As far back as I can remember, the competitors at the past ANW slipped at HPA. No one slipped at the HP wall in the first half of the 1st stage this time.

Hard to tell from the slightly different angles but to me the version in 19 has the rope higher then the others while the wall looks the steepest in the 23 shot (could be bs, just what it looks like to me). I agree though that the HPA in Vegas looks much easier then last year.

Slipping off the halfpipe isn't a terribly common method of failure to begin with. Most people fail because they can't hold on to the rope or hold on too low. I wouldn't call that a decent judge of the obstacle.

Yeah, and in a case shown in the episode, someone even skimmed the water.

Don't wanna start anything again but I notice on Facebook it now says (about Megan Martin) that shes the first woman to complete the american ninja warriors jumping spider, not the first woman in history to complete the jumping spider (which is what the heading was recently). Totally agree with Arsenettes argument, its one thing to say its ANW history not Sasuke and another to make up bulls**t statements that aren't true to hype it up and make people think their witnessing history.

At least they corrected it so it is progress
