Interestingly enough, they tried to get an Australian version of this show started but it never went on air... I do remember them advertising it on channel 9 or something though.

14 dead in kite festival

Fourteen people have been killed and 200 injured during an annual kite-flying festival in central Pakistan.
A seven-year-old boy died when an illegal kite string coated in broken glass slashed his throat during the Basant festival near Lahore.
Four people were killed by shots fired into the air, six kite-flyers fell to their deaths from rooftops and a young man died in a brawl.
Another two men were electrocuted after the metal rods they were using to catch stray kites caught on power lines, officials in Lahore said.
Most of the wounded had head injuries after falling from rooftops.
Lahore police chief Malik Iqbal said almost 600 people were arrested for firing guns in the air or using banned kite strings.
Thousands of revellers traditionally take part in "kite battles" to mark Basant, which heralds the start of spring in central Punjab province, with wild parties in major cities.
But the yearly death toll prompted the Pakistan Supreme Court to ban the festival in 2006, while radical parties say the celebrations - especially the kite-flying - are un-Islamic.
"We have held countrywide rallies to condemn the practice of kite-flying and the loss of innocent lives because of it." said Shahid Shamsi, a spokesman for Pakistan's main alliance of Islamic parties.
Rallies were held in the capital Islamabad, Lahore and all major urban centres in Punjab.
