Check out the video to learn more about how the concept began:

We did IT!!! turned off the lights that is - not only that I threw the breakers for the whole apartment (my poor roomates love me so much!), so no electricity at all - fridge, DVD player, clock radio, all dead from 8-9, actually since I didn't know what time it was we were actually dark from 8-9:32
