    They shouldn't have shown a clip of Gladiators as it just showed how poor this show is in comparison.

    It definitely favoured the men tonight those rings required an awful lot of upper body strength. Yes it should test their strength too but it wasnt a level playing field tonight.

    The rings are incredibly hard
    feels like a 2nd or 3rd round thing.

    Not when one obstacle required so much more upper body strength. Definitely favoured the men.

    The same course is used in the US and Japan and there have been female competitors who completed it there. Women can get through but they need to train to the spec of the course and work on strength training

    I've been watching the Japanese and American versions and ours seems easier. I'm not saying it's easy but it definitely seems easier.

    But certain obstacles favour attributes that can't be improved by training, like being tall.

    Then they need to compensate with strength training and jump higher

    Well, if you want to be a ninja warrior then a silly thing such as your own height shouldn't be a barrier you can't overcome!

    I'm just saying tall people have an advantage. Nothing more.

    These parkour guys have a huge advantage cause they are doing this type of stuff everyday.

    Have the top ten each week all finished the course? If not surely its unfair if someone who didn't complete the course made it through but someone who did, didn't just because of the heats they were in?
