    Back in February this game show from Japan was in Wisconsin where they filmed a game show and she was in it..she is a logroller..my 18 yr old!! She has won many competitions as an amateur and this year she is going semi-pro. Her coach was contacted about the show and she was one of the ones picked to do it. (She attends the University of Wisconsin is why she is there) The Japanese contestants are popular there, a comedian (like Jim Carrey is what they said) another comedian and I think the other one is a singer. They werent paid to do it and have been unable to get a copy of the show but we found it online. It is in Japanese but has subtitles, although I think some things get lost in translation. It is about 40 minutes long and they focus more on them than the Americans but she is in it!! About 37 minutes into it they show her a few times and in the last race she is racing, the last person. She did what they call the boom run. Logs are laid out in a line and they have to run across them (about 6 or 7), it is a relay, then the next person goes, then the next. So cool!!! Here is the link if youd like to see it...

    I'm not coordinated enough to try that! She is very talented to be able to do that.
