He mentions that show in the description to his video[1]:

"Much credit must be give to the amazing Pitagora Suicchi ones for all their original ideas!"

Oh I didn't notice that. Several of the ideas are direct implementations of things done in the NHK show. For example the hammers pushing the ball uphill, the group of balls getting trapped in a pit while one rides over the top and continues along to later release them, etc.. There should be a design patterns book for this stuff. :-)

These fan-made videos are great but they also make me shake my head in wonder at the production quality of the original. Everything is so well constructed and precise.
