Ninja Warrior




If you have never watched Ninja Warrior, these pictures may have less significance, so I will explain. Ninja Warrior is a show on the G4 channel on cable. We like to watch it as a family and sometimes catch the 6PM back to back episodes. It's a strange show to say the least, but it's funny and the kids really get into it. It is a Japanese show and they speak no English. There are English subtitles at the bottom of the screen, but of course only Caitlyn can read those. Every six months, 100 challengers from all over the world come to attempt the Ninja Warrior obstacle course. It is divided into four stages, and only one person has ever completed the whole thing. The obstacles are insane, and in my opinion, impossible, hence the name Ninja Warrior. One of the obstacles is called the Spider Walk. The challengers prop themselves up between two slippery walls, and "walk" to the other side. If they slip, however, into the absolutely disgusting pool of muddy water they go. These pictures were taken of Caitlyn's attempts at recreating the Spider Walk in our hallway. As you can see, most everyone got in on the action, except Corey and I. I didn't attempt it for obvious reasons. I could break my neck, or even a leg! Corey wanted to, but sadly his short little arms and legs did not reach. So if you ever wonder what the Knutson Klan does in their spare time, now you know! We are secretly training the kids to become the next Ninja Warrior! Love you all, and thank you to God Almighty who has for now blessed us with these.
