Ninja Warrior anyone?!?

[galactiboy]

Simply an awesome and fun ass show to watch... Ninja Warrior on G4

If you haven't seen it, the show is basically a serious version of MXC but its all obstacle courses and in 17 competions only 2 guys out of 1700 have completed it. Also the course gets more difficult from competition to competition.

Its on G4 pretty much every night and gets addictive pretty fast!

i dont have tv at the house but i seen some episodes on youtube. pretty cool stuff. some of those guys are pretty good. wish i was in good enough shape to do that stuff.

I wish I had one of those courses just to play on. Except with clean water underneath instead of the muddy crap they let them fall into.

 

[occulum]

have to check it out.

I love watching MXC. Its brainless wind-down fun.
and the dubbed commentary is usually the best thing about it.

 

[BadMoon]

Love this show!

 

[hairlesswookiee]

what i find interesting about it how they make it somewhat realistic. there's so many videos on youtube of people running around in public doing the same stuff they do in the show.

Its really quite impressive when you see how athletic some of the competitors are. They do throw in a number of celebrities and funny contestants that are only there to fail miserably. But the guys that are good are damn impressive.

I'm sure I would fail terribly in the first stage... but man would it be fun to give it a shot

Love this show watch it every chance I get. It's always some fishermen or garbage collector that seems to do the best and the Olympic gymnasts will fail on stage two or three.

I love Ninja Warrior, also fun is "Women of Ninja Warrior".

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah the women's show is pretty good to... sadly on that one there is one chick that is just dominating the course.

I like this show, though I don't like how the later stages are usually pure upperbody strength.

I think it needs more agility, balance, etc to make it more "ninja-y".

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, the final two stages are brutal... but there is more need for agility in the earlier ones. Kind of a balance... although the ending dismount from the pipeslider (funny name I know) is pretty impressive when the make it... and even more when the land face first in the water
