Beats Daniel Gil in the stage 4 competition.


TOPICS: Chit/Chat
KEYWORDS:
I like them both, but I wanted Drew.

Dreschel climbed the rope with time to spare(almost 3 seconds). Gil wasn't able to do beat the 30 second time limit.

That’s such a HARD thing to do.

I watched for three seasons, I think, then just got sick of no one winning it.

Wow.

Saw stage 3 complete.
Ad comes on.
Used pause a few times.
Check FreeRepublic impulsively.
Ack!
Feigned ignorance while wife watches.

Amazing job. So many obstacles, so hard.
All comes down to one rope and 30 seconds.
He earned it.

Do wonder what the $1M payout plan is.

I was rooting hard for that red headed college freshman.

He was so determined... and almost made it.

Only one guy fell on the first obstacle.

They always had some stage 4 rock wall that was about impossible in at least one place. Did they have that this time too?

No, just the rope climb. Had to climb 75 feet in 30 seconds or less.

Drew was fantastic! He’s my Ninja hero. I am very happy for him.

You mean stage 3. No that was replaced several years ago with the cane obstacle.

Me, too!

In gym class, obstacle courses were always my favorite thing.

Wow.

That’s gotta hurt taking 2nd place and nothing, right?

These guys are some of the most in shape guys in the country.
