Ninja Warrior 27- Japan's Ultimate Obstacle Course, How would getbiggers get on?

[Method101]

A great watch. True natural healthy functional strength, not the retarded drug bodies of the IFBB.

Considering the fact that most of the guys who win in Japan are not the athletic elite, some even have very mundane day jobs, and that competitors in the US tend to have Parkour/gymnastic backgrounds, I'd say if people took a serious interest in it, they (Westerners) would dominate it.

Ninja Warrior is a great way to train that Sleek, Cat-like Physique

Roidmonsters wouldn't get far, need to be agile and dextrous.

Gold medal winning gymnasts and wrestlers from Europe have tried it and failed, so have a lot of MMA guys. The Japanese are built for this kind of thing.

  Has ANY one EVER finished EVERY obstacle?

[Rhomboids]

Yes.  The guy i think on the second screen up there finished it once.  He's the only guy to complete the course.  THe last stage is basically climbing a long ass rope in 30secs or so.  I love watching the Japanese show but the American one doesn't have the same feel for me.

 I am asking, because I saw sasuke and the guy that got close to winning it all failed at the last long ass rope climb  he ran out of time just short of finishing it and the rope gave and he fell   they were saying that he was the only one that came close to finishing the entire show

[Obvious Gimmick]

Loved watching that show when I was drinking. Not as much fun sober

The last video would have shown you a winner if you watched it. 

[arce1988]

  I did not watch these vids    I saw the show on cable    I did not realize how many times they have changed the course   etc

no, they aren't "built" for it. They have been doing it for awhile. There is literally no money in it. All the really athletic people are doing sports that they get paid in. Nobody in the US outside of Parkour enthusiasts who are in school or deliver pizzas, cares about doing this.
Same for Europe. If you have guys who are dedicated to this in a serious manner, they'd dominate.

If the Japanese were really built for this, and called it Ninja whatever, then there would be more women, as women often times were the best ninjas.

You are so wrong here bro. First of all no white guy or westerner ever make it the finals and I have seen american Olympic athletes try this (at least 2) they suck and blacks suck at gymnastics. Asians will aways win this why cause Asians are tiny and hold all the record for self lifting techniques. No one climbs a rope better then Asians bro and these guy can crank out 60 to 70 legit chin ups bro.

Lol at woman bro, they are not strong like men. The winners have always been men and 115-130lb trust me westeners suck at this.

I am pretty sure they have showed 3 different guys beat all the course

[arce1988]

  Wow  so three guys have beat the entire course    awesome
