Plot: A reformed gambler searching for his ex-wife and daughter; an amateur private-eye he hires; an assassin on a mission, and; a recruiter of mixed-martial arts fighters. Their lives intertwine when they come to Hawaii to accomplish their respective objectives. Rich McShane has overcome issues which years earlier served to extricate him from his wife and kid. He now wants to restore his family unit, and suspects the ex- and daughter are living on the North Shore of Oahu, which happens to be, the surfing capital of the world. Rich hires his pal, twenty-six year-old, Eddie Masters, to travel to Hawaii in stealth mode, to determine whether the hunch is accurate. As Eddie searches he meets and is befriended by Layla, a gorgeous nursing-student in the midst of a break-up with, Clarence Makaha, perhaps the most dangerous local on the North Shore, and known through out the region for his skills in mixed-martial arts. Eddie and Layla are witnessed together and word travels fast. That night Eddie is awakened, tasered, transported while unconscious, carried on to a fishing-boat, and deposited in the middle of the ocean, in the black of night, leaving him treading water under the moonlight with no land in sight in shark-infested waters. He has just become the subject of what's known in urban legend as a Hawaiian divorce. Being that Ed is no stranger to fight-training himself, if he can-somehow survive this test of will and set foot on dry land once again, the action is sure to spike. (And, he may even catalyze that family reunion). It all goes down, in the course of, SIX DAYS, against a backdrop of world-class surfing, mixed-martial arts, beautiful beaches, and all else one can expect to see IN a place called...PARADISE.

There are categories such as "Best Performance with a Tiger" and "Best Performance with a Firearm" just to name a few. With guides such as Louis Armstrong, Jimmy Stewart, and Katherine Hepburn, you'll be taken to a world of stupidity you didn't even know existed. A world where people hug live tigers, tie themselves to untamed livestock and cut off their own heads! All are worthy but only a few can win the Darwin Award.
