Bob Sapp Meets Downtown
Professional fighter Bob Sapp made a name for himself in Japan a few years ago. With his success in fighting came the endorsements. There was a time when you couldn’t watch TV without seeing a Bob Sapp comercial.
He even appeared on the popular TV show Gaki no Tsukai. In this episode, they do a bit called “Shichihenge.” Here’s how it works: the TV show staff are having a planning meeting and it’s up to Bob Sapp to make them laugh through a series of seven gags. Each time a staff member laughs at a particular gag, they have to cough up 1,000 yen.
Seeing Bob Sapp scare popular TV personality Hamada Masatoshi was the highlight for me. His Kansaiben wasn’t too bad either.
I’d like to thank the person responsible for uploading and subtitling these clips. I think this person did a great job of translating the core Japanese meanings.
