Really? I thought the exaggerated flopping around looked idiotic.
It would be funny if they added sparks flying out from the scale if the contestant loses.
Eye candy (and, worse, completely illogical eye candy) for a loss? I'm reminded of a video game about the arms race that came out in the early 80's, called "Balance Of Power". If you failed, it simply popped up a text screen that displayed something very close to the following:
You have ignited a nuclear war.
And no, there is no animated display or a mushroom cloud with parts of bodies flying through the air.
We do not reward failure.
