@@thesharinganknight9859 used to watch a somewhat similar show called American Gladiators way back in the day. Wasn't an obstacle course like this but still had athletic people competing against eachother
@@thesharinganknight9859 First few seasons were genuinely great. The obstacles were well designed, and the show deserved its high ratings. After about season 10 or so, the show declined heavily, leaning way too much into sob stories of contestants, and digesting a lot of fantastic course runs into shitty montages. American Ninja Warrior became more about brand-building and faceless teenagers, rather than focusing on the obstacle course. Nowadays, it's basically unwatchable.

I mean, I can see that being in a show today. The entire point of it is the commentator dismissing gymnastics as a girl's sport, only for the competitor to start doing well, and then he just eats his words and does a 180. A joke that's literally just making fun of gymnastics for being a girl's sport and nothing else probably wouldn't fly.
I the first guy's final obstacle was the hardest. Swinging onto a sheer wall and having almost nothing to hang onto. Many of the other's were way easier looking.
@@starspangledhiker yeah man, in the American version, on the first episode I just rewatched, they had a wall you could break through, in this one you literally have to jump off and grab on to whatever you can
"Anyone caught flying around the course will be disqualified." This is the perfect announcer. The first one to make me genuinely laugh with one of their jokes.
@@Benjy52 Go back to school, little kid. While they is traditionally a third-person plural pronoun, used to refer to groups of two or more people or things, it can also be used as a singular pronoun, to refer to an individual person of unknown or nonbinary gender. This usage is referred to as the singular “they.”
@@Benjy52 Ok so you apparently can't accept certain things in life about genders, not gunna fault you for that. But let me give an example that maybe you can understand how they can still be singular. If I was telling someone that there is an idiot in youtube comments and all I have is their username, lets just call it something random, idk, like Benjy52 or something similar. No way to know their gender, and when telling the story I forgot their username. I wanted to tell someone that this person said 'xyz'. How would I say it? Of course, I would say, THEY said xyz. It can be used as singular. Grow up.
I feel like the course would be significantly easier if you remain dry throughout, especially with the balls. Maybe thats why the course with William had a waterslide at the beginning, to make it harder to do a flawless run. The clips here don't show the whole course for everybody, so i'm not sure my assumption is true, but if it is i think it is especially impressive for William to get a flawless run while being wet.
The waterslide is there depending on the first obstacle. If you're facing an obstacle that's suspended in the air above the pool, they'll elevate the ramp and turn off the water. If the obstacle is at ground level or goes over the mudpit at the side of the course, it'll be a waterslide as normal.
Junior taking almost 20 seconds to stand up then getting the fastest time of his day is amazing The national anthem playing over it makes it even more amazing 🏴
On the one hand, someone from Ninja Warrior would absolutely smoke a lot of the obstacles. On the other, I don't think they're really acquainted with how to deal with giant rubber balls, for example. Absolutely crush some obstacles and (possibly literally) be thrown off by others, in other words.
@@ThiccyBoo_Boneman That's a digital effect added in afterwards. It's there because the contestant kept flinching away from the handhold with a boxing glove just in front of it so his arm wouldn't get punched, so they turned it into a joke about him getting zapped by faulty wiring.
I've never watched the UK version of this show, but at second 6 on the first clip I recognized Richard Hammond's voice. I'll now be watching this show.
The narrator sounds like he's looking more Italian the older he gets. I hope the narrator doesn't have a single car crash in his life. He sounds like he LOOOOVES Porsches.
I don't know why anybody would ever want to do anything like this, it absolutely boggles my mind anybody would willingly subject themselves to the absolute torture of being british.
On the other hand I think stepping in the mud should disqualify him from being considered a “flawless run”. It was still better than I could ever manage
Richard does the gymnastics comment referring to English schools, where only girls are allowed to learn gymnastics in PE classes. It is not used as a sexist comment; it is a part of British culture.
Is this the original announcer?? He's hilarious and so much more relaxing than the American Ninja Warrior football guys screaming at you

You can pretty much jump most of the sucker punch mud pit.
So you're telling me the speedrun can be optimised further? Nice.
These people know irl speedrun tech.
Some people fail at everything and still get really good times
That’s because some of those people are fast swimmers which allow them to still get fast times.

I remember that whenever someone would successfully land on the first big red ball, we'd all immediately sit up straight and pay attention.

To be fair very few people can cross them

@witherblaze English version of Girl scouts basically.
you know it was a different time when it starts out with "gymnastics, thats a girls sport"

5:15 most impressive thing I've ever seen
Man sprints over the Balls like a lizard on water.
He really didn't want to touch the balls any longer than necessary
I swear I could do the same. What tricks people up is how unconventional the movements necessary are.

It's almost impossible to cross the balls if the contestant before you got mud or water on them.

@@koolerstream921 Kind of yeah. But the first guy and the last guy did have wet shoes right from the start of the course.
These balls are easier than the new ones because they are descending instead of being on the same height.

Same.
Getting a flawless run probably helps a lot with the big balls. Friction is a lot more reliable when you haven’t gotten wet.

The BBC archives have sooooo many songs licenced in their name. You’d be amazed how many songs they use on it.
Wipeout had a very eclectic mix. Some I've never heard anywhere else and wish I could.
It's one of the reasons I prefer the British version. So many of my favourite songs were found from it.
