Jun 21 2007Human Tetris
Ever wondered why Japanese television is better than anything else in the entire world? It's because they come up with ridiculous game shows like this. And by ridiculous I mean super genius.

I think Resident Evil the movie would have had better write-ups if they swapped the laser defence screen scene with this! And... swapped the zombies with girls from the Axe effect adverts... and swapped Milla Jovovich with me!

maybe if we had game shows like this in the US, Americans wouldn't be so fat. enough trivia and stupid chance games, we're all dumber than 5th graders ...we should try to fit through shapes cut out of 5" thick foam material. Yup, that's definitely the cure for obesity.

I invented more manly version of this. The wall is made of solid steel, has a lot of rusty nails pointing out of it, and there's an acid instead of water. Now this will make me rich!

OLD, but classic!!

Most of those things seem impossible for normal anatomy. Apparently the creators planned this show for midgets. Or acrobats. Or aliens. Yea, that must be it. Japaness game show creators are aliens.

It's old, but hilarious! Everyone should post it at least once a day. Yesbutnobutyes has like eight more (not all evenly funny, but inane at the least).

20. Cait - June 21, 2007 8:36 PM

TV shows, worthless coin counters, small handcuffs for phones-top 3 stories all from Japan ("taking over a world near you").
Bwahahaha...

#15, Most older Chinese and Koreans hate Japanese. Go back to touching yourself and stay ignorant to the world.
I saw this shit not too long ago, but I realized that it was old, but I couldn't find any more of it.
23. Josephepetto - June 22, 2007 12:42 AM
i cant believe how many people that view this seemingly awesome site refer to the Japanese as "japs"...kind of sad yknow?
24. Dan - June 22, 2007 1:00 AM

25. Nathan - June 22, 2007 5:25 AM
Shattered! Normally I find you are ahead of the game in bringing these kinds of things to the public.... but this has been doing the rounds for a month.

This wasn't funny the first time I came across it and it's not funny the 999th time either.
I know why don't you combine this and the dramatic gopher clip and then you'll have a doubly over played over linked over hyped piece of pointless video.
