Yeah.. my thoughts exactly. Stage 2 was around 8 pm'ish though.. maybe with a small handful of people you could still get a 3rd stage and final? We'll know at some point.

When was the rain meant to hit? They got sprinkles here and there throughout the evening but I don't think they got poured on. The earlier estimates were the storms were coming in later around 3am'ish. I haven't checked to see if it started yet or not.

I fear the rain might have put a stop to that and that worrys me deeply for 28!
The doorknobs might have owned people big time too -soaking wet.

We know the second obstacle, which probably took out a lot of people and made stage 1 go a lot faster. I'm sure they were also rushing to try and beat the rain. Still, it's iffy. Stage 2 at 8 seems early, and if only say 10 people made it... that shouldn't take too long to get through. Stage 3 takes a lot longer but of course you have less people and they'll mostly loose early on. Final stage takes awhile to setup though...

Umm...people misread the title of the post.
The title is サードデモ終了. It means that the Third Stage Demonstration ended past midnight. Unless he's talking about some kind of protest happening during the taping that is. Which I doubt is the case.

Wait, if Stage 1 ended at 8, and Stage 3 started at 12, what happened during those 4 hours?

Sounds like a long stage 2 then. Then again, it means a stage 3 in the rain.

Wait, I've got a question, why on earth would it take a while to set up Stage 2 and 3 besides testers.
Also, why on earth would they wait 4 hours?

Stage 1 ends at 8. Stage 2 prep for cameras and such takes 30 minutes or so. Stage 2 demonstration for another 30 mins Stage 2 runs for 1.5 hours. Stage 3 prep and demonstration for an hour.
Comes out to about til midnight for runs to happen. Sounds reasonable.

I wouldn't think it takes a half hour to demonstrate... But with the way Stage 2 (assuming it's the same as 25-26) you have 3 obstacles to reset, the Slider Drop, Double Salmon Ladder and the Balance Tank, they also might adjust the Metal Spin so it's set up so every competitor grabs at the same place. So theres time between runs
