Oh yeah, it's back. I dig that they are letting in the younger peeps, 19 yo + now. This young college hottie destroyed this course, nice suspense building up the wall, too. Youngest woman ever to complete course...

Wow. First time 3 women finished the same finals course, they are killing it this year. I love anw because it's the same difficult course, regardless of gender, age, etc.. Beird was awesome, toughest 5th grade teacher ever...

The first time I saw Isaac Caldiero run the course I knew he would win
Same here, I picked Isaac early. I think it was the way he almost held the courses in contempt, like, "Really? What's so hard about this?" He kinda just lingered on really difficult obstacles, and never seemed to exert any effort. Glad he's back this year, I smell a repeat...

Well, no one conquered Mt. Midoriyama this year (of course), but Drew and Sean got really close. Drew did take home the new $100k prize for being last man standing, I'm glad they added that. I was really hoping this would be Drew's year, it's his eighth, for christ's sake. The courses are inhuman, especially Stage 3. I mean, come on. Only 2 competitors passed Stage 2. Oh, well. There's always next year...

Bucky, this is yet another good reason to remove the tv from your home.

The whole world is out there, and we watch, and say it slowly now... american... ninja... warrior.

Drew Drechsel killed it. Second fastest finish, $10k for the Mega Wall, and won the Power Tower so he's going straight to the finals. He almost took it all last year, I think this year just may be his year. He deserves it. His run isn't on YT yet, I'll check again in the morning...

Here's that epic run. He really is the Real Life Ninja, what a stud...




Here's last week's Power Tower head-to-head. I think young dude won by a third of a second. I was rooting for the old dude -
