As bad as Isaac is I think that guy is probably worse, Isaac may be self centered ego maniac but at least he's not racist too I wonder if ITV heard about this and will ban him from future tournaments... BTW GlobalNinjaFan , got proof? Oh no. They won't ban him. This was a fleeting comment made on a facebook post completely unrelated to the show. He was last man swimming, and he'll definitely be back. Even though I admire a family man with about six kids doing a show like this, I don't like his ignorant attitude to the Japanese.
And Rider, I don't think he was trying to be racist. He also referred to ANW competitors as "yanks".

Here is the exact post. Btw, this was all in response to a post about the recently released All-Star training regimens...

What an idiot, I hope he doesn't set foot on an obstacle course ever again...

Also while the latter is not really offensive to say it like that definitely sounds like he intended it derogatorily...

To be perfectly honest, I doubt he would even clear stage 1. Clearing the 1st stage of Ninja Warrior UK is one thing, but Sasuke is on a whole other level.

If you want to see his "Super amazing, definitely not filled with slip-ups and was gonna time out anyway" last-man standing run, here:

He definitely sounds like one of the dudebros full of themselves who lets any small degree of success go to their head and they spin it like they're big s*** based on his run (and the clips of his other runs they showed there)

Essentially, his whole demeanour just screams cocky. If you watch him, he just swaggers up to each obstacle. He's just like Isaac. He did the best in a particular season, so now he wants everyone to believe he is "the stuff" not thinking anyone cares about the way he acts outside the course.

By then, he knew he was gonna time out, so he just decided to try and look tough in his final thirty seconds. Perhaps he thought he didn't need to swing from the Salmon Ladder bar, and that his ego would carry him through the obstacle?

Especially when it is unnecessary, like that was.

Lol! {Hush}Just from me to you guys, there was a lot of shouting, screaming and ego-mania backstage on S2, which was pretty infuriating when you're trying to stay calm. Didn't happen at all in S1, was a constant annoyance in S2. I think some of you guys saw the Final in person, too? Moving on (topic).. GlobalNinjaFan, the problem with EventCity looks like the ceiling height. It is <7m in most places and <9m at max. :/ It's in the same venue again, I believe. Interested to see what changes are made to the format this time.

Interested to see what changes are made to the format this time. Yup, I was there And yeah, I didn't think of ceiling height at the time, mostly because (so far) stage 4 and 3 have been irrelevant.
Thanks for sharing the info, and hope you smash the Unstable Bridge in series 3!

Not impressed by his acts or ability on the course.
43 seconds to get across 4 ropes half the size of stage 2 in vegas and he is saying he is better than the sasuke competitors? Let him go, he would be surprised!

Let him go, he would be surprised! To give him credit... he completed the heats, semis and stage 1 of the final in the fastest time, having never competed on a ninja course before. Still, his conduct is unacceptable.

For those interested... yes he technically did best in season two, but he didn't even hold a candle to the season 1 people. 4 people made it onto the Unstable Bridge in season 1, and one of them, Tim Shieff, the Last Man Standing did WAY better than him. For one thing, the only reason only 3 people cleared stage 1 in season 2 were due to the Paddle Boards in stage 1, which unexpectedly wiped out 9 out of 15 finalists.
