Format

Qualifying rounds

• Blob: One or two people weighing two and a half times the person's body weight jumps from a tower onto an inflatable blob. The aim is to get as high as possible.
• Knockout: Contestants roll down a ramp wearing an inflatable ball suit, and they must knock over as many bowling pins as they can.
• Skimmer: Two contestants at a time go down a 14-meter slide on body boards. The aim is to get the finish line the quickest.
• Jump: Two contestants at a time go down a 14-meter ramp on body boards. The aim is to achieve the greatest distance in the air.

  The Final: Swing to Win

• Round 1: Swing from a 9-meter high podium into a target made up of 150,000 table tennis balls coloured by lights. There are five colours, with each colour getting smaller but representing more points. Purple is worth 1 point, white is worth 2, green is worth 3, blue is worth 4 and yellow is worth 5 points.
• Round 2: It's the same as before, but this time the bullseye is moving across the target.
• Round 3: It's the same as before, but this time all the coloured circles move around and the yellow bullseye is worth 10 points.
