G4 is teaming with reality production house Super Delicious for a series that looks at the world's toughest people, places and things.
Titled "That's Tough!" the docuseries will show viewers the toughest high-security prisons, sniper units and bank vaults, among other examples.
G4 has ordered eight half-hour episodes of the series, which is scheduled to premiere Oct. 20. Each will profile the three toughest entries in each category.
"It's no secret that guys love to debate what the biggest, baddest, strongest is of everything," G4 president Neal Tiles said. "This series sets the record straight once and for all in a way that's edgy, irreverent and fun."
"Tough!" is produced by the Wme-repped Super Delicious (Spike's "Manswers," Food Network's "Cupcake Wars"), with Cara Tapper, Adam Cohen and Joanna Vernetti executive producing.

The late-night trivia show "MANswers" has been picked up for 10 episodes, while the 13-episode order for "Die," from Thom Beers' Original Prods., includes a pilot for "Lie."
Just like "Die," which re-creates some of the most outlandish ways people died, "Lie" will showcase some of the most outrageous lies ever told in a fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek manner.
Beers pitched the title of the spinoff to Sharon Levy, Spike's senior vp original programming, and she was sold. "Thom's got his finger so firmly on the pulse on our core audience," Levy said.
"Die" and "MANswers," whose renewals Levy called "a no-brainer" based on their strong performance on TV and online, will air in a block next season, she said. (They have run on different nights, Sunday ("Die") and Tuesday ("MANswers")
