   Personally, I've experienced Hell, for just a couple of minutes. My version is this itchy/clenchy feeling in the stomach and all across your skin, where we can't itch it or touch whatever it is, but you feel something *gnawing* at you.

   I can't stand bananas either. I too have literally vomited from the smell, for some reason, especially in the morning. It doesn't help that everytime^([sic]) I smell them, I get sense-memories of that slimy texture in my mouth, and just start to get that clenchy trying-not-to-hurl feeling in my throat.

   I see many more problems with getting the participants to be aggressive ENOUGH with their horses, who are walking all over them without a care in the world. Now I'd guess that if any given clinic just happened to be full of more jerky, aggressive, loud, harsh, grabby, clenchy people, maybe the predator thing would be emphasized a bit more.
