Yes no kidding! I've always wanted to take part in this Ninja Warrior game show. If you haven't heard of it, you're a mountain tortoise.
I managed to get Chian San to join the competition as well, but we were allocated in different sessions for the qualifiers. CS's was on Saturday, therefore Momo and I went down to Bishan ITE to support him. His reporting timing was 11+am, but we had to wait until 1+ before he got his turn.
The qualifiers consisted of 5 stations:
Station 1 & 2: 25 push-ups, 20 box jumps
Station 3: Tyre obstacles
Station 4: 25 lifts of medicine balls
Station 5: Walking across a balancing beam
After you are done with all 5 stations, you make a final dash to the finish line, which consists of 3 boxes with 3 red flags. Therefore only 3 out of a possible 8 of each detail will be able to get a flag.
CS managed to grab the third flag due to a bit of luck. The guy in front of him was turned back by the official just as he was reaching the last flag because he had made a violation on the wooden plank and had to go back and redo it. Therefore even though CS made a tumble just before reaching the flag, he managed to secure a flag for himself. LOL awesome! But he did had a nasty fall. Injured his face as he fell flat on the muddy ground. But still a true warrior!
And that was Stage 1 of the qualifiers. Stage 2 was a live "confession" stage whereby the producers will ask every contestant some interview questions and you will have to answer it in front of the camera. It's a way for the producers to pick out the interesting ones to be featured in the show and to be selected for the 100 participants for the actual Stage 1 of Sasuke Singapore.
It's Sasuke Singapore! FINALLY!
Part of the obstacle course.
Gasp! 8kg medicine balls!
Superman should have done better. He was last in the group lol.
All queuing up for their turn to be on national TV!

The mud patch that CS made during his fall actually resembled a Lion! ROAR!
