So I don't know how many people watch this show, but it features a pretty grueling physical obstacle course. I personally only watch it here and there but when I saw this lady compete I was blown away. She made it look so easy!

This is pretty crazy.

    I love that show, pretty interesting to watch.

    Sadly I don't get the channel that it is aired on, and hulu/netflix doesn't have it yet. D:

    It is! Apparently she is the first female period to finish this particular semi finals obstacle course, this was not a female version of the show. Really goes to show how gruelling the obstacles are that it took this long for that to happen. I have trouble doing pull-ups period, let alone that high up in the air whilst simultaneously pushing the bar up into the next rung. I know dudes in the army that would have trouble with that. I think her gymnastics background helped. She's going to the finals with that one.

    Oh neat. I used to watch that fairly often but haven't had the ability to do so recently.

    It's an impressive feat for sure. You really have to push yourself to the limit and even then it's pretty likely you'd fail on it.

    No, it wasn't just a pull-up. She was really high up in the air, and she had to move the bar up higher and higher while simultaneously doing a pull up.

    It's like pull-ups on steroids. xD
