I didn't really think I'd like this show, but I think Vic Romano and Kenny Blankenship are my heroes now. :D
Anybody else like this show also? Hehe.

Ripped off from the Gaming-Age forums.
Wow! **Warning! The clips are in RealMedia format!**

Hell yeah, this show is funny... think a show like this would ever be in the US? Probably not, everybody is too sue happy here. But damn, some of the things they do looks painful.

And the commentators are HILARIOUS.

I know the voices are dubbed, but is it a direct translation? Some of the stuff they say I can't imagine a Japanese person saying on television.

The show is NUTS, I can't believe the way some people (women too!) get hammered then stand up all smiling and happy.

I dont think it's anywhere near a direct translation. It seems to me they just say whatever they want to be funny.

It's like what would happen if the guys from MST3k got into the dubbing room. I love it.

I still need to find out what the deal is with the original show (Takeshi's Castle)
