The contestants on this game show are actually competing for a chance to be kicked in the ass.

No. Really!

It's being marketed as-- exercise? To TONE YOUR THIGHS are you fucking serious.

Okay, that's prize 1. Prize 2 is to be the fourth person in a line of four which a bike is going to jump over, in a stunt previously done by this guy with only three people. And Prize 3 is... the world's spiciest soup? The guy who brought it in had to wear goggles and a face mask to protect his eyes and nose.

OH. OH OH OH.

The last two rounds they were trying to WIN, and now they're trying to lose. Oooof course. Okay, so this is really a great game in terms of game theory. Five contestants are given three options. Then they take turns entering one of three corresponding booths, hidden from the others. The booth - or booths - left with one person in them signify the prize which that person has won.

But wait. It gets better.

The contestants state their preferences beforehand. And then they're given more information about each prize. And then they have to choose.

SO say you're the second person. And the first person and you both said "I want the gourmet billion-dollar steak." But then the amazing fish dish started looking better, so you change your choice hoping the first person didn't.

And then the fourth person goes 'Well Mr. One and Ms. Two both wanted the steak. I said I wanted the steak too, but that was a lie- I actually want the fish." And then he picks fish, and both him and Ms. Two are out of the running. 8D

(Mr. Five picked fish too. Steak and duck were consumed, with orgasmic-looking pleasure.)

And THIS round they're all trying to pick which one is the LEAST undesirable, natch. So far three have picked the bike stunt, and they're like WHOO we're safe, none of us have to do anything. And then Mr. 4 picked the spicy soup and now he's really worried he'll have to eat it.

Muahaha. And now Mr. 5 goes, "Well if EVERYbody's out, that's no fun, let's find one that hasn't been picked. I bet nobody's picked this! I choose ass-kicking!!!"

XDDD

Thus purposely dooming himself, AND unintentionally screwing over Mr. Hot n' Spicy over there. He assumed the other booths each had two people.

... Ow, that looked like it hurt.

Aaaand poor guy. Wow. He said it hurt his mouth just getting it near. ... oh lord. "[I'M GONNA TASTE THAT FOREEEEVER]"

... yeah alright. Cruel.

Oh, Japanese game shows. For a second I thought he was going to spit up all over the host.
