I also believe that every version of the rolling log has fallen off the track at least once. Didn't the Rolling Escargot do the same once? We never saw it though which stinks because I never saw it... Also the log was also rolled the wrong way at least twice

Well "every version" is kind of debatable, the first version of the obstacle and the sandan rolling maruta have both fallen off the track, but the obstacles were built in different ways, if you're counting different builds it's thrown out completely since it didn't come off in 25, and I know this is just about Sasuke but neither ANW version came off the tracks.
And yes the Rolling Escargot did come off in 27, wasn't aired though

And yeah ANW actually made an obstacle that didn't break... SHOCKER! Anyways how can the escargot fall off the track...?!

It was something like the guy was falling off and he yanked it towards him enough to take it off the tracks. That may be wrong though, but this is what I remember.

I hope he's alright. also forgot to mention the opposite of Shingo Yamamoto in this case, Makoto Nagano never did fall on the altered cliffhanger (version 3)

This is somewhat odd but:
Since he started competing, in every tournament that divides by 5, Nagano has failed on a jump of some description (Jump Hang in 10, Metal Spin in 15, Downhill Jump in 20, Circle Slider in 25, and Swap Salmon Ladder in 30)
For a slightly less daft fact: Matsumoto Minoru is technically the most consistent contestant of all time, having reached the final stage on every single appearance...

Not sure if this is mentioned yet and it is a bit hard to explain but 5 start positions have been taken the farthest by one person (Once again it's Shingo Yamamoto). He's taken 7, 13, 20, 36, and 98 the farthest out of everyone. Nagano is 2nd with 4 starting numbers taken the farthest

Nagano is 2nd with 4 starting numbers taken the farthest If I understand correctly, you're referring to the person who's gone the furthest with the most different starting positions (i.e. who's had the best result with #1, #2, etc. up to #100). If so, below is a list of everyone who (as of SASUKE 30) has three or more "best starting position" records, provided I didn't screw it up: Yamamoto Shingo - 5 numbers (#7, #13, #20, #36, and #98) Nagano Makoto - 4 numbers (#61, #96, #99 (tie), and #100) Asaoka Hiroyuki - 4 numbers (#3, #34, #72, and #80 (tie)) Urushihara Yuuji - 4 numbers (#77 (tie), #88, #93, and #99 (tie)) Li En Zhi - 4 numbers (#56, #80 (tie), #90, and #92) Okuyama Yoshiyuki - 3 numbers (#24, #50, and #95) Tajima Naoya - 3 numbers (#29, #45, and #73) Takahashi Kenji - 3 numbers (#46 #66, and #84) This document may also be helpful regarding this specific subject, though it is subject to revisions upon future tournaments being broadcast.

Here's another one: The forum member with the username "SASUKE Scot (Logan)" doesn't know the difference between "fact" and "opinion."

I just knew Shingo has first on THAT account. Thanks for making it a bit clearer.

Jayawaira Umagirya Kankaanamuge Ranbindara is by far the longest name of any Sasuke competitor at 39 letters. He competed in Sasuke 11 he competed and failed the Rolling Log. He also only has 15 different letters in his name, but out of his 39 letters he has 13 A's in his name.

Kazuhiko Akiyama has the farthest distance between his highest and lowest numbers at 99 (highest 100, lowest 1). Koji Yamada is second with 94 (highest 95, lowest 1) and Shingo Yamamoto is third with 91 (highest 98, lowest 7). I had a list of these somewhere and there are quite a few over 70.

Double post? Oh and this may be obvious but Shingo Yamamoto is technically the first future all star to attempt SASUKE and the first all star to try the final stage

You might want to update your list with Kanno as second. (99 in Sasuke 24, 1 in Sasuke 27)

Everyone who has passed the Crazy Cliffhanger has trained on a replica, and beat it on their first try.
