Thanks Fluid Byte. It's amazing to hear the seriousness of the commentary - "oh no, the wind is really impacting his ability.. (to rip off the beer bottle top)".. such programs are not unusual in Japan. It's a kind of entertainment.. I guess.

Holy Smack!!!

Impressive...
I wanna do that too!!!

No news for me! Most pepole know that the japanese TV entertaiment is a bit, well, let's call it different? I have seen guys blowing off the candles on a birthday cake by farting at it!

Anyway, back in the day when I was enjoying Takeshi's Castle (wich still is one of my all-time-favorite TV shows) you could speculate how japanese television will envolve in the next years.

That show was pretty cool (weird, strange, sick, funny)...
I laught many many times...

Beat Takeshi is a prolific producer - his latest material "unbelievable" is a weekly TV series focussing on truly incredible facts or events in human history, like thousand-year-old icemen discovered, or ghost/mystery stories - material not usually seen on regular programming. I find Japanese TV fascinating.. especially like 'TV Champion' where you'll have a series of experts competing to be one of the best 3 - then face-off in some really tough challenges.. not just the usual run-of-the-mill bread bakers, etc, but unusual experts like 'pokemon character expert' or 'ultraman' where they have to id some rare characters that might have appeared once from 20 years ago, or craftmen who can build anything from toothpicks, to people who can id the name of a cake and where it is baked & sold, just by looking at only the top part of the cake, or tasting just a tiny spoonful. Where do they find these people.. Japanese ads are also very interesting viewing.
