Broadcast Date: Dec 9, 2007 Co-MC: Siwon
Siwon's question was on Mel Gibson hyung's scene on Lethal Weapon when he inhaled some gas and couldn't stop laughing.
Shin Dongyup says that a person who laughs a lot is a good person. The members start laughing uncontrollably at this.
★ Experiment A: Effects of inhaling laughing gas, Nitrous Oxide
➽ Siwon, Donghae, and Sungmin challenges the laughing gas first.
Eunhyuk cracks a corny joke which made the 3 members laugh so hard.
Siwon falls to the ground first, followed by Sungmin and then Donghae.
Siwon gets teary-eyed, Donghae has running nose and Sungmin was sweating from so much laughter.
➽ Shindong, Eunhyuk, and Yesung tries it out next.
Kangin asks if sad music can be played so that laughing can be discouraged.
But Shindong starts laughing so hard, followed by Eunhyuk who falls to the ground.
Yesung was just sleepy.
Eunhyuk couldn't stop inhaling the gas and comes back for a second round. He falls to the ground again after seeing Shindong's funny mask. He even wants to go for 3rd round even if he was already drooling.
➽ Leeteuk, Hangeng and Kibum goes for a round.
Leeteuk was actually sick at that time but he starts laughing so hard that he was also drooling.
Hangeng and Kibum had no reaction to the gas. They just felt a bit dizzy.
➽ Kangin, Shindong, and Siwon tries again.
Everyone starts laughing hysterically like drunkards.
Laughter finally comes to Hangeng at that moment and he also falls to the ground laughing.
Kibum kept on inhaling the gas at the background and finally he started laughing so hard too.
Everyone can't stop talking and laughing with the gas even after the experiment.
★ Experiment B: Is Laughter Contagious?
A hidden camera was staged during filming of Episode 4. Eunhyuk, Sungmin, Yesung, Shindong and Leeteuk were laughter instigators. The rest of the members were observed if they will follow the instigators and start laughing even if there is nothing funny.
First victims were Kibum, Donghae and Ryeowook. They were watching a weightlifting show and they started laughing at the scores. Donghae and Ryeowook starts laughing with them!
Second victims were Kangin, Siwon and Hangeng. Leeteuk was telling a really senseless story but then the others start laughing for no reason. The rest of the members then started laughing too even if the story is really dumb.
★ Experiment C: Laughter as Good Exercise
It was revealed that Eunhyuk also revealed his abs on the previous episode but it was edited out!!
Eunhyuk tested how much strength his abdominal muscles can demonstrate on his own.
Really cute laughing Elmo dolls were brought out and Eunhyuk started laughing heartily.
While laughing his abdominal muscles registered a strength around twice as much as when he was making an effort on it!
★ Experiment D: How to Prevent the Urge to Laugh?
>> natural salt >> pulling the neck skin/fat >> biting cheek fat >> pressing the pressure points in the body
Yesung tells the story of his scary vocal trainor who had a funny facial expression while singing a Brian McKnight song. It would have been great if he could have stopped himself from laughing.
A special tickling machine/tool was created for them but they didn't really use this as the members just held the tickling tools themselves.
Donghae and Yesung were chosen as the most ticklish among the members.
Yesung was given the natural salt and he stopped being ticklish immediately.
Donghae had his neck fat pulled by Shindong and the laughter stopped instantly.
Eunhyuk takes off his shoes and socks and everyone appears disgusted. Sungmin was the one who tickled Eunhyuk's feet with his hand. Eunhyuk bit his cheek fat and he was able to stop laughing.
They talked about a tickling punishment when a person's feet were applied with salt and a goat has to lick the feet.
The members were so funny thinking that one of them had to be the goat. Kangin said the goat looked like Eunhyuk.
Ryeowook's feet were applied with salt and he was so surprised thinking that the goat was already licking his feet. But the goat would not lick Ryeowook's feet. Then his pressure points were pressed and he stopped laughing.
............... Episode ❻ Balance ...............
Broadcast Date: Dec 16, 2007 Co-MC: Shindong
★ Experiment A: Age Test!
Stand on metal cans, close your eyes, and turn your head slowly clockwise. Turn 5 times without falling means your sense of balance is about 20 years old. 4 times means 30 years old; 3 times = 40 years old; 2 times = 50 years old; once = 60 years.
Magnaes Kibum and Ryeowook challenged first. Donghae and Siwon challenged next.
Hangeng and Leeteuk challenged last. Hangeng was the only one who would not fall down as his sense of balance was really amazing!
★ Experiment B: Balance Balls!
Siwon was able to bounce on top of the balance ball was really cool except that it makes Shin Dongyup look bad.
Leeteuk looked like he was doing a body gag on his turn.
Shindong's use of the balance ball was very different as it looks almost flat.
★ Experiment C: Restoring the Sense of Balance
A spinning machine is revealed! The challenge was to ride the spinning machine for 30 rounds and then walk the straight path and end with raised arms and feet in a pose for 3 seconds.
