I was born to slay this beast! Power!
I'm so proud that I served my country. And I'll win this game.
I can set an example for my sons.
I want to do it in my father's name.
That's right, exactly. I'm short...
but I'll be the champion.
Power!
- Brazil! - Mexico!
Careful, Muscle Samurai!
Come on! Yes!
I'm very excited. It's a giant video game!
- I'm in Super Mario Brothers! - It's very cool, right?
- It's Super Mario Brothers. - It's Super Hyper Ultra Mario Brothers.
My name is Shoji Nakayama.
I'm 37, from Fukuoka Prefecture.
The Japanese revere samurai as heroes.
I add "muscle" to that, calling myself Muscle Samurai.
As a participant representing Japan,
I'm hoping to bring Muscle Samurai into the global limelight.
At the end of this Ultimate Beastmaster,
surely only I shall remain.
Power!
- Can he hold on? - There, he's got it!
- Looking strong! - Come on, Muscle Sam!
He's going for the Thruster...
Oh no! What happened? He couldn't make it!
- He lost his wig! - Oh, he lost his wig!
What is happening?
For a samurai, losing this hair amounts to ritual suicide.
It is a samurai's life.
I served in Special Forces for four years, safe and sound.
I've learned a lot. And I'll do my best.
No regrets. Go, Korea!
- Yeah! - He made it!
Yeah! Go, Mexico!
Ah! But now he's fallen!
He did it! The Brazilian did it.
Very good.
Go...
I wanted to take everything I could. I'll get everything.
I want all the points.
Anderson, now that the Brazilian is ahead, do you hope the American falls in?
- No, I'm not hoping the American... - You are kidding, right? I am.
I'm not hoping the American falls in the water, no.
The Olympic swimmer Ed Moses fell off.
Now he's going to use his swimming techniques in the Beast's blood.
Exactly.
I grew up in a slum. We were very poor,
and it was a difficult childhood.
Capoeira gave me an opportunity to believe in myself.
I am one of the best athletes for this competition.
She fell off!
What is this?
She made it there, but slipped right over!
- She got too far up there! Exactly. - She slipped.
I'll tell you one thing, her feet got further than she expected.
That was a good jump!
My father left us when I was 12.
I was very upset and started eating a lot
and became quite chubby.
One day, I realized I had to change something in my life
and should not give up
but go my own way.
I am the Ultimate Beastmaster.
Germany!
Directly into the Energy Coils.
Yes.
And now he is slipping.
He slipped. He didn't know where to go next.
I really wanted to complete this, but it will still work. I think I'm okay.
I saw that it's difficult, requires a lot of concentration, a lot of precision.
It is a samurai's life.
I'll give the second stage my all.
Power!
I want to show my mother with this how important she is to me,
but I also want to show my father what became of me.
This is going to be hard. Abort!
Almost in the blood!
Thanks to my calisthenics and free athletics workouts,
I am used to moving my own body weight very fast
over different obstacles.
And now a controlled jump onto the Dreadmill.
No, that was not a good jump.
I should have run up the tube faster, then I might have made it.
I hit the Point Thruster,
but I should have made it further.
The thing I'm most proud of doing? Having my son.
"A father is strong."
I wanted to show everybody how to break yourself out of the shell.
My son, you didn't see that, okay?
- All of Mexico's guts there! - Yeah, he made it! Yeah!
I had to make it. There was no other way.
I had to do it out of pure pride!
- Whoa there! - Careful, Muscle Samurai!
Careful, Muscle Samurai!
Unfortunately, my landing just didn't go well.
At least I was able to save my topknot.
He is spinning as if he had drunk
a lot of bottles of whiskey.
Anderson, now is the time.
Now is the time to separate children from adults.
Very well. Can I speak? Very well.
Don't be sad. It means that the Brazilian has a chance to continue leading.
Let's go, Johannes!
Go for it, bro.
- Look at his face, Anderson. - He's focused. His dad is German.
- But he is Brazilian. - Take a look.
He managed to jump! Very well! That's great!
Holy crap, man. Unfortunately, Johannes fell, guys.
- What did he do? I don't get it. - Oh, boy...
I'm happy to take Brazil ahead. Again, the leadership is mine.
The American is going to have trouble taking it from me.
He won't be able to.
Come on, Angie!
All of Mexico's with you, girl!
- Mexico! - Mexico!
- Look at Angie, my girl! - That's another 20 points!
- Ay, my girl! - No!
I lacked on that jump, I think, and I couldn't grab it hard.
But if this is God's will...
I am confident. As I was first on Level 1
and first on Level 2,
I hope it's the same now at Level 3.
I think the important thing for you is the start.
Imagine both of us in the final.
Let's show them what Koreans are.
Cheer for each other.
I am about to make it.
I want to take this thing home to Germany, as you can see.
I would hate to fail just before the finish line.
He is holding on! Yes, David!
- I'm thinking he is not going to make it. - Me too.
He did it! Wow, he shut my mouth up.
I'll never talk about a German again.
- Me neither! - Those Germans just shut my mouth up.
- It is a matter of centimeters. - Lie down, man.
And he is falling!
He couldn't hold it!
- And he is falling! - He fell!
He had the rope in his hand,
but he could not hold on!
Here comes Jinbong Lee!
- Go, Korea! - Go, Korea!
Jinbong!
- Yes, a good start. - Very good.
- And now... - Grab it!
It's harder...
than it looks.
Lee Koohun, here he comes...
It's good to be Top 5.
I want to see what I can do on Level 3.
And now...
- Very good. - Koohun Lee.
You shouldn't wait for the jump point.
This motivates me to have a great performance.
If I am here, I will take this title to Brazil.
I need to take it to Brazil.
Ladies and gentlemen, now for our Brazilian!
Brazil!
We are a bit goofy,
but that's because we are rooting for our Johannes,
who has qualified in the first position.
And folks, he needs to get to the Prism Strike ropes.
The last of the Mohicans.
Okay, Anderson. I'm turning around. I can't watch.
- Oh, man... - I'm not watching. I'm going to hide.
I can't watch, either. I'm going with you.
Let's see how they react.
- Let's go, Johannes. - Look at him, man.
- Let's go, Johannes, for God's sake. - He left!
- Easy, easy, easy. - Let's go!
I can't believe it!
I slipped in the end.
I slipped, lost my balance at the time of the jump.
That sucks.
- Let's go! - Let's go, Germany!
Come on, David! Pull yourself up!
Let's go, David!
Yeah, David! Pull yourself up.
Come on, David!
He will get the next points.
Eight, seven, six...
David Manthei won $10,000!
David!
I won. Unbelievable!
I am so happy!
Germany!
It is as if my heart was beating in my fingertips.
I am Beastmaster, and want to become Ultimate Beastmaster.
