The show is cool but guys who say they are in to "parkour" suck cock by choice.. 
var so = new SWFObject("http://www.youtube.com/v/idy08BJ6sxQ", "postVideo-39823092-Flash", "425", "355", "9.0.28", "##000"); so.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "samedomain"); so.addParam("allowNetworking", "internal"); so.addParam("wmode", "transparent"); so.write("postVideo-39823092"); this is just the child proofed version of MXC (takeshi's castle),
these assholes would not make it past the green teabagger

Thanks Cap. I was hoping i wasn't alone on that one. haha
Japanese version Is 100 times harder
I loved watching it on G4 before the directv ban. I am happy I get to see it again!
Mosely sucked so bad on Sirius radio WHY would they make him a commentator on anything. It is brutal to listen to that guy in any format.
Sasuke is hard as hell. They have only had like 1 champion that I know of. Now the Women's version that one hottie has won multiple times.
If you want to do well train for that event.
These parkour guys and rock climber seems like the perfect fit for this event but a lot of them still couldn't finish the course.
I hope it is showing regularly in Canada. I have it scheduled in my PVR for a series so i hope to catch them all.
I've been a fan of Sasuke for years, and am glad it's finally catching on in America.
I really like that they are making Mount Midoriama in Vegas too.
I wonder if in a few years, we'll have some 'all stars' too.
My Old Name Is Not Allowed - I watch way too much Ninja Warrior lol.
You guys saying the "Japanese course is harder" must not really follow and aren't sure what you are watching. Previous years of American Ninja Warrior all had like a boot camp/qualifier to train for the Japanese course, and they would then be sent to try the real deal. None made it.
This year, they are doing these mini courses just to narrow the field to give a shot at the new American course in Vegas, which is modeled after the Japanese one. To say the original is harder is pretty much wrong because you haven't seen the final course yet. You are only seeing a few obstacles to weed out the weak in route to the real course, which is the same obstacles as the Japanese course (which changes every year.)
Wait until you see the final round when they bring all the regional winners together for the real course, it's fucking nuts, just as the Japanese version is.
Very intrigued by the show as well and researched a bit and discovered only 2 men finished the coarse in Japan at the finals one took several years of competition to finally conquer it I think he was a Fisherman! Like you said no American has ever completed the final Course and finally isn't Mt. Midoriyama the finals going to be duplicated in Vegas for American Ninja Warrior?
TTT
Randleman would tear that course up a few years ago.
I think the korean zombie could do it.. And jason Macdonald.. Any other fighters you think could make it through the course?

I would agree with Jason MacDonald, he does a lot of the same stuff with that Cross Fit gym he runs. I would actually give Ivan Menjivar a chance to get through to, he's very athletic.

3 men conquered it, 2 of them were fishermen. Nagano (one of the fishermen) did it twice.
I forget who the third guy to complete it was.

KZ is huge into crossfit too.. that was my whole thought process. It takes a different kind of endurance i think to do this course.
I was offered a chance to go on the show and was like, are you crazy? I have coordination (can do quite a few sports well) and I'm strong, but not endurance and pull my entire body weight across a course strong. that's a completely different level.

Pretty much already do. Between Levi, Dave Campbell, Brian Or(starting2suck)o, and even Frosti Z. These guys are pretty good and obviously have the marketing ability, give the show another year and even the casual watchers will know these guys. Paul Kasimir (sp?) and the purple stripe guy are really catching on to.
Levi choked hard this year. I mean come on the first obstacle.
I'm pretty sure if a youth's pastor could beat first stage without any training, then I'm thinking alot of the lighter MMA guys would do good. They did have a couple guys this year who competed in MMA none did the greatest tho.
crosffit vs parkour. make it happen.
