By the way, if you guys were curious about WC info: Spoiler 15 wild cards for a total of 90. To my understanding, the wild cards were Brent, Idoko, and Rob Moravsky, and 12 girls.
EDIT: Flip Rodriguez was there, I imagine he ran. Drew was not there.

I call BS on Brent getting a Wild Card spot. Earn your spot or don't show. Only Girls and participants over 50 should be getting WC spots unless they're giving it to the participants who finished just outside the top 15.

When you say the rock climbing trio, are you referring to Brian A., Nin-jesus and Geoff Britten?

And why not Shaun Summers too? Let's hand out 500k to everyone..... You should earn your right to 500k not get wild carded in and then beat deserving people for it.

He was in Vegas bc he did earn his spot. That's why I was asking if he was one of the Stage 1 completions.

He's a beast and if he earned his way there. them he deserves it. If a wildcarder shows up and gets the money it'll be so unfair to all those who earned it. It'd be like if Sasuke made stage 1 and 2 easy enough for Ryo to get to stage 3 again. Congrats a 105lb kid can hold up his body weight the easiest but cant lift his bodyweight off the floor and over his head.

This post has more incorrect than it does correct.

Are you sure Brent got a wildcard? The night of stage 1 I saw a twitter pic of Kacy with a towel around her neck and Brent standing by her in jeans with a "Team Brent" shirt on. The pic was deleted shortly after I saw it and I hadn't save it. I guess it's possible he had already ran and changed clothes.

He was just there to cheer on Kacy as any boyfriend with half a brain would've (and Brent has well more than half a brain).

Wow. There is so much misinformation in this thread. Double WOW where in the heck do you guys get your information from because lately you have been very off on several things. More misinformation than information here.

LOL I leave this thread for a few days and that's what I get Trying to find photos on Twitter. If anyone finds any please post the photo AND the location (so we know who's copyright it is). Note: Since Finals and the Special happened so short behind each other there might be some overlap on photos. Obvious ones I'll post on each but I'll do what I can to get the right ones in each thread. Twitter (collage of fan meetings) InstagramInstagramTwitterSomeone posing under the Final towerInstagram

Are we sure this "rigged" claim isn't someone bitter that they didn't clear? Have there been any more details about this claim which is EXTREMELY dangerous if false?

Are we sure this "rigged" claim isn't someone bitter that they didn't clear? Have there been any more details about this claim which is EXTREMELY dangerous if false? It's not true. There was some argument over an obstacle getting wet and not being sufficiently dried, but nothing was "rigged." That's just someone's (who shall remain nameless) emotional opinion in the heat of the moment. Spoiler It was the 3rd obstacle--the silk glider or whatever it was called--the "rigged" argument was that the landing pad had been over-inflated before certain competitors ran, causing them to bounce off into the water. However, production later confirmed that, although the air inside the pad DID expand (due to Las Vegas being a desert and, well, HOT), they actually DEflated the pad before restarting after the union break. The claim that the pad was pumped up to make certain people fail is absurd.
That said, they should've done a better job drying it, but no one should've been taking chances on the landing anyway, so...

YOU READY FOR SOME RESULTS? 19/2/0/0
1st stage was pretty tough, Curtain Slider took out vets like James & David. Clears include Strat, the rock climber trio, and Joe Moravsky.
2nd stage was a bloodbath. The Metal Spin's landing was the big killer. 2 made it out. Joe Moravsky & Elet Hall.
3rd stage: Nobody beat this. Joe Moravsky came closest, but he fell on the Hang Climb. Elet Hall failed the Doorknob Grasper.
So it's really Joe and Elet. Not too surprising...
