Hole in the Wall Vietnam (Vietnamese: Người đi xuyên tường) is a game show that first aired on 26 December 2014. The program originated in Japan and led to 44 international versions. Two opposing teams face five challenges. The winning team faces an imposing wall in the final round. If they pass the wall, they win the game.
Gameplay
[edit]The game consists of two teams of three people. A hobby, occupation, or a location may serve as the team names. Two lifeguards — one male, and one female — sit poolside. The contestants wear silver Spandex zentai unitards and red or blue helmets, elbow pads and knee pads. Contestants must jump through the hole without breaking it and without falling into the water. At least one foot must be in the play area at all times. A replay is shown after each wall has passed. If a wall is not cleared, a diagram is shown of the best method. The game consists of five rounds: Solo Wall, Double Wall, Triple Wall, Speed Wall, and the Final Wall.
Solo Wall
[edit]After each team is announced, the team captain enters the play area. After a three-second countdown, the wall is shown. If the captain fails to "clear" the wall, either by falling into the pool or damaging the wall as it passes, the team earns zero points. Clearing the wall earns ten points. The opposing team captain then tries a different wall.
Double Wall
[edit]The two non-captains on each team then compete on a Double Wall. If both players clear the wall, the team earns twenty points. If either player fails to clear, they earn zero points.
Triple Wall
[edit]The whole team competes in the Triple Wall. The team scores thirty points if all three clear the wall. If any player fails to clear, the team earns zero points.
Speed Wall
[edit]Depending on the type of challenge selected, a random number of players is chosen for the round. The wall moves twice as fast as before. If a team member falls into the pool or breaks a section of the wall, the team earns zero points. If they succeed, the team earns points dependent on the number of players in play. The winning team gets 10 million VND, while the losing team gets 5 million VND.
Extra Wall
[edit]If both teams tie, players compete in the bonus round to found the winning team.
Winner Wall
[edit]After four rounds, a number of members from the winning teams face the final challenge, which is also randomized. Before the final round, the winning team will make a bet ranging from 1 million VND to all of the winning cash. If they succeed, the winning team will earn bonus cash, depending on what they had bet. If not, they will lose the money that they used to bet. They also get a trophy at the end.
