A company will collect your money as payment to kidnap you if you are looking for the experience.

Ultime Realite based in Eastern France offers the unique service that consists of being seized by strangers, bound, gagged and bundled into a car, and kept in a dark cellar for four hours. Advanced packages include tailor-made services such as boat chases, helicopter escapes, and being kept for longer periods of time.

Sounds like your cup of tea?

The company provides the services of making you actually believe that your reputation, money and safety are at risk, but at the end it gives you a deep appreciation for life.

On the company’s website, a statement reads:

“You will go through the real sensations of violence, terror, and fear of a real kidnapping – a psychological shock that you won’t forget in a hurry.” As a customer at Ultime Realite, you can choose exactly the kind of scenario you want, but you will have no idea when or where disaster will strike. The contract states that “we will follow you for a few days. At an opportune moment, in the street or elsewhere, we kidnap you.”

30-year-old owner, Georges Cexus has been running the company for three years and he says he gets at least two orders a day especially from top-level executives addicted to adrenaline.

The experience has been likened to other extreme sports like bungee jumping and skydiving. Georges is careful to maintain the maximum time of incarceration at 11 hours, after which he says that the novelty might wear off. Nobody is ever physically hurt during the kidnappings, he assures. “That’s not part of the plan,” he says. “Together we think about the question of physical and psychological limitations. What I offer is a totally controlled experience that allows you to go further in your personal vision, in your experiences. Anything is possible. I identify what a customer wants and then try to put it into action.” Of course, if the customer feels he/she has reached their endurance threshold at any point, they can end the game by using a previously agreed password. “Let’s say it will really be about bringing to life  the client’s worst fear, the thing that’s lurking in the back of his mind  and he’s never dared to talk about,” said Cexus.
