They're jackass-style physical comedy shows, and the competitors are all comedians. I'm also a little confused about why these video clips are all really really popular on American internet sites, but the comments are always how the Japanese are weird for liking stuff like this, and not that the Americans are weird for liking stuff like this.

L’obiettivo? Riuscire a mangiare un marshmallow appeso ad un filo mentre un elastico vi trattiene per la testa. La novità? In questo caso l’intera sfida è stata pensata al solo scopo di permettere ai partecipanti di mostrare a tutto il Giappone (ed a tutto il mondo, grazie a YouTube) le loro facce più buffe ed imbarazzanti. Credetemi: non avete mai visto facce più ridicole di queste. Pur essendo grata a questi piccoli grandi eroi, perchè ogni giorno strappano una risata a milioni di famiglie nipponiche ed ad altrettanti internet-dipendenti, a volte mi chiedo quale sia il premio in palio per convincere i partecipanti a sottoporsi a questo genere di torture. Secondo voi?
