Tetris? Shouldn’t they drop them off a building?

If the Tetris pieces were in the shape of a vaguely chubby humanoid reclining awkwardly on a couch, I’m in.

The clip here seems to be more like the contestant, dressed as … um … insects? … ride scooters towards the parallel walls. (45cm apart; pretty narrow.) That’s the easy part to understand. If they fall … um … what the hell did I just watch? Oh, they’re doing it again … and no, I still don’t know what I watched.
(That’s not meant as a criticism, mind you. I’ve seen segments of American game shows where I completely fail to grasp the idea too, but this seems entertaining even if it does look like a drug trip.)
