Wipeout

Synopsis

From the moment you first saw the “big balls,” we know you wanted to run the Wipeout course yourself (we admit, we did too!). Those bounces, smashes and splashes certainly look like a lot of fun—and a chance at a $50,000 grand prize as well? Sign us up!

About

Each week, watch twenty-four new contestants - all ages, shapes and sizes, step up to the start of the world's largest extreme obstacle course-all with the confidence that THEY will be named the "Wipeout Champion." Hosts John Anderson and John Henson provide the running commentary as we watch the contestants, and gorgeous Jill Wagner is "course-side" giving us the one-on-one interviews with the crazies who just completed the course.

There are tons of new stunts on the course - the double cross, the pitch fork, the blob, the smack wall sweeper, the fence flapper, pirate's revenge, the medieval wipeout and more. We're not sure what they all are, but we're sure they'll guarantee brand new splashes. And if the splash or crash isn't enough fun to watch just once, check it out in super slo-mo! Or backwards and forwards. Wowza.

In the end, after being pummeled in the qualifier, thrashed in the second round, plastered in the grueling third set of obstacles, we cheer as the four finalists head for the Wipeout Zone. The bright lights, big splashes and tough obstacles are jaw dropping!
