 Hey there friends! How's it going? My name is Kevin. And today we're doing something a little bit different, which is basically not different at all because everything seems to be a little different these days. And today we're doing something a little bit different. And today we're doing something a little bit different. Today we're doing something a little bit different. And today we're doing something a little bit different. And today we're doing something a little bit different. But today we're gonna be watching Takeshi's Castle, a show that I used to watch a lot when I was young. Which kind of makes sense now that I think about it It's basically watching people getting just tormented by all these challenges. They have to go through if you've seen this I'm sure you're ready for a trip down nostalgia lane And if you haven't you're gonna want to find out what this show is all about because it is fantastic. All right, let's let's dive right in Immediately you're like what the hell is going on people dressed as massive hands falling over each other Oh the honeycomb maze this thing is fecking terrifying honestly I don't know why anyone would want to do this show, but look at all of them. They look so eager They're ready to be tortured. They remind me of my sims Smiling while the world burns around them. So here they go. This is the first challenge. Okay. He failed immediately But how this show works is they have to do these challenges and if they get through they get through to the next round And you want to get to that the final essentially, but we'll get there don't worry But look how terrifying this thing is like they're just running through doors getting chased with these monsters in a maze And you can't go slow. So if you run through and it's water, you just fall right in it's terrifying Also, I'm pretty sure he just said they can't swim And no that wasn't a joke he's being serious. Oh my god, what are they doing to them like you'd never sleep again If this happened to you look at that guy. It's so scary. Oh, they're letting her go. Oh, no wait No, they're not. I don't think you could do this stuff anymore Like if you took that clip and just put it black and white Maybe put a little bit more static the show hasn't off as it is But a little bit more static then added some text saying like torture footage from the Irish Civil War I know they don't look Irish, but hey, it'll be so static that you won't be able to tell but you'd almost believe it's legit She's excited like why are they also excited for this? Maybe they're just more fun people because I think I'd be crying before I even start not a minute He's chasing me like that Well, she doesn't know that but like please oh Okay, she even saw the water is there. She was just like I'm not dealing with this. It just walked in Don't call her silly old bat She had no idea it reminds me of doing let's plays on games like portal or people know the solution and then because you take More than five seconds to figure it out. They're like you're so stupid. Just because you know the solution. Oh Oh This this is a win. He's fecking excited. Oh god that excitement didn't last long He's just panicking trying to get back out. He's almost got it. He's almost got it. He's got yes I knew my fate was well placed in him. I can imagine me showing up in this show I'd have like water wings on and everything. Oh my god. He's fighting him. This is a cage match I like it show the replay of him being Tormented as well like that is really really traumatic. I would imagine it looks traumatic from an overhead view Not a mind like if it was from his perspective. Oh if they bring this back They should put on like go-pros or something. It would be terrifying Yeah, I don't know how we actually did this he literally hit every door that was safe If he hit any of the other doors, he would have gone into the water All right, this one's called show of hands, which is just a fantastic one This is the one we saw in the intro where they're all hands So they tell them a card and then they've got to run and land on the correct card I believe Yeah, I was thinking the same thing Mr. Commentator. There's not much to add really It's just people in hands just flopping on to the couch Japanese TV must be amazing Oh, they're lost. Oh, they're lost. They need a hand. Come on. Help them out. Okay. That was bad. I'm sorry Did they did they win? I wish I could understand what they're looking for No these questions can be answered by your commentator today at least all the commentators is confused as I am Where the hell is it? Why can they not find it? It's as if they can only look right in front of them because they're wearing massive hand outfits I should really give them more slack. They just did it so fast every other round like look at this I don't wait. Maybe not look at this. Okay. No, look at this. They got it immediately This is what the Hunger Games should have been honestly I think they missed a beat It should have just been a giant game of to get she's castle would be a lot more entertaining to watch and they couldn't Screw around with the rules as much. It's like you're dressed as giant hands jumping on cards You can't just boat threatened to kill yourselves. Okay, that's not how you're gonna get out of this This one is absolutely horrible Some of the rocks are safe and some are not like that one that she just stood on but some of them Just go for it like this guy who just smashed his ribs. Oh Oh God he's not having children Jesus that was awful to make it you've got to have confidence, but also okay. Maybe not this much confidence He was timed that entirely but what I was saying is you have to have confidence but not What is happening? Don't leave him do it. He's drunk. He's falling before he gets there That was irresponsible of them, but what I'm trying to say It's a head when I'm watching even slow motion do this is that you have to have confidence also Confidence gets you injured in this one really really fast. Okay, this person has it. They're confident, but not they're down All right. I was wrong. Okay for once maybe a spot of physiotherapy required after that one Oh, I think physiotherapies needed for all of them and in general just therapy. This is traumatic. Oh god I think he needs a GPS. He's just jumped off to the side for no reason We've got Oh, I can't wait for the karaoke I don't even understand how that that works like how do you win it? But I guess we'll find out that's the end of part one. I'll see you in the