Ninja Warrior UK has officially launched its adventure park in Swansea today The new leisure facility has opened up within part of the old Toys R' Us, and is a 24,000 square foot facility.
All it takes is one step inside the place and you'll see the familiar sight of the popular ITV show, which this year returns for a sixth series. Just like the primetime favourite it has obstacles to climb, balance, jump and swing across. There's an inflatable section with tunnels and battle towers and of course there is the famous warped wall – three of them in fact at different heights catered for different age groups.
Well-known football pundit Chris Kamara, who co-hosts the show together with Ben Shephard, attended the new Parc Tawe Retail Park venue to see it for himself and he gave it his full approval. Giving his thoughts on the new Ninja Warrior facility in Swansea he said: "It's unbelievable! It's as good as it gets. The warped wall is, well, if it's not identical it nearly is. It's so good. The obstacles are identical to the real thing to what you see on TV. Obviously the course is smaller because the scale of Ninja Warrior is incredible but this is a nice mini version. I haven't tried it out myself because I'm old and decrepit. But this is the 10th one I have opened out of 15 around the UK and there could well be by the end of next year another 10.
