Speaking about the gas chamber stunt in Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, all contestants were locked inside a chamber room. They had to perform a task inside the room based on their numbers and then come out. The task involved watching a combination of colors on TV and then placing rings on a rod according to that combination and removing a flag from a suitcase.

If the combination was correct, the stunt was complete. Otherwise, the contestant had to repeat the process. Abhishek successfully completed the stunt within time.

So far, Asim Riaz has been expelled from Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 and Shilpa Shinde was eliminated.
