Sasuke 29 Navi

PART ONE OF NAVI HERE

And we are back! Off to Stage 1 of Sasuke 29!!! Yes! We are going to show runs that will be cut from the broadcast! LOL

And now a pan of the first stage with the loooooong run up

Looks daunting LOL

This is the ^Long Jump ロングジャンプ

Side view of the Long Jump. It's distance is 4.5 meters which is about 14.8 feet (for male competitors) and 3.5 meters which is about 11.4 feet (for female) competitors.

and.. we have a modified *Log Gripロググリップ

and a side view of the slope

In the past the log only had holes

and even with friggin' BARS.. this dude decides he doesn't need them...

and is thrown off for his stupidity..

Now it's ~~Sonic the~~ Hedgehog Time!

This is called the ^Hedgehogヘッジホッグ

This obstacle rotates as you try to run across

and pray you don't get hung up on the poles and throw you off

like this guy...

so now they do a montage of thrill of victory

and agony of defeat

missed with a "PSYCHE" moment where this guy thought he cleared...

only to fall off the side and into the water..

Awww they are going to cut her? Oh well..

~~Mika Izumi~~ er.. Mika Watanabe渡邉美香

Hey.. Mom.. pat me on the head too?

Anywho for those who didn't remember her, back in 2003 she was in Kunoichi's final!

and off she goes runnin'

Yes! Clear on the Long Jump!

oh.. making love to Sasuke Spray..

taking a long time to set up..

clear though so that's good

Full stop on this too..

working her way through finally..

leaaaaaning but made it through!

complete stop on this too..

She got it!

nooooooo.. lets go.. and foot hits the water..

Mika Watanabe渡邉美香 - Death by Jump Hang Kai

Oh.. I don't know the daughter's name but they finally showed it!

Her son is so cute too! She's got adorable kids!

Another female

she's.. massaging her breasts on television.. yeah lady.. only the Kanto region is seeing this.. on a Sunday afternoon.. probably after church..

so boob lady clears the Long Jump

and is carefully eyeballing the hedgehog

but going a little too slow...

LOL but she's hanging on to dear life!!

omg is she going to try to ride it back up the other side? I have to give her props for trying!

but she falls in. Rika Kawamura 川村りか- Death by Hedgehog

aww are they showing ALL of the ladies during navi??

Lovely karate fighter 美人空手家
Hikaru Nakajima 中島ひかる

wow they fast forwarded her so she got to the Jump Hang Kai too! That's cool!

Aww but she couldn't hang on.

Hikaru Nakajima 中島ひかる - Death by Jump Hang Kai

oh .. a dude oh wow I didn't recognize him at first! He hasn't been in Sasuke in 12 tournaments!

Masaaki Kobayashi小林正明

K they started him on the hedgehog

Oh he jumped on the left!

but couldn't hang on..

Masaaki Kobayashi小林正明 - Death by Jump Hang Kai

and now we pause to stare at Mr. Sasuke's ass..

Hellooooooo Kitty..

and we are back from commercial.. as we contemplated at the meaning of his buttocks.. Mister Sasuke All-Star Katsumi Yamada山田勝己

as we relive the failure in Sasuke 28

and relived his speech where he retired officially (again)

we see that he came to Sasuke anyway!

but what's this? he's training people! (channeling Ube.. that can't be good)..

So Yamada is training 4 guys.. guess this is the next set of assassins?

WAIT! I CALL FRAUD!!!!!!!!

wait no.. didn't he obliterate his course after Sasuke 28????

oh you liiiiiied...

one of these things is not like the other..

I'm sure the diehard Ninja Warrior fans are freaking out that 3/4 are consuming alcohol right now.. I'm cackling.

weird moment but smart to show how the position of the rolling escargot is ... flat against it.. however.. it's not in this tournament!

Yamada's group, btw, is called "黒虎," or "Black Tiger."

Yousuke Watanabe 渡辺陽介

Koshige Yamamoto 山本浩茂

Satoma Okada 岡田知磨

Keishi Mizukawa 水川圭史

Yamada's group "黒虎," or "Black Tiger."

Former K-1 fighter and Muay Thai champion - Kouzou Takeda 武田幸三

reminder that before Sasuke 28 TBS sold Ninja Warrior to 157 countries.. now.. not so sure since there isn't a Ninja Warrior version anymore now that Comcast abandoned it..
