Wipeout was an Australian game show that aired on the Seven Network from 15 February 1999 to 24 November 2000. The show was based on the original American series of the same title and was hosted by Tony Johnston. This version was the only one to use children as contestants, and in turn used points instead of dollars due to a law in Australia and Europe which prohibits children from winning money on game shows. After the show was cancelled, it was rerun until 2004.
