![]() For Episode 8, the boxing gloves are replaced by shoes and the obstacle is so named, "Butt Kicker". This obstacle has only been successfully completed seven times in aired episodes so far (by Episode 4's Gwenisha Robinson, Episode 6's Jessica Bertoni and John Henson(seen crossing it in episode 11), Episode 9's Katie Mayfield and Eddie Shapiro, and Episode 10's Sam Mohan and Phil Somerville). The next obstacle is the "Sucker Punch", a wall covered in boxing gloves which punch out at random intervals to knock the contestants into a mud pit. Starting in Season 2, the first part of the course is now a platform (or platforms) with unstable parts, leading to an easy wipeout (ex: Rug Pull). (In Episode 9, the ramp was replaced by a water slide with lots of pillars (The Human Pinball). ![]() Though the items vary (doughnuts, rectangles, etc.), they fall over easily, dumping contestants into mud or water. ![]() The first part of the course usually consists of two sections of stacked items which the contestants must cross, occasionally separated by an additional obstacle. If the contestant fails to pass a particular obstacle, they only have to swim or crawl through mud or water to the next one.Ĭontestants first go down a ramp to a line of floating platforms (not really an obstacle but many contestants fall into the water here). The course consists of four distinct parts, the second and third of which are constant. Only the twelve (16 in Episode 9 only) with the fastest times move on. In the first round of the competition, 24 (32 in Episode 9 only) contestants attempt to qualify for the next round by passing a four-part obstacle course.
