Don't you just love some of the things the Japanese get up to on TV?

Like this video, for instance. Who else would think of strapping pork chops to the heads of little girls and putting them in a tank with a monitor lizard?!

I don't get it. Is this supposed to be some kind of a competition or what?

Of course it's a competition. The girl who keeps her head inside the tank the longest, wins.

Actually the monitor lizard was probably more scared of the children than vice versa. A 2 metre-long monitor lizard once ran away from me (and I can tell you that I was *extremely* relieved - if it had decided to walk towards me it would have been me doing the running away).

How did they run? They haven't got any legs!

I used to think the Japanese were mad for the things they went through on their game shows, then I saw "I'm a celebrity".

Kangaroos testicles anyone?
