An Asian Gameshow that Would Do Well Here

I don’t usually post clips or links out of the blue but StumbleUpon had me trippin’ with this one.

It is some type of Asian game show (Korean?). The contestants are all male and I think they have to read off a tongue twister and, if they flub it, a springy mallet coming out of the floor gives them some reinforcement. Hell, even if they get it right, they still might get some reinforcement. This idea would do well on Blue Collar TV or even mainstream reality TV.

I’ve seen this one before. That’s no damned fun. That last dude gets so worked up, then gets it in the junk. I’d like to know what the tongue twister translates to, because I’m sure in English, it doesn’t translate to ANYTHING that remotely rhymes.

FYI, it’s Japanese, not Korean.

They’re actually saying the name of the show. It’s something about “I’m not the messenger for a young boy” and something about a water-escape stage illusion. As you can tell, my Japanese is weak.

Very.

This one’s come up before. It’s more a comedy show that involves contests than a game show.
