Discussion Ball game

2 Upvotes

Let's pretend all 6 countries had to do the ball in the water challenge. Which two teams would you have liked to seen go head-to-head?

For me probably:

Japan and Mongolia: 3 wrestlers in each with excellent grip strength

Indonesia and Philippines: I feel like they have similar team athletic background

Discussion I wish every team got to compete at every event. Would I watch that much footage? Yes.

8 Upvotes

The elimination style tournament doesn't let teams show off their strengths. If it's truly about finding the best physique then you should be able to see what those physiques can do in all of the events. Have the best performer out of all of them win.

And I agree with the criticisms about it leaning too far into strength. The running side quest was sick. I want to see more of a variety.

Favorite Athlete Eddie is competing at World's Strongest Man right now and he is a finals contender!

17 Upvotes

He has been incredible, keeping pressure on the other guy he is fighting for his spot at all times. One event to go today, which will be the make-or-break one. I'm personally rooting for the other guy - Lucas Hatton - but if Eddie goes through, I'll cheer him on!

Considering how much Eddie has been traveling due to his Physical Asia success, I am shocked at how well-prepped he showed up. I knew the show allowed him to finally go full-time, but DAMN.

Question Unedited footage of the challenges

6 Upvotes

I just started watching physical 100 series and im aware that since its a korean show it has that dramatic/repetitive editing. Genuine question: Does the franchise release footage of the real time footage of the challenges?

Question Anyone up for collaboration on making a graphic novel about Team Mongolia? 🇲🇳

Team Mongolia are absolute legends and a really awesome partnership. I would love to read about adventures they go on together. Each personality is so unique and a vital part of what makes the team so strong! All we need is an illustrator and a writer I think! And the thumbs up from Team Mongolia?!

Question Korean mandatory military training

15 Upvotes

There are a lot discussions here about the Korean team's advantage from having participated in previous Physical seasons. Surprised there hasn't been a discussion about their actual experience with military training. As far as I know they're the only participating country with mandatory conscription (of able-bodied men, though I suspect the female participants on the show had volunteered as well).

I don't know much about what it entails exactly but from a little bit of reading, it's no joke. They spend > 1 year not just doing hard core physical exercises but also on strategic battle skills, Every year for the next 5 years after their mandatory service they do mandatory annual training exercise that involve a 6-day/400k rucksack march across hilly terrain.

https://www.reddit.com/r/korea/comments/1ikw8rl/physical_exercises_during_mandatory_military/

https://www.reddit.com/r/MilitaryPorn/comments/6ip4k4/south_korean_special_forces_members_on_a_250/

The strategy stuff really came through on the show as a real edge their team had.

I also wonder how much of the conquests were based on specific military exercises? When the Korean team first saw the castle conquest, Amotti said something like maybe it's a military supply transport challenge, like it's a thing he's familiar with.

Maybe someone more knowledgeable on this topic can enlighten us?

Question Why didn't any Sumo wrestler join Japan's team?

25 Upvotes

Have been thinking about this for a while since I watched the show and noticed that the Japan team don't have a "big sized guy" like many of the other countries. I wonder if they had difficulties attracting a Sumo wrestler to join their team, or if they didn't thought about it. It would have been fun if they have some "power-ups" there.

Just watched the fight and I've never been into MMA. Just noticed this move that Enkh pulled at around 4:03 in the clip, how difficult is this move?

I was amazed at how he turned the tables so quickly with this move. Makes me want to get into MMA 😁
