The ropes are attached to weighted bags, which the competitors have to keep from hitting the ground. The first two competitors to finish move on to the final challenge.
The final challenge, the Skullbuster obstacle course, is a grueling test of endurance and strength that includes climbing a tall, slippery wall, crawling through narrow tubes, and leaping across a series of spinning platforms. The first competitor to complete the course wins the $10,000 prize and the chance to come back and compete again in the future.
