Las Vegas Finals
Part 2 What started weeks ago will finally come to a head tonight as the best 85 athletes from all over the nation will test their mettle against the most difficult obstacle course ever devised for television. Will a veteran make the final cut? Will a rookie mount Midoriyama? We are four stages and 23 obstacles away from answering the $500,000 question and perhaps naming the first... AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR! Aside from the top 15 from each of the four cities, we also have 25 wild cards including top 3 alternates from each city, the top female athletes, and the top athletes over 40. And judging from the montage, Brent Steffensen, who failed the City Final, WILL RUN THE SASUKE COURSE. LAS VEGAS Stage 1 will test speed and agility. Stage 2 will test strength and endurance. Stage 3 is the ultimate test of upper body strength. Survive all of that, and only the Big Tower awaits. There is no substitute for total victory. Only the one who summits the Big Tower at the end will claim $500,000. And it all starts with Stage 1. The contestants will have 2 minutes 10 seconds to complete this course. - TIMBERS: Eight slanted logs Hit the button at the end before time runs out, you're on to stage 2. Otherwise, it's game over. Starting tonight with... - Jeffrey Tan (26; Flushing, NY; rope
access technician): FAIL Jumping Spider Joining the ranks of the damned on the Jumping Spider: Jonathan Brown, Will Roberts, and veteran Jake Smith. - Joseph Rosello (30; Miami;
firefighter): FAIL Halfpipe Attack It's beginning to look a lot like sunny skies for Joe... - James Sclar (29; Culver City, CA;
culinary student): FAIL Jumping Spider Spectacular performance from the Captain. Not so much for David Slovenski, Tony Reddick, or Mia Lazarewicz. - Andrew Lowes (30; Fort Wayne, IN; gymnastics coach): This one will have to go to a replay... ... FAIL Final Climb BY 0.3 SECONDS! And obviously distraught. Last up... - Paul Kasemir (26; Longmont, CO; software engineer): STAGE COMPLETE! (:22.34 remaining) And two-thirds of the way through Stage 1 (including runs cut off by G4 overrun)... LEADERBOARD 1) ELET HALL (:39) We finish Stage 1 on G4 and NBC, as the remaining 25 leave it all on the line in a shot at Stage 2.
