Check out the amazing performance this guy turns in on what has to be a ridiculously challenging obstacle course. It looks like the video is spliced to get under the YouTube 10 minute limit, so I don't know what his total elapsed time was, but damn, the challenges keep getting harder. The video's nine minutes long, but it's worth sticking it out to the end. What a display of pulling strength and endurance.

Does it get any better than Japanese game shows? « via RT forums »

UPDATE: Wikipedia says the guy is Makoto Nagano and the show is "Ninja Warrior", and that only he and another guy (Kazuhiko Akiyama) have ever successfully completed all four stages.

Hi

I'm Jim Biancolo, and this is my weblog. It's mostly links to stuff I find interesting (here are some of my favorites), but some stuff is mine. I also created Listology in the previous millennium (raised it from a pup but I stopped playing with it and I felt bad so I gave it away to a good home), and the fitness weblog Lean & Hungry Fitness, which is gone, subsumed, but it was a cool domain while it lasted.
