Everything’s Bigger in Japan: Japanese Baseball Catching Game Show

This is how you test your skills at catching a baseball. Actually lots of baseballs. Some of which are large. All while standing at a 45 degree angle. With a tub of water to catch you when you fall. On TV. In Japan.

Thanks to YouTube user JMX29 for the uploads!

Who is fellow named “Hiromi” in the 2nd clip who’s attacked by the giant? I take it he’s a former athlete and not a comedian.

Always good to read about baseball and its players, I’ve played since a kid..

Can I ask though - how did you get this picked up and into google news?

Very impressive, is it something that is just up to Google or you actively created?

Obviously this is a popular blog with great data so well done on your seo success..
