Hollywood, CA — A contestant on the TV show “Fear Factor” was injured while participating in a stunt while filming an episode of the show. The woman escaped the accident with no major injuries, reported TMZ.

The driver’s vision reportedly had been blocked for a moment when the accident occurred.
The woman was not thrown from the vehicle.
On-set EMTs rushed the woman to an area hospital for treatment of injuries. She reportedly sustained no major injuries and was released from the hospital after a few hours.
The woman’s identity is being withheld and it is unknown if she will return to the show to finish out her role on the TV game show.