Eunhyuk was first to challenge because he said he was as cool as Siwon. Eunhyuk claims that Siwon treats him as a rival so Siwon tells him that he always puts himself in front. Eunhyuk replies mimicking Siwon's famous arm gestures! Eunhyuk was sooooo funny! ^^
Donghae challenges next and crashes into the members instead of getting into the end.
Leeteuk wants to add effects to his part: Sailormoon CGI while he is turning as he will be reciting the transformation mantra + Honey soundtrack as he runs on the path + finishing with a heart sign at the end.
But Leeteuk only manages to say the first line from the mantra then he bows in 90degrees while on the spinning machine. He crashes unto the staff while attempting to reach the end.
Hangeng challenged next and did the best as he had 6 years of ballet experience. He still fell in the end though hehe.
Shin Dongyup tries it out for 50 rounds. He had a plastic bag attached to his face in case he throws up unexpectedly. He was so funny leaving a message for his daughter on the camera while spinning!
Shindong and Sungmin tried it out and all failed miserably as well.
>> chewing on dried squid >> holding balls of aluminum foil >> spotting
Shindong tries chewing on the squid while spinning. He was able to walk (almost) properly because of that!
Sungmin tries holding the aluminum balls while spinning and he was also able to walk properly. He did complain that the belt was too big though saying it was probably because it was Shindong's size.
Leeteuk challenged to turn 30 rounds clockwise and then 30 rounds counterclockwise if it would restore his fluid balance but it did not work hehe. He was at least able to recite the start of the Sailormoon mantra.
The boys changed to ballet costumes and Heechul joined them. He was the only one wearing black shoes with their white tights! ^^
Heechul, Shindong, Hangeng and Siwon danced Tell Me though they were pretending to be reluctant at first since it was so sudden a request haha! Heechul's OMONA! is absolutely perfect!
Ballerina Shin Hyejin was invited to demonstrate Spotting. The ballerina chose Donghae as the best Super Junior member. Heechul complains that if he did not do the Tell Me dance then he would surely have been chosen!
The ballerina went on the spinning machine for 100 rounds first and then 300 rounds afterwards. She was able to walk straight afterwards because she did spotting all throughout. Donghae runs off with her in the end haha.
The members decide to try 50 rounds with spotting starting with Donghae. But he misses the beat and bows his head in the middle so in the end, he falls down while walking. The ballerina then changes her favorite member from Donghae to Heechul.
Hangeng tries it out next and succeeds. Siwon also gives it a shot but he also missed his target and bows in the middle. He still makes it to the end with extreme effort.
Shindong wonders if the ballerina will still be able to do spotting while turning on elephant nose. So she did 10 rounds and ended up dizzy like a normal person.
............... Episode ❼ Flexibility ...............
Broadcast Date: Dec 23, 2007 Co-MC: Heechul
☆ This is the first episode in which Kyuhyun is present ☆
★ Experiment A: Improve flexibility in doing the splits
고무밴드 Rubber banding the first two toes together
제기차기 10번 Juggle (soccer) a jaegee (like a hacky sack) 10 times with your feet
기마자세hitting the inner thighs in the horse-riding position
Kangin declares that he is ANTI of the show haha. He represents the audience and is out to prove that the proposed methods are not effective.
Kangin is able to stretch to 160 cm without the rubber band --> 200 cm with the rubber band.
Donghae tries the제기차기 method. He lovingly tells his Sungmin hyung that he'll do his best ㅋㅋ Sungmin tells him to just come down and its alright.
Donghae stretches to 198 cm before 제기차기 --> 201 cm afterwards.
Siwon is chosen for the 3rd method and Shindong says he is horse-Siwon.
Siwon stretches to 200 cm before getting hit in the inner thighs --> 207 cm afterwards
★ Experiment B: Enhancing flexibility and strength in your back
Shin Dongyup says that a man's strength is on his waist. Yoga trainer Jang Hanhwa was invited as an expert for stiff backs/waists.
She chooses the last person (Kibum) as her style. Kangin pulls down Eunhyuk's long pants again.~ just out of the blue.
The yoga trainer does the grasshopper position (as seen in the Korean film, Oldboy) and proceeds to help the members do it as well.
Yesung was up first. When he was asked to put his face on the floor, the members had all kinds of comments. They said he looked the best like that and that he should do that for the album jacket shoot. Leeteuk said that he has never seen Yesung look this good in the 6 years he has known him. When the yoga trainer raised Yesung's legs, his head started shaking uncontrollably.
Kibum was next since he was the teacher's favorite. The yoga trainer touched his hands and thighs so the members were all cheering wildly.
Sungmin tried it lastly and he was even able to do the grasshopper pose from the movie Old Boy! ❤
Donghae wanted to try it out after that too. Kangin pretended to help him. Kangin pulled off Donghae's long pants and Shin Dongyup joined in the conspiracy by throwing the pants away from Donghae!
★ Experiment C: Improving flexibility in reaching your toes
>> 문어춤추기 "Octopus Dance" >> 갈비뼈마사지 Massaging the ribs
Another age test! If your whole palm touches the ground, your body is in the 20's. If only the fingertips touch then body age is on 30's. If the space between your hand and the floor is within 10 cm, body age is in 40's and more than 10cm is in 50's.
