"[growling]" "[Terry] It doesn't matter if you're a Japanese samurai... [yelling] [in Japanese] I was born to slay this beast!" "Power!" "[Terry] a Korean Special Forces operative..." "[Jinbong in Korean] I'm so proud that I served my country." "And I'll win this game." "[Terry] ...a U.S. Olympic gold swimmer..." "[Ed] You can't buckle to the pressure." "I 100% believe that I can win this competition." "[Terry] ...a Korean father..." "[Koohun in Korean] I can set an example for my sons." "I want to do it in my father's name." "[Terry] ...or a student from Mexico." "[Angelica in Spanish] That's right, exactly." "I'm short... but I'll be the champion." "[Terry] For everyone, the goal is the same:" "Power!" "Conquer the Beast." "[crowd cheering]" "[Terry] They'll do it for pride, country... [shouting]" " [in Portuguese] Brazil!" " [in Spanish] Mexico!" " [both] USA!" " [Terry] ...and for bragging rights..." "[Charissa] Holds on with one hand!" "[Terry] ...as they attempt to tackle the most physically demanding..." "[Terry and Charissa exclaim]" "[Terry] ...and mentally challenging obstacle course in the world... [in Japanese] Careful, Muscle Samurai!" "[Terry] ...to become the world's first Ultimate Beastmaster." " She's going..." " [Terry and Charissa exclaim]" "[Terry] That's like me in Vegas." " Into the pool?" " Into the pool." "I'm done." "[instrumental theme music playing]" "I am Charissa Thompson." "This is Ultimate Beastmaster." "And I'm Terry Crews." "[Terry] And tonight, 12 more competitors are gonna have to summon up every ounce of courage they have to enter the Beast's mighty choppers." "In the end, only one will end up with $10,000 and bragging rights for their country." "[Charissa] Earlier, all of us got a chance to cheer our competitors on, and they are pumped up and ready to take on the Beast." "[in German] Come on!" "Yes!" "[in Portuguese] I'm excited." "It's a giant video game!" " I'm in Super Mario Brothers." " [in Portuguese] It's very cool, right?" " It's Super Mario Brothers." " It's Super Hyper Ultra Mario Brothers." "[all chanting] USA!" "USA!" "USA!" " Whoo!" " Whoa!" "I think we should introduce the first competitor." "I'm with you." "Let's go!" "[Charissa] Kicking off tonight's competition is" "Shoji Nakayama from Tokyo, Japan." "He's a professional bodybuilder..." "Oh, and a professional comedian." "[in Japanese] My name is Shoji Nakayama." "I'm 37, from Fukuoka Prefecture." "The Japanese revere samurai as heroes." "I add "muscle" to that, calling myself Muscle Samurai." "As a participant representing Japan," "I'm hoping to bring Muscle Samurai into the global limelight." "At the end of this Ultimate Beastmaster, surely only I shall remain." "Power!" "[countdown clock beeps]" "[Charissa] Have you checked out his hairdo?" "[Terry] I was just told that his hairstyle just cost $2,000." " [Charissa] That is ridiculous!" " Yeah..." "[Charissa] $2,000?" "That costs more than my weave." " [Terry] I don't know!" " Unbelievable." "Well, I'm envious of anyone with a head of hair." "[laughter]" "[Charissa] That hair is all part of his persona as a samurai." "[Terry] Of course." "If you're gonna battle the Beast, you're gonna need to call in one of the most elite warriors in the world." "[Charissa] Now, Terry, as you know, samurais were known for being very good with strategy, so let's see what he does as he approaches the first Point Thruster opportunity." "[Terry] Nope." "This is a game of cumulative points, and you're gonna need every point you can get." "That must've been his comedian side that didn't want to attempt it." "[Charissa] Exactly." "The samurai side would've gone for it." "He doesn't want to face plant into the Beast blood with $2,000 worth of hair." "[Terry] You don't want to put any Beast blood on that hairdo." "[Charissa] No, you do not!" "[loud hydraulic hiss]" "[Terry] Here we go, and he's got it." "[Terry and Charissa exclaim]" " [Charissa] Nice!" " [Terry] All right!" " Can he hold on?" " There, he's got it!" " Looking strong!" " Come on, Muscle Sam!" " [Terry] There he is." " [Charissa] Well done!" "[Terry] There he is." "Oh, great technique." "[Charissa] He's eyeing that Point Thruster." "[Terry] He's eyeing the Point Thruster." "He's gonna go for it." "[in Japanese] He's going for the Thruster..." "[Terry and Charissa] Oh!" "Oh no!" "What happened?" "He couldn't make it!" "[Terry] The hair is gone!" " He lost his wig!" " Oh, he lost his wig!" "What is happening?" " [Charissa] No!" "No!" " He lost his hairpiece!" "That's $2,000 down the blood drain." "[Terry] Oh, he just did not..." "[Charissa] Missed it by a hair." "[Terry] By a hair!" "For a samurai, losing this hair amounts to ritual suicide." "It is a samurai's life." "[Charissa] "Shoji the money"..." "Or the hair, in this case." "Is he putting that back on his head?" " [Terry] He put it back." "Yeah!" " [Charissa] Shoji!" "[Charissa] With the competition underway, let's quickly meet our two competitors representing the USA." "[Terry] Our first competitor is Ed Moses from Hollywood, California." "The former swimmer arrives with the tenacity and speed that enabled him to shatter world records and win an Olympic gold medal." "I'm here to conquer this competition and conquer the Beast." "My mentality coming into the Ultimate Beastmaster is identical to going into the