*Spoilers* yeah, im not kidding. This tournament was like one giant tornado that came out of no where and kicked all of our a**es (packing all the goods.) What was one of the biggest, if not the biggest shock moments for you when watching Sasuke 22? (Failures, not success) Okay, BESIDES Yuji's climax I feel like there were twice as many shockers as there were last year. I'm gonna have to say Levi's decsention from the 3rd stage, to the 2nd stage last year, to the 1st stage this year. I actually called it that he would face trouble at the slider, and what do you know he caught too much speed and was not getting a hold of that net. Luckily, David is a monkey so he held on, but Levi, you had me out of my seat. Nice single flip before the JS to show you didn't take the "no flips next time" caution too seriously. Bye Levi, I think you've had your time. Thanks to you and Terek for proving what a badass mofo the slider is. ..Having trouble deciding?

I'm going to have to say Nagano. I don't think anyone expected him to fail stage 1 for the 5th time hes ever failed there.

I still think Levi will be back, mainly because Nagano and Levi are very good friends and that it'd be kinda weird not seeing him in the future. Levi is still very young and has a lot of potential.
I was shocked to see Takeda fail the jumping spider. He's never failed it before I believe.
Nagano failing the Slider Jump Hang was shocking, but in a way I'm not surprised he failed it, because he HAS failed the Jump Hang in the past. Nagano doesn't seem to have too many problems with new obstacles, but this one got the best of him.
Shingo, OMG I couldn't believe what he did to fail. I mean, does he do it on purpose or something?

I'm gonna say a culmination of Nagano, Levi, and David. Not just how Levi and Nagano failed... which was already suprising (I still like Levi, even though I'm against the stunts), but that David beat them both and still failed as well. Shingo, OMG I couldn't believe what he did to fail. I mean, does he do it on purpose or something? Haha... true that!

Time got the best of David. I think he probably would've passed if he was a little quicker with the jumping spider.

I was told things like your jaw hitting the floor is physically impossible. However, that is in fact what happened when I watched Takeda fail the jumping spider. I mean, it's surprising that none of the All Stars made it past the first stage, but Takeda's failure was especially shocking.

Takeda just edges out Shingo. Nagano wasn't a surprise.

Wait...what happened to Shingo? My alarm was set to 5:15 PM instead of AM.

lol they moved the plank. He (very stupidly) set off without looking, in the direction it used to be. You could see him indicating this to the All Stars afterwards.

Wow...reminiscent of 20, I believe.

Wow...reminiscent of 20, I believe. 20 was a bit different, Shingo never really had full control of himself when he landed on the platform and he lost his balance in 20.

Yeah, instead of a straight line it's an angled plank up and to the side. Although at least he didn't literally trip like Akiyama.... Oh wait, yeah he did literally trip..

Takeda, after the all stars all failed I thought it might upset Nagano and he could slip.

Man, poor Shingo. But watch some people say he did it on purpose. Sounds like it was just carelessness again.

Nagano, Takeda and Levi for most disappointing failures but Shingo takes the cake for most moronic failure. If I were him, I'd move to a faraway island and never show my face around Sasuke again. Embarrassing...

Takeda for me also. The guy does not fail trampoline obstacles. It does not happen. But it happened. And we were all thinking that he was the one to reach the Final Stage.
I really hope Shingo's wife smacks him for what happened. C'mon.

Takeda failed the Jump Hang in Sasuke 10 if you recall. But otherwise, I'd never expect something like this to happen.....and now from my tally, 4 All-Stars have failed the Jumping Spider. Wow.
