AVALANCHE
   This is Ball Run   

  Reach the fort at the top of the hill
  Get hit by a boulder
  Smaller rocks will also be thrown

The contestant has to get to the top of a steep uphill channel while avoiding giant boulders being rolled down towards them.
In the walls at the side are several gaps. To avoid a boulder, the contestant can try to hide in these gaps until it has passed. This isn't easy though, as there are guards waiting in the gaps to try and push the contestant back out. Once a contestant has left a gap it closes up, so they can't get back in again.

Played   10  times;  in episodes:
18, 20, 24, 31, 34, 37, 39, 41, 50, 106

Guards were positioned in each of the gaps in the passage from episode 24 onwards - after contestants were waiting in them too long during the first two playings.
In episode 34, contestants had a giant microphone strapped to their backs, as the following game was Karaoke.
