Celebrity Cyclone, because I swear she got lumbered with all the worse trials #otiforqueenofthejunglepls. In the Tanks of Torture, she and Melvin had to stick their heads in glass bubbles I doubt it’s legal to keep goldfish in. Then, all manner of creepy crawlies tap-danced away over their faces. Hell.

Tulisa and Reverend Richard’s eating trial – 100/10

I have no words for this. It’s easily the grossest and most harrowing of all the 2024 I’m A Celeb Trials. This challenge actually looked so disgusting that I had to watch it on fast-forward. Even flicking through the video for pictures was a bushtucker trial in itself. The fermented duck egg made Tulisa vomit a bit in her mouth, but she carried on and chomped down three huntsman spiders? Girl should’ve been queen of the jungle for that.

Tulisa later told her campmates that the spiders were kind of crunchy, then once she bit down a fluid came out of them. There’s something you wish you didn’t know.
