Yet again the Japanese create something we never thought possible...

Personally, I find the development of heart-shaped watermelons far more productive (though far less amusing) than this:

ELECTRIC SHOCK!!!

Well I've gotten shocks from a few HP machines I've used...
Ahh Japan, truly is a different planet

I know Japan has a lot of totally insane game shows, but I think it will take quite some time before one manages to top this.

I would to kill some zombies with these watermelons...

That is one of the best things ever

And I thought the limits were near with 'hit yourself with a stick' and 'human tetris'. Why can't Australian game shows be like this? (Aside from the obvious)

Those weird Japanese folks, the world would be poorer without them :-P

Heart shaped watermelon.
Perfect present for valentines day?
And breast bowling is hilarious. If TV was like that here i would certainly spend more than one hour per month watching it.

I hate to be the bringer of bad news, but most of those so-called "game shows" aren't game shows at all, but one off skits on a late night variety show with a limited run (most such shows rarely run for longer than a year).
Now if you'd like an idea of something happening in 2009 and not 2003.... Wednesday saw an episode of "The God Tongue" (http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/god/) in which an H cup woman was quizzed on the size of her breasts and the smelliness of her sweat while the guy questioning her was being accused of being sexually arroused. At the end, he was knocked out by sniffing her arm pits.
Mmm. Fun.

I think that what he's trying to say is that weird freaky shit isn't the norm for japanese game shows. Its more like freaky weird shit
Also, H cup? Is that a woman with breasts or breasts with a woman?

Hmm, how to put this... the breasts entered the studio twenty minutes before she did. But yes, the freaky stuff is by no means normal. But like Tarrant on TV, all these odd clips ever do is give skewered impression of the state of TV in any particular country.
Actual game shows here are ****ing boring. Sadly, the Japanese really know how to take a great game show and ruin it. Two shows I used to enjoy were The Weakest Link and Who Wants to be a Millonaire (the UK versions of both). The Japanese versions? Rubbish. Weakest Link didn't even last one series. The host was too polite. It also suffered the same problem as WWTBAM and every single other game show here.
The people participating are not members of the public. They are tantless D grade TV "celebrities" who are nothing more than a waste of air and space. They get paid to appear on these shows and then win the money to further inflate their undeserved salaries. There is no fun in watching these idiots on quiz shows that supposed to give the general public a chance to prove themselves in whatever capacity.
I am not a fan of Japanese TV.

"Check it out Yug, it's a pair of giant breasts attached to a woman!'
