British Dating Show Love Trap Embraces Chaos with Shocking Ending

The Love Boat has nothing on The Love Trap.

On Monday, a clip from British dating show The Love Trap went viral as Twitter users slowly realized what kind of unhinged fun our friends across the pond are up to. In the clip, Love Trap bachelor David Birtwistle (of Netflix's Too Hot to Handle fame) must determine which of his three potential suitors is already in a relationship. When all is said and done, the woman he chooses falls through a trap door on the set, a conclusion that left Birtwistle, the two remaining suitors, and Twitter reeling.

The Love Trap has only been airing on the UK's Channel 4 for a few weeks, but the viral clip has likely sealed its Season 2 renewal. Viewers in the United States can watch full episodes on YouTube.
