Well, what do all of you think is the most difficult Unbeatable Banzuke event ever? If you're unfamiliar with this show and/or any of the choices, check out this link so you can vote on this. IMO Hand Walk, Quick Muscle, and Like a Pierrot are the most difficult due to needing to possess extreme balance and endurance...I have a good amount of both, but nowhere close enough to do well on any of these. BTW, I think that Kangaroo would still be extremely difficult for me despite being able to hop on a pogo stick until I get tired...this shows how I have decent balance, but not the best endurance (the most I've ever done on a pogo stick is probably near 1,000 hops before stopping due to becoming tired; by brother, on the other hand, my brother would probably do somewhat at Kangaroo due to the fact that he's already done approximately 14,000 hops on a pogo stick after 3 hours nonstop---I don't know how he counted that high, but that is definitely pretty extreme endurance!!! ) Anyway...you are allowed to vote for 3 choices. How generous!

I voted for Hand Walk (for obvious reasons -- having to do a handstand, walk while doing it and competing on a obstacle course while just trying to hold your balance is insane -- especially with Hand Walk III), Kangaroo (aside from Giant Ball but that was only shown once) it's one of the few regulary shown events with no winner constantly, and to our knowledge still doesn't have a winner and I wouldn't be surprised if it never gained a winner up to the show's cancellation, and Ottoto 9 because that's the most mentally draining event, there's a reason that only has one winner.
Honerable Mentions: Sponge Bridge, Seesaw 60, Neko de Drive, Banzai 90

Hand Walk for the amout of sheer strength needed.
Ottoto 9 because of the crazy concentration and skill.
Neko de Drive because of the high amount of luck, stength, and skill required.
Other tough ones:
Bamboo Derby
Brain Panic
Any target event

Honerable Mentions: Sponge Bridge, Seesaw 60, Neko de Drive, Banzai 90 I believe Hand Walk 3 is cleared because in certain Banzuke commercials, they show an unseen Hand Walk obstacle. What really annoys me is that in the introduction, they show quite a bit of footage from Super Rider 4 and 5. I wish G4 would stop being cheap and make more Banzuke episodes so we can see all of these events!!

I know it gets defeated at some point, but the way Banzuke isn't a high priority anymore (International Ladies Show -- can you get anymore perverted?) I doubt they'll produce anytime soon -- Rome Kanda (Kei Kato) was used for a different network ffs, that's an issue there. And I get what you mean on the intro, despite it's awesomeness, I saw five instances (six if you count Strong Mama, but it was shown but I don't remember whether that one contestant shown was shown in full) where I know for a fact it wasn't shown AT ALL. This is the one shown in commercials along with the one above The third and fourth ones I have no clue, I assume more Hand Walk and Super Rider "spoilers". And the last picture is the last shot of the intro before the logo. And don't get me started on the background with Rome and the random event wheel.

The third picture is the last obstacle of Super Rider 2 (he's wiping out bad).
The first one is confirmed to be Hand Walk 4, I found a site that I'll post later.
Speaking of Sponge Bridge, they really went way too far with Sponge Bridge 2 and no one cleared so they had to tone it down for Sponge Bridge 3.

Here's the link: www.geocities.co.jp/Hollywood-Kouen/2596/kongo/ranking/onair-rank.htmlBasically, this is an episode guide of the "second era" of Banzuke, which took place during roughly the last year and a half of the show. Some events we've already seen such as: Like a Pierrot Ghost, Nakama, The Amazing Road, and the new Banzai 90. Others are versions of classic events we haven't seen: Hand Walk 4, Super Rider 5 (I can't find 4), and, believe it or not, Neko de Drive 2 ( Jesus and Mary must have cleared the first version). And the rest are all the classic target events and few never before seen challenges like Super Dog (A person and his/her dog run a course together) and Body Clock (which is just an extended version of the Viking Obstacle). It's unlikely we'll actually see any of these events, but reading about them is the closest we'll get!! (I'll make this a new thread so it's easy to find.)

The last obstacle of super rider 2 was where you ride down the ramp and through the paper circle and land. Pretty sure only one guy made it there (unless G4 completely covered up runs) and he made it there twice, first time he tried to ride it through and his brakes felt off so he stopped himself, second time he rode down and then stopped, balanced on his back wheel and used the front to break the screen, then he jumped through from that posistion EDIT: It doesn't have the first two obstacles on it and quality sucks.. but here

Well, there's a considerable amount of difference in just moving on a pogostick for fun, and doing it on a obstacle course like that. Remember the one kid on one episode? Obviously he had the most experience on it, but ultimately he still failed the last obstacle, and he's the only one to even try it (to our knowledge but G4 makes it seem like they go through hell and back with the editing. Yeah, when you splice like they do, it's difficult, but that's a different thread.

Kangaroo is easy regardless.
I tried a few things on my pogo stick after watching it, not very difficult, Only 2 of the obstacles are tough.

I saw a guy make it to the final obstacle in kangaroo and another kid(who was like 10) make it to the Neon Grid.