Kangin is not able to touch the ground and was judged as having a body age of 50's.
Heechul had his palms flat on the ground so he was on his 20's.
Ryeowook was so cute asking is he should take off his shoes. Shindong outs him by saying it's because he wore shoe lifts! He s able to place his palms on the floor after taking off his shoes.
Eunhyuk challenges next. Kangin tips Donghae to pull a prank on Hyuk. Donghae pretended to trip and pulled down Eunhyuk's outer shorts while he was off guard ㅋㅋㅋ Donghae's revenge.
Ryeowook was so ticklish so they had to change to Shindong to demonstrate갈비뼈마사지. Shindong's sweater turned out to have a hole near the armpits haha!
The best player (farthest reached) wins a fishcake soup so everyone is competitive.
Siwon reached 4cm below his feet level S 10cm after doing his Octopus dance.
Kangin pleads the PD to let him pull down Siwon's shorts just once. While he is saying this, Kibum stealthily pulls down Siwon's shorts for him! Eunhyuk embraces Kibum for doing this.
Donghae reached 6cm above his feet level D 12cm below his feet level after having his ribs massaged by Eunhyuk!
Eunhyuk massaging Donghae's ribs had the Titanic scoring appearing incredibly ro
Yesung competes next reaching 16.5cm Y 15.5cm after doing his own version of Octopus style! He got worse because he did his own dance style haha! But still it landed him at 1st place.
Kyuhyun gets 8cm above his feet level. Meanwhile, Siwon attempts to pull down Kangin's shorts but apparently it was fixed to his waist.
Hangeng gets his ribs massaged by Heechul and was able to reach 17cm. He overtook Yesung's place and winning the fishcake soup!
★ Experiment D: Super Junior members try to contort into a 58cm x 53cm x 53cm box
2 young Chinese contortionists/acrobats demonstrated some amazing stunts. Hangeng acts as interpreter but the girls spoke too fast so Hangeng asked them to slow down (in Korean!).
One of the acrobat girls demonstrated how she can fit herself and cleanly come out of a the 45cm by 45cm by 45cm box.
Yesung challenged fitting himself into the a 58cm x 53cm x 53cm box. He succeeded (totally amazing) and the members starting pounding lightly on the box.
Siwon challenged next and though it seemed impossible at first, he was able to go in and out safely!
Kangin challenged next and he broke the glass!
............... Episode ❽ Tears ...............
Broadcast Date: Dec 30, 2007 Co-MC: Ryeowook
★ Experiment A: Testing the Slow-Motion Camera
Sneezing test with Shin Dongyup followed by Shindong.
Crying test with Kibum. Success!
Crying test with Yesung thinking about his parents. He was almost about to cry but then he suddenly stopped because the song lyrics mentioned jjajjangmyeon and he was suddenly hungry for jjajjangmyeon.
★ Experiment B: Acting out emotional scenes
Leeteuk says to induce tears, a love scenario between a boy and a girl is needed. Acting student Kim Sooyeon was asked to act out breakup scenes with the members.
First up was Donghae and they acted the breakup scenario from a Moment to Remember. It was going so well until Donghae cracked a joke in the end which made the members mad at him for ruining the moment.
Eunhyuk was next. He was being funny witty at the start. Kangin was messing around and crashed at his back. The acting student then blamed Eunhyuk for it and the scene turned out to be a real comedic scene at the end.
Hangeng was next. His words and eyes were really heartbreaking and he started to tear up. But then the tears suddenly stop.
Shindong replaced Hangeng in an instant. Shin Dongyup discouraged him saying that tears would not come but in fact they did! He was the only one who succeeded in making tears flow from acting with the girl.
★ Experiment C: Are provoked tears (peppers/onions etc) saltier than tears from emotion?
➽ Provoked Tears were collected~
Stage 1 of tear collection was from eating spicy stuff.
Leeteuk, Siwon, and Hangeng ate sushi with a LOT of wasabi. Hangeng was suffering so bad form the spiciness.
Ryeowook's reaction to the spicy sushi was really cute hahaha ^^
Stage 2 was from provoking the eyes. One team used peppers and onions and the other team directed air to their eyes (ouch)
Eunhyuk's tears from emotion measured 0.85 on saltiness. Eunhyuk's tears from provocation (onions, etc) measured 1.05%.
Ryeowook's tears from emotion measured 0.76 on saltiness. Ryeowook's tears from provocation (fanning his eyes) measured 0.95%.
This was when they showed how Leeteuk's hair can be styled to look like 1980's idols style to 1990's !!! ^^ EPIC EPIC EPIC!!!!
➽ Ryeowook & Eunhyuk Secret Camera
SERIOUSLY, this hidden camera stunt is TOO AMAZING. I still tear up when I rewatch it.
Narrating it wouldn't give this any justice haha … I wouldn't even try.
I think my heart crossed that point of no return after this episode.
Perhaps my first tears as an ELF were from that day I first saw this...
