Challenges are fun but the Circus is ridiculous


I like the challenges they are fun to watch. The Circus though with the whole having the WILL to not give up pleassse. One of them it was about balance and the latest one was can you sprint back and forth in 10 seconds. Lol you can't give up on those two tasks on how it was structured.

Most of the Circus' are just aweful way to get eliminated

The balance one was kind of pointless....Balance is not about toughness; it's a coordination thing.

The rest of the circuses were better, but I agree that I'd prefer if they all were based on measuring toughness and not athleticism, long-stride (If you're 6'4, you cover more ground with each step than a 5'2 woman), and whatnot.

That guy was going to lose either way. Tony & Cam have the perfect combo of speed and strength. That guy is all strength and has no endurance. He was gassed after the obstacle course.

Well, tonight they finally had someone give up rather than falter, just said "I can't do this anymore" and quit.
