I watched most of the episodes. Only one person has beaten all four stages. Forgot who though. So who watched when they had Spiderwalk, hammers, tunnel and lifts?

Right, wasn't it a Japanese anime or something, must of been really old.
Ninja Warrior has been one of my favorite shows for a while now. I like it cuz the obstacles are really hard and when the people try em' they usually end up in the water. My favorite stage out of all the stages is the first stage because 100 people try it out and only a few make it through. The first stage is always the most funniest one with how many people eat it while trying to beat it and most of the time they eat it in so many different ways some of them even being funny. The second and third stage are just amazing with hardly any humor and the fourth stage is just silly and almost impossible I dont think any one should be able to make it. I think the guy that did make it either cheated or got really lucky. The only thing that bugs me is that they talk japanese during the show with english subtitles. I say they should dub in english. sometimes I only read a little bit of whats going on and it changes to something else and it really gets confusing trying to read and watch whats going on all at once. If you havent seen Ninja Warrior you should really watch it.
I was just perusing the forums when I say Ninja Warrior. I just flipped. None of my friends know the show, BUT IT'S THE BEST. Man I remember one weekend G4 had a ninja warrior weekend marathon, it was 8 hours every night and I died of joy. Was so amazing. True that the first stage is so hilarious, but then it gets insanely serious, and really badass. It almost reminds of manga/anime, like one piece. Where it's really funny and jokes but then once they are somewhere big it gets serious. It's a great mix and works well. Plus you become super beast legend if you pass it. :00))
Noooo don't dub in english, subtitles is the way to go!
Dubbed English always sounds so...whack.
Anyway, Ninja Warrior rocks your jocks. Maybe even literally. To my knowledge there has only ever been one true ninja warrior in the existence of the competition and when he came back (8 years later?) he failed at the 3rd stage!
After that, the next closest was a fireman who took 3 months off work just to train for it. He got all the way to the 4th and final stage but slipped and missed the target by 0.1 seconds.
Some TV shows have tried to emulate the gruelling obstacle course (e.g. Wipeout) but they will never compare to the sheer hardcore madness of the Japanese. GANBATTE!!!
