HISTORY: Jeux Sans Frontières (English: Games Without Frontiers or Games Without Borders) was a Europe-wide television game show. In its original conception, it was broadcast from 1965 to 1999 and consisted of teams from different European countries in strange costumes (often large latex suits) competing to complete bizarre tasks in funny games. The idea of the show came from French President Charles de Gaulle, whose wish was that French and German youth would meet in a series of funny games to reinforce the friendship between France and Germany. In 1965, three French men spread the idea of the games to other European countries. Teams representing France, Germany, Belgium, and Italy took part in the first edition of the show called Inter Nations Games. Each participating country hosted one round of the games, presented by the host broadcaster. Every game was umpired by one or two "international" judges.
