Four of the deadliest humans on the
planet enter the field of battle. They will be tested in the realms of
strength, speed, and intelligence. After each test, one will be
eliminated until there is only one. That one will win $10,000 and the
title of One Man Army.
Let's go hot.

SPEED CHALLENGE: Targets
Phase one: Operatives must shoot 10
targets from a moving vehicle in the village using an M4 carbine assault
rifle, US Special Forces standard issue. You must repeat the course
until all targets are shot.
Phase two: Operatives continue on foot to
a compound. Use an M79 grenade launcher to fire one round through a
narrow window. A successful hit will stop down the clock.
TIME IS CRITICAL; the slowest time will
be extracted from the game.
JONATHAN: 7:25
ALEX: 9:18
DANNY: 7:26 - SAFE
CHRIS: 9:13 - SAFE
Alex is the slowest... but he is not out
yet. He will have to face off against Chris for a shot at the money.
RECOVERY ROUND: Fifty Rounds
Each operative has one Beretta 9mm, two
mags, and fifty targets. You have one minute to shoot as many targets as
possible.
After the cease fire... Alex beats Chris,
19-13.
EXTRACTED: Chris
STRENGTH CHALLENGE: The Breach
Operatives will have to breach four
doors and two walls.
- Barrier #1: Door; breach using your
body weight
- Barrier #2: Pry door; breach using leverage and a crowbar.
- Barrier #3: Cinder block concrete wall reinforced by half-inch steer
rebar and water sprays; breach using a sledge
- Barrier #4: Stucco wall reinforced by 2x6 boards, plaster lath, flex
conduit, insulation, and cement board.
- Barrier #5: Trick door; it is already unlocked.
- Barrier #6: Shotgun door; breach using a close-range shotgun to the
deadbolt.
TIME IS CRITICAL; the slowest time will
be extracted from the game.
This will be won or loss on how the tool
is used. You may choose to use the tool or not. You may choose to keep
the tool with you or not.
EXTRACTED: Danny, who never got past the
first door.
INTELLIGENCE CHALLENGE: Watercode
Each operative will be strapped into a
waterboard, where they must memorize a light pattern. Once he has
duplicated all seven light patterns, he must figure out a lock. The
first operative to unlock himself AND hit the red button will win
$10,000 and the title of One Man Army.
Both will be chained to "the Machine" as
the temperature is down to 50 degrees. The pool temperature... Even
colder. There is a significant risk of both drowning and hyperthermia.
At level 3, Alex is the first to enter an
incorrect pattern, meaning that he will have to stay above water for 30
seconds. Jonathan picks up the pace and gets to the lock. Can he figure
out that the combination corresponds to the light pattern? HE DOES! That
is $10,00 and the title of One Man Army!
EXTRACTED: Alex
Jonathan K takes the game and the cash
and the title of One Man Army. His performance had focus and mental
acuity, throughout. You are a warrior. And in your daughter's eyes, you
are a hero.
Four more operatives next time...
