Every round I watch I'm taking mental notes of what its going to take. "First, decide who you would be and then do what you must do." ~Epictetus Link to comment
Denny Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I just saw the latest episode, it had some surprises but overall wasn't exciting. The two hour finale next Monday is going to be awesome though! -> Dead Athletes Don't Lie -> John Cleese on Creativity -> Digital addiction and the chaotic mind My Bucket List Link to comment
Tom Kenobi Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I just saw the latest episode, it had some surprises but overall wasn't exciting. The two hour finale next Monday is going to be awesome though! Looking forward to next week! I thought there were some surprises too, I thought it was fairly exciting, mainly because I was shouting at the guys who were getting too close for comfort with the countdown clock. There was a lot of "You'd better MOVE dude!" in my house last night, hahahaha. "First, decide who you would be and then do what you must do." ~Epictetus Link to comment

LessJos Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Insane show with an incredible final! I wonder what stage 4 is like. Holy! pre-AssassinClear eyes, full heart, can't lose!Twitter Link to comment
Tom Kenobi Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Insane show with an incredible final! I wonder what stage 4 is like. Holy!Stage four is a timed rope climb - something like 80 feet or so and they have to do it UNDER a certain time. Crazy.

Gainsdalf the Whey Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Stage four is a timed rope climb - something like 80 feet or so and they have to do it UNDER a certain time. Crazy.Yep, or the top of the rope comes loose and they fall to their doom (until they are stopped by the safety harness the are attached to).I love that show, so happy someone finally got past the damn Ultimate Cliff Hanger. That stage is just so much grip work, you basically have to train every day going up and down rock climbing walls with just your hands for 10 minutes at a time to get the grip strength to do it. I hope someone finally comes along who nails it.I was really disappointed in how lightly some of the guys took Stage 2. I feel like if they wouldn't have underestimated the obstacles there should have been 4-5 in stage 3. I'm really looking forward to seeing that guy who plays the japanese drums and had the fastest stage 1 time in the future, dude was awesome.

LessJos Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 EFFING Amazing! Stage 2 with .02sec left, are you kidding me?!?!?!That was incredible. Do it get any closer?Stage four is a timed rope climb - something like 80 feet or so and they have to do it UNDER a certain time. Crazy.Sounds boring. But I can understand after stage 3 what else is there to put out? Those obstacles were wild! I was really disappointed in how lightly some of the guys took Stage 2. I feel like if they wouldn't have underestimated the obstacles there should have been 4-5 in stage 3. I'm really looking forward to seeing that guy who plays the japanese drums and had the fastest stage 1 time in the future, dude was awesome.I thought the same thing. Seriously? That barrel was not a cake walk obviously but they jumped into it like it's an unmoving object. After experiencing that rolling bar or the four balls in the regionals and stage 1 you would think they know it's going to be extremely tricky. Also, I thought they are watching the guys in front of them going through stage 2. Didn't anybody see the little bump in the beginning?The drummer was fun to watch. I hope lots of them come back. There were definitely great stories and I loved the competitor profiles. Very "nerdfitness" what some guys have in their living room and/or backyard :-) pre-AssassinClear eyes, full heart, can't lose!Twitter Link to comment
