Anyone know anything about Whirl Until You Hurl on the Bush Beast?

In 2000, Australia's Wonderland ran a competition where 24 passengers boarded the Bush Beast and were challenged to stay on it for as long as they could, in order to receive a cash prize of $20,000. Ultimately, two contestants, Steve Fletcher and Rosa Vacarro, agreed to split the money after 40 days of riding. However, I read somewhere that this challenge was live-streamed on the internet. Does anyone know anything about this challenge and have access to the live stream (dumb question, I know).

It was in 1999. Whilst streaming technology existed, it was in its infancy and I highly doubt it was live streamed by wonderland 

a few news reports can be found online however, such as this
