S03E06 Triple Beam Walk; Glass Walking; Magnetic Car Drop
Episode Overview
In the first challenge, contestants faced the daunting task of traversing three 40-foot long beams, each just 3½ inches wide and suspended at varying heights. They had to navigate between the beams using rope ladders, and upon reaching the final beam, they needed to release a flag. The four contestants who either completed this challenge the quickest or traveled the farthest before falling would move on to the next round, while the others would be eliminated. Next, the contestants faced the glass walking challenge, where they had to walk barefoot over shards of broken glass. They would throw rocks at windows numbered 5-10 to determine the distance they needed to cover on the glass. Those who successfully completed the walk would secure their spot in the finals. Finally, in the magnetic car drop stunt, contestants stood atop a car perched over 100 feet high, while a magnetic arm swung it over a junkyard. They had to time their jump when they felt the car was over a designated X mark.
