Also, did they show chosu?

Octopus wasn't shown at all, Hang Glider and Sculptor were shown in montage (Log Grip, 3rd step, if you're wondering) No Chosu, Washimi, Kobayashi, or Kevin shown, if I recall correctly.

Even if TBS didn't show Kevin, I bet G4 will show his run somehow.

Washimi was there (eyewitness account), Shinji was definitely there (you could see him saying good luck to one of the All-Stars, plus he's around Nagano in a few shots), and Kevin was there (obviously). However, all three runs were cut.

Washimi must have been 95 then. Why on earth would they cut him?

The only thing I could think of would be time. But then again, they also only digested Kongu and Kawashima. It makes me sad that they didn't show him. Any guesses on where he could have failed?

Who knows. Anywhere, really. It baffles me that they would cut a popular competitor like him and also not show Kenji Takahashi's run. Then again, they've been cutting Kobayashi for years.

I was gonna ask about Takahashi myself because last I checked, he was confirmed. While I didn't get to see it live like some here, I'd be surprised if they didn't show him either.
But true, if Kobayashi can be cut, then who knows....

Takahashi got the digest treatment right after Brian's run. He failed the Jumping Spider...again.

Wow, that's too bad. After getting to the Third Stage his first 3 times, he fails the First Stage his next 3 times. I really hope Takahashi steps it back up next time.

Takahashi and Kobayashi are terrible on the trampolines.
It surprised me than Miyagi who was no.1 in the qualifiers was the only not to pass that obstacle aswell...
BLEH!
Had high hopes for him, but when I saw his shaved head that kinda ruined it XD
Was favorite out of the qualifiers was sharpie man (Forget his name) I liked that boy with the cliffhanger in his closet to.
Or maybe it was his room? ionno

Seeing how Miyagi did on the Jumping Spider, I'd beleive it that he was trained by Yamada.

Seeing how you're insulting some truely awesome competitors, I'd believe you were trained by a nazi.

I'm assuming not very well, and that he failed in a typical fashion, otherwise it would've at least been covered in a digest. (i.e. if he did some spectacular dive into the water, then it would've definitely been in. )
