Takeshi's Castle

Japanese television scares the holy hell out of me! I'm glad I got that off my chest. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy watching the english versions of their shows such as Takeshi's Castle (MXC on Spike TV) and Iron Chef. Watching them in Japanese is just too surreal for me (This version is dubbed in Spanish). What I find surprising is the number of people who compete.

Could someone please tell me what exactly they are competing for in the line of prizes.

Here is a complete episode of Takeshi's Castle
