Why am I just now finding out about American Ninja Warrior?

This show is pretty cool. The commentators can suck a dick but these athletes are impressive. Better than futbol anyways.
We started watching it, too....pretty sure they would have no problem negotiating a Marine obstacle course. Kind of interesting that the men and women compete on the same playing field.

I was flipping through channels in the hotel since they didn't have PPV porn and found it. Whoever created the course has a cool job too. The 3rd level is certainly daunting especially since they keep stats on how many times you start it versus even completing it.
Half a mil. to the champion, I think. Interesting also in that that beefed up muscle heads aren't necessarily the best at it.

Think you could get over that wall, Bolt?
I used to watch it when I lived in Italy (its originally a Japanese show). I was flipping channels and started watching it again. I think the Japanese courses are much harder but I think the shows I've seen so far are just stage 1.
Wow...just one guy made it thru the course last night. I think he should be given some reward instead of just qualifying for Vegas.
