10 More Awesome TV Shows Nobody Is Watching
1. Physical 100
Bringing together one hell of a collection of charismatic, impressive, and downright superhuman beings in the pursuit of discovering the perfect human physique, what could have been a mindless showcase of strength, power, and speed quickly evolves into one of the most compelling reality contests of modern times before fans' very eyes.
Each quest demands the initial 100 supremely shredded, hench, or deceptively equipped competitors to push themselves to their absolute limit as their distinct strengths are put to the test in a number of often surprising and always arduous ways.
Those consistently mesmerising showcases of physicality are merely the tip of the iceberg, however. The contestants themselves bring bucketloads of uplifting charm, inevitably fierce competitiveness, and unexpected camaraderie as the extremely demanding tournament - one which also boasts a $240,000 winning prize - heats up.
But for all of the theatre - each contestant is forced to dramatically pulverise a plaster cast of their torso upon elimination - and undeniably jaw-dropping feats of athleticism and power on show, many still haven't treated themselves to the inspiring and highly addictive nine-part Korean reality epic on the back of it earning a sudden burst of popularity on Netflix part-way through its run.
Containing countless heartwarming occurrences, human mountains lifting boulders for two hours straight, and a constant reminder of just how resilient the human body and spirit can be on its day, Physical 100 is the sort of unique competition that needs to be seen to be believed.
