Ryuhei Ueshima Looking back at the age of 60 “Dacho Club” Gag birth history “Ame Talk! Was the key | Smart FLASH[光文社週刊誌]

On August 19th, “Ame Talk! (TV Asahi), “Ryuhei Ueshima Celebration / 60th Birthday SP” was broadcast. At the opening, Mr. Ueshima greeted himself with “Ryuhei Ueshima, 60 years old. There is no masterpiece to say this,” but that is never the case.

As a proof of that, he showed off a number of masterpiece gag that everyone knows on this broadcast. I heard the story behind the birth of the gag when I interviewed Dacho Club (Ryuhei Ueshima, Jimon Terakado, Katsuhiro Higo).

First of all, the “hot water bath” is now synonymous with Dacho Club.

Ueshima “Originally, the (Takeshi) army corps did it at the” Hot water commercial “corner in” Super JOCKEY “(NTV).”

Teramon: But the corps didn’t say, “Don’t push, I’ll push.” ​​The corps just pushed. “Don’t push,” after “Super JOCKEY,” we took a hot water bath. When I started, I started by making it look like a story. “

Higo “We certainly made that pattern.”

The promise in the hot water bath “Don’t push. Don’t press it. “Never push” was completely systematized by “Ame Talk! It is said that it was when he appeared in.

Ueshima: We did a “hot water bath” once, and then the leader (Higo) explained while watching the VTR. Inside the VTR, I said “Don’t push. Don’t push.” Tetara “

Jimon “The leader explains,’I’m not here yet.'”

Ueshima “If I say’Never push'”

Jimon “The leader explained,’This is what you can push.'”

When Mr. Ueshima steps on “Don!”, Everyone around him jumps. This is also “Ame Talk! Was involved.

Ueshima: When I came up from the “hot water bath” during the rehearsal, I was angry, “Why did you push it!” Instead, I was flying alone. Then Mr. Kaji (Rinzo) (director and producer of “Ame Talk!”) Said, “Why don’t you go forward and do it with your feet so that you can see it easily?” So, when I tried it with one foot, I said, “This is better.” Now that everyone can jump, it’s easier to match with my feet. “

Jimon “Gag is born when we and the director are well engaged.”

Ueshima: For example, when I said, “This is the kind of food,” Mr. Kachi said, “If you put this on, it will be even more delicious.”

The gag “Please, please, please” was born from a program called “Nainaina” (TV Asahi) that was broadcast from 1997 to 1999.

Jimon: At first, I didn’t say “please, please”. When deciding who would do the reverse bungee, when I said “I want to do it” and “I can do it”, Ryu-chan said, “That’s it. If you say that, I’ll do it too. “Then everyone said,” Eh! Ryu-chan will do it? If Ryu-chan does it, I’ll give it up. ” world

Ueshima: That’s why I decided to do a bungee jump at the next location. At this time, I was standing by on the top and I said, “I’m scared and I don’t want to do it.” Then everyone from below Because I say “I’ll do it”. When I say “Then I’ll do it”, everyone says “Please, please”. Here, “Please, please, please” is solidified. “

This gag was also gradually solidified and completed during the recording of the program. Actually, it was Mr. Kachi mentioned above who was the director of this “Nainaina”.

We also heard the heartwarming stories of Ryuhei and Kaji when the gag was born.

Ueshima: “I was crazy about doing” please, please “at that site many times, but after about two hours, I couldn’t fly the bungee.”

Jimon: “Usually you have to fly. We sell reaction tricks. Moreover, the bungee prepared by the show costs millions of yen for location sets, bungee cranes, cameras, etc.”

Ueshima: So when I came down and said to Mr. Kachi, “I’m really sorry.” Mr. Kachi said, “No, please, it’s a big laugh, so it’s okay at all.”

Gag may be a masterpiece if everyone, such as performers and staff, solidifies it on the program rather than thinking on the desk.
