I watched a bunch of those over the weekend in between NCAA games. It was on the G4TV channel and was called "Ninja Warrior".
http://www.g4tv.com/ninjawarrior/index.htmlThey were showing a bunch of the episodes in preparation for a new season of it. Apparently it's a competition held like twice a year?
Up until that guy beat the course, only 1 other person had ever done it. Only 2 people in 10 years have finished the course. Most years no one wins. The American that won the Olympic gold medal in gymnastics at the Athens Olympics was in the competition a couple of times. He made it to the 3rd round once (the un-timed round) before failing.
You have to be an incredible athlete just to survive the first round. Anyway if you see it on TV check it out... Pretty awesome!