next video Shout out to Patriots hindering 420. Oh wait. No, it doesn't work like that on my YouTube channel. Sorry We're gonna continue and watch part two. So this one's simple. It's just a balancing act That's all it is. You just got to keep your balance and also turn Okay, it's not that simple, but she's done it out of all of the ones they've done so far This one is probably the one I'd be most willing to do but I'd still be screaming I don't like getting wet. All right. I just don't like it. I've picked up unfortunate country to live in since it rains here all the time The girls seem to be doing a lot better than the guys the guys are doing pretty horrible This guy's leaning forward. So you know, it's gonna be bad. Yeah, he's he's gone He's just waving to them It's like an over-the-top stuntman or something. I mentioned you came all the way out here to do that You probably signed a contract about this big as a waiver and then you fall out of the ball immediately and you're out Okay, this one's called fish food. I don't really remember this one. Oh god. Yeah, I remember this one again This one seems more Fun. All right, maybe I wouldn't do it. I just don't want to break my ribs. That's all I want to God that thing is fast like it goes from zero to 60 and about naught point one seconds. It's got better acceleration than most cars Hopefully it'll give amnesia so just forget this whole experience. Yeah, it's on a feckin string How the hell are you supposed to stay on that? These games are so hard. Oh God, oh god interesting strategy. I mean he stayed on I think only like two people got past the second obstacle No one got through. That's fine run to karaoke. This will calm us down. I love a bit of karaoke I hope they sing all the hits like all stare or I'm a believer anything that smashman sings. I'm I'm totally down for Oh my god, even a karaoke. They're still falling over. They get everyone drunk before this Guaranteed like you'd have to be drunk to agree to all these They're all dancing to this. I mean it's gotta be a winner if they're that good It's like a sitcom when a cameo happens or something they all applaud and laugh when he comes in the door and he gives the old I Think he's got stage fright Wait, is is he saying it? I think he is I've heard this one before on the radio. I think oh god. They don't like it. They don't like it They don't like romance songs. They've been through a heartbreak. Okay. This is the challenge I would most rather do plus I know plenty of k-pop and stuff I could do Johnny Cash bring a fire up there. Is she good? Oh, he's enjoying it. I think that's the important thing I think those people sitting down make the call on this one for some reason the host is just happy to be there He reminds me a turd same fashion sense, too. Oh my god. Is she gonna do some reggae with that hat? I Think that's right. Hey, I don't know what's happening. They think they're getting rid of her. Oh my god She's scared. Oh, there's no need to push her Jesus Christ pushed her twice No, we got another cameo coming in here everyone laughs as he comes in. Oh, he's got showmanship You gotta put him through I don't know what he's singing or if he's singing well, but that showmanship it gets an A plus That's enough to carry him through in my book. Oh, not not in their book though. We're we're reading from very different books I think that gets you killed in his book to be honest. He doesn't even care. He's happy. He's gone home Maybe that's why he was celebrating Oh He's doing a warm-up. He's getting ready to sing. I've heard of vocal warm-ups, but I don't think this is it Wait, I think he's just leaving He what he didn't even sing. He's just a little warm-up. There was some bribery going on there Oh, all the souls who have failed on their way to the castle. Okay, so now we're at the showdown This is where all our winners gather together to assault the castle I'm just gonna pause it for a second here because I want to explain About this show and how you win it is you basically have to kill all the guards Well, not kill them that would be a bit extreme You go from karaoke to murder although I'm sure this show might drive you to killing someone but what you got to do is shoot out this little Circle on the front of their car so their cars won't work and they're trying to do the same of the contestants I've only seen people win it once and I don't know what the prize is And I'm sure the commentator even said it that they're not sure what they're gonna win and it was never really explained as far as I know I'm sure it probably was in Japan, but I never saw an explanation So I don't know what they win and the chances of these people winning are extremely slim But let's see what they can do. So how many do we have we have five here They've got these little small carts and the guards have more people on each and better cars in general They're probably a bit more coordinated given the contestants are bashing into each other Yeah, you can see there that they've broken the pad on front of the contestants one So it's not moving anymore and look at that. Even their guns are better. I think this gets shootin his own bad I think there's one left already. Oh, no, there's two left, but look at them. They're just cleaning up They're just going right up to them. They don't even care after all that an entire day of being tortured and you're gone like that He's like how could this have happened I really thought we had him this time What's the saying a hundredth time lucky and that's the ending very Anticlimactic after you build it all the way up like that and it took so many people so much effort to actually get to the end And that's how it ends. But yeah, I think we're gonna leave it there Let me know what you think of Takeshi's castle in the comments I'd be very curious to see how many of you watched as a child because I don't know how common it was I'm not sure how how global it was So it'll be really interesting to see if you watched it or if you didn't watch it or and if you never heard of it I'd be very interested to hear about it And if you could include your country in the comments as well, I'd be very very curious, but yeah, we're gonna end it there I hope you enjoyed if you've any other shows like this that you'd like me to take a look at wacky shows or just old shows in general I love that kind of thing. So do let me know I hope you stayed safe given the strange times we find ourselves in I appreciate watching as always and I hope to see you next time
