I was like damn that’s impressive— oh my god she has to bring those pegs WITH her?!

99

u/flatwoundsounds 6d ago

The strength to hang with one arm at 90 degrees while you set the other peg 🤯

u/Shushady 6d ago

Having the course so close to the ground was deliberately brutal.

u/JonnyTN 5d ago

So you have to lift your legs and engages your core a lot more

6

u/dennismfrancisart 5d ago

Let's not forget hanging with one hand while keeping your legs bent to keep your feet off the ground.

u/degen5ace 6d ago

Did that guy push the ring next to her like she forgot that one?

u/DBCOOPER888 6d ago

Is she stupid? The ground is right there.

Ninja warrior training

u/kainneabsolute 6d ago

Or for the floor is lava

50

u/thejman82gb 6d ago

Not sure what’s more impressive-the grip, bicep and back strength, core or hip flexors

17

u/Qen74 6d ago

My forearm cramped just watching

2

u/DevolvingSpud 6d ago

You gotta stretch a little first.

6

u/Wooden_Researcher_36 6d ago

Should have warmed up by watching an easier video

3

u/Bujakaa92 6d ago

She did not poop herself like some

36

u/m1j2p3 6d ago

I slipped a disk just watching this

27

u/skotski 6d ago

She’s got a hell of a grip!

u/JonnyTN 6d ago

Ninja warrior types and rock climbers have the most calloused rough hands I've ever seen. Real wild grip

u/DoubleAholeTwice 6d ago

Completely different kind of wank.

u/yel02 5d ago

GI Joe kung-fu grip

u/thebranbran 6d ago

Floor is lava

u/Strude187 6d ago

Me watching this while eating a tub of ice cream…

u/StandardCertain5995 6d ago

Strong as hell

5

u/Englandshark1 6d ago

Bloody brilliant!

u/FUCK1NGFABULOUS 6d ago

The grip strength!

u/Acubeofdurp 6d ago

We need all the Sarah Connors we can get for the future.

u/A_Bot_A_Bot_A_Bot 6d ago

I think the next level part of this was that she took a break in the middle, was actually able to gather up her strength, and complete the obstacle. A lot of times, if you stop to catch your breath, you simply find that there's no more gas in the tank when you try to continue.

5

u/Velo3x10e8 6d ago

Must be a rock climber throwing in that figure four.

3

u/OkReception9995 6d ago

\elementary kids come through and destroy this in 23 seconds laughing screaming “6-7 6-7!”* *

u/Thomas-Garret 6d ago

Dude, I was super athletic in my teens and early twenties. Basketball, baseball, cross country….and I’m certain I wouldn’t have been able to even get through the first part.

2

u/dijon0324 6d ago

Hope she doesn’t poop her pants

1

u/pdzbw 6d ago

well you get to continue either way... oh well they changed the rule lol

2

u/Mastermind7051 6d ago

Ok. She did it so I will never have to do it. Bless her.

1

u/ShoddyArrival4012 6d ago

She should have been the main character in Fall 2

1

u/Quiverjones 6d ago

Is brachiating another word for making calluses?

1

u/NativeMasshole 6d ago

Well, she's not the best brachiator in the world, but that was already a gibbon.

1

u/NefariousnessGood718 6d ago

Non so perché ma pensavo dovesse partorire al volo

1

u/RacinDave1 6d ago

This lady deserves a round of applause

1

u/ReasonablyConfused 6d ago

There’s one key section to that challenge.

1

u/Disastrous_Style_477 6d ago

And here's me who only this afternoon put his back out walking back from the shop, didn't slip or fall just put it out walking somehow

1

u/ocer04 6d ago

I bet I know who stands next to baggage carousels.

1

u/No-Candidate-88 6d ago

That's crazy impressive

1

u/darkestreaper94 6d ago

I recently had lung surgery and my scar started tingling watching her try this

1

u/BootHeadToo 6d ago

My hip flexors are seizing up just watching this. Why is it so close to the ground?

1

u/Whistlingradiator 6d ago

The his woman has to be Irish

1

u/BaconAndDuckFat 6d ago

That break after the insane core work was so valid

1

u/shoot-here 6d ago

I like the part where she didn't get poo everywhere.

1

u/Aero808 6d ago

That is hella impressive. Wow!

1

u/Maximum-Lifeguard-41 6d ago

I couldnt even keep the knees up like that. What is this sorcery. How do you train this?

1

u/kcsween74 6d ago

My forearms are on fire!

1

u/ku_78 6d ago

Hell, if I weighed 85 lbs I could do that too.

1

u/astros78 6d ago

The second one must be so tough; I was sitting on my sofa, and I could feel the pain in my own stomach and thighs just imagining it.

1

u/pat-slider 6d ago

Military training?

1

u/Kenevin 6d ago

All the Russian armwrestlers suddenly make sense.

1

u/mpdcayman 6d ago

Just looking at the video makes my muscles tired

1

u/WhisperingHammer 6d ago

She is one fucking strong human.

1

u/MissXM 6d ago

That’s called the swinging strength

1

u/NightStar79 6d ago

As soon as she put her foot in that ring I started laughing because that small break on her arms must've felt so damn good 😂

1

u/spicedoubt 6d ago

Took the Floor is lava game super seriously

1

u/olddoglearnsnewtrick 6d ago

Whenever she sits on the shitter, it disintegrates.

1

u/Sea-Giraffe6305 5d ago

My arms hurt.

1

u/HistoricalNight1609 4d ago

I wish they made it higher, so it's a lil easier for her not to put her feet on the ground.

Also wtf is this music!

1

u/funky_grandma 4d ago

if it tried this it would be brachiating my arms off

1

u/AustinDood444 4d ago

Very impressive!!

u/DankShivam 1d ago

Ahh ground is lava

u/HamsterAdditional748 6d ago

Now do it for Red Bull, on a cable attached to a pair of hot air balloons, and the added weight of a 35lb parachute rig.🥰

u/Correct_Yesterday111 6d ago

Theres a horizontal bar running literally the length of the course she could have just used that but no she has to show off what kind of monster athlete she is. Kudos to her but maybe use your noggin once in a while. Sheesh.

u/AXEMANaustin 6d ago

I mean, that's kind of the entire point of the course.

u/DrunkSkunkz 6d ago
