SKIPPING STONES
Dragon God Pond
 | Cross the pond via the stones |
 | Fall in the water |
 | Not all stones are safe |
The contestant has to get from one end of a long pond to the other, using the stepping stones spaced across the water.
All of the stones look identical, but only some of them are fixed in position. The other stones aren't supported and will sink when trodden on.

| • | Skipping Stones was the most popular game on Takeshi's Castle - not only with the viewers. The crew liked it because the fails looked spectacular without causing injuries! |
| • | The stones were originally flat. From episode 10 they became a more rounded shape. |
