I once wrote to Andre Bouchet on Facebook one of Boyard's men that was Jacques. He was such a lovely person

This channel is a walk down memory lane! This was a cool game show!

I loved the french version of the show, which was much longer, I think 90 min. or 2 hours. The riddle master in the tower, who look like a really old man was a favorite of mine. I was always wondering if they would release the tigers of a contestant got left behind in the tiger cage when the door closed 😈 The music was also great!

I loved watching this as a kid and had no idea that the same producer also made Crystal Maze and Interceptor, which were also favourites. I also really loved Knightmare. Enjoyed the video!

Cant help to still have a crush on Monique, the tigerlady. In Sweden it is still going strong since 1990

Whilst watching the crystal maze video I was thinking: wow this reminds of that arena in the ocean thing, I click on the channel and bam here it is. Thank you

I've never watched Fort Boyard. This was after I left the UK in 1995. RIP Leslie Grantham. Leslie Grantham played Col. Mustard in the fourth and final season of Cluedo.

I remember first watching this on holiday on French tv in the mid 90s but the French version was longer with mini games in the middle which determined how long they got in the gold room
I remember when first watching the British version being disappointed
But having watched the episodes back on YouTube it is better than I thought and Melinda and Leslie were missed when they left - they were both very good
The snakes and spiders never seemed to bother Melinda

Crystal Maze was a main staple of my childhood but I only discovered Fort Boyard within the last 10 years. Caught it on challenge and loved it! Along with Interceptor, enjoyed that too!. Watching your video and finding out the same person created Boyard, Interceptor and Crystal Maze, well that makes sense why I enjoyed it so much. Also call me weird but I also love the fort Boyard soundtrack.

Good video, I used to like Fort Boyard & I still like it to this day. I even made my own version of the show with my own contestants. The only criticism I have is that some of the challenge names you used were from Fort Boyard: Ultimate Challenge, & the names for those challenges & ordeals sound like Mario Party minigame names, i'd have used the French version's names or my own names for those games. Still, a good video. I'd also like you to make a video on Jungle Run, I would very much appreciate that.

I absolutely loved Fort Boyard but I will admit, at the time it came out and my age at that time... Melinda Messenger was the biggest draw initially. The format was great and the challenges fantastic.

It's been a while since I thought of this~
Nice video dude!

I am nowhere near physically fit enough to do most if not all of these games. XD This really was crystal maze for fit, healthy people. All the contestants were typically professional bodybuilders, personal trainers, e.t.c.
