Why can nobody complete the Ninja Warrior challenges?

I mean, first of all, many of them train for years. And also, aren%26#039;t most Japanese pretty much BORN ninjas? Then on the show they fall right at the end of the %26quot;pipe slider%26quot; and you just wasted 30 minutes.





What gives?|||The courses are brutal. Particularly Stage 3, where they spend the better part of 5 minutes working their way across purely with upper body strength while hanging from their arms. Think about that. Try going as fast as you can across some monkey bars for 5 minutes straight, then try and do that Pipe Slider (where your own swinging momentum is a disadvantage, as it drives the pipe backwards).








And really, except for the Warped Wall, every obsticle is a one-shot deal: You miss, and you%26#039;re gone. You have no room for error across about 20 obstacles (including some of the new evil ones like the Jumping Spider and Salmon Ladder).





Also, bear in mind that all these people have full-time jobs, most of which aren%26#039;t physically all that strenuous. Sure, you%26#039;ve got the Olympic atheletes and the firefighters and such, but a lot of them are office workers and TV hosts.|||Dude, please save yourself the shame and NOT mention Ninjas ever again. %26quot;Most Japanese are pretty much born Ninjas%26quot;? What movies are you watching? I%26#039;m not even Japanese, not even anything Asian and I find that embarrassing!!|||1. Nagano is the man!!!





2. That stuff is way hard. You would have to be in amazing shape to get through any or all stages. There are maybe 35 serious competitors out of the 100, many are there for fun( or publicity.) Between the obstacles and the time limit, the first two stages take speed and agility to beat. Thats why so few get to Stage 3 or 4.





3. Maybe you would like MXC-Maximum Extreme Challenge more. The challenges are similar but the show is played for laughs, so you kinda want to people fall in the muddy water.|||Because the obstacles are hard as hell, nearly impossible to complete.





Ninjas were people in feudal Japan that trained ninjutsu, are you saying that Japanse are BORN with skills without having to learn them?





In order to complete the Ninja Warrior challenges, you need a nimble, light, powerful body with a superhuman grip.|||lol i%26#039;ve wondered the same thing...there%26#039;s a few of those guys that actually do nothing but train all year and still can%26#039;t do it. they hold 2 ninja warriors a year and the full winner (if there is one) get%26#039;s about $15,000 (US) from what i%26#039;ve heard...so if someone wins BOTH in one year they%26#039;ve got $30,000, but with living expenses over there like they are...seriously why bother.|||was your mom brittany spears? she must of droped you on your head when you were little|||1 word 4 ya it describes you best than any other word spelled N-E-R-D pronouced nerd heh heh nija challenges so 1990%26#039;s