Olympics." "I 100% believe that I can win this competition." "If I can label myself as the Ultimate Beastmaster, that might go right under the Olympic gold medalist." "Goal is to walk away the champ." "[Terry] In the Midwest, we have Hanah Jamroz from Cedar Lake, Indiana." "This tough-as-nails CrossFitter and former body builder believes her combination of strength and agility will allow her to hang with the big boys." "I have two older brothers, so I was definitely the little baby sister that got picked on all the time." "I am not scared to go against any men or women who are twice my size." "I am strong, very strong." "I am very quick." "I'm an all-around athlete." "I want to win this competition so badly," "I will do whatever it takes to win it." "[Terry] Ed Moses and Hanah Jamroz." "This combination of youth and experience should give the Beast all it can handle as the competitors vie for the title of Ultimate Beastmaster." "[Charissa] Our American competitors are gonna have their hands full, because conquering the Beast, well, it's not easy, as these next four competitors learned in the qualifying round." "First up, Jinbong Lee from South Korea, who's no stranger to high-pressure situations." "I served in Special Forces for four years, safe and sound." "I've learned a lot." "And I'll do my best." "No regrets." "Go Korea!" "[Terry] Jinbong Lee was looking strong early on... [screaming] but his attempt at the second Point Thruster brought his run to a bloody end." "Aah!" "[Charissa] Next up was Jacobo Luchtan, an extreme sports enthusiast from Mexico who proved to be a tough competitor after taking a hard hit on Faceplant." " Yeah!" " He made it!" "[Charissa] But on his attempt at the second Point Thruster, the Beast proved to be tougher." "[Terry and Charissa exclaim]" "Yeah!" "Go, Mexico!" "[Terry] Next up was Yoshifumi Fujita from Japan, and he wanted to show the Beast his strongman pedigree." "But after a weak first jump on the Energy Coils... the Beast was unimpressed... and Yoshi's strength gave out." "Ah!" "But now he's fallen!" "[Charissa] Then it was time for Hanah Jamroz, a personal trainer from Indiana, to sink her teeth into the Beast." "And it looked like Hanah was going to take a bite out of this course." "But on her jump to the third Energy Coil..." "[Charissa screams] the Beast bit back." "I think my tooth's a little wiggly, but I think I'll be fine." "[Charissa] Getting back to the action, Johannes Gmelin of Brazil is already on the course with 20 points." "Thirty-three years old from São Paolo, Brazil." "[Terry] Johannes owns two CrossFit gyms, and also has a brown belt in jujitsu." "[Charissa] He's eyeing that Point Thruster." "Do you see that?" "[Terry] He's taking a look." "I think he's gonna try it." "I think he's gonna try it." "He's testing out how strong it is." "He's gotta get a grip, and he can go for it." "If you want to do it, remember, you're 25 feet in the air." "He's a little nervous." "[Charissa] Now, you have gotta not only keep your balance, you then have to pull yourself up on a coil and kick up that..." "[Terry] He got it!" "He did it!" "The Brazilian did it." "[Terry] Nice work." "You can tell this guy's been an athlete his entire life." "[Charissa] This guy is a monster." "[Terry] He reminds me of the Hulk." "[Charissa] He reminds me of you." "[Terry laughs]" " [Terry] He is serious, and he is focused." " [Charissa] Look at his face." "[Terry] This is what you see in the eyes of a champion right now, and if he gets elevation, he's gonna have no problem with this." " He's up and..." "Good elevation!" " [Charissa] There we go." "[Terry] Over!" "Wow!" "Very good." "[Terry] He looks like he could hurt somebody, but he's been putting the hurt on Level 1 so far." "He's aiming for that Point Thruster." "He's already gotten one." "Is he gonna get this one, too?" "[all exclaiming]" "[Terry] Oh, my goodness." "And he's right there by the Energy..." "Look at that." "He has hit two Point Thrusters." "Ladies and gentlemen, this is..." "Go, go, go, go..." "[Terry] No!" "But that's okay." "[Charissa] And with that strong run," "Johannes Gmelin of Brazil now sits atop the leader board with 60 points." " [Terry] He has done amazing." " [Charissa] He wanted that one." "[Terry] Two Point Thruster grabs." "The bonus point opportunities were taken advantage of." "I wanted to take everything I could." "I'll get everything." "I want all the points." "[Terry] Next up is someone that should give Johannes a run for his money, our second competitor from the USA," "Olympic gold medalist Ed Moses." "[Ed] In 2000 in the Sydney Olympics, I won a gold and silver medal..." "A gold in the 400-medley relay, and a silver in the 100-meter breaststroke." "I've also broken 13 world records." "I know what it's like to see different countries to your left and right." "The goal is to walk away as the champ." "[Charissa] Ed Moses is already on the course with 40 points." "Ed's a swimmer." "If you know anything about the sport, you know they are some of the strongest all-round athletes in the world." "[Terry] He actually missed the 2016 Olympic trials so he could be here to compete in Beastmaster." " He's going for the Point Thruster!" " [Charissa] Come on, Ed!" " [Terry] He's got it!" "USA all the way!" " [Charissa] Atta baby!" " [Charissa] Look at him." " He's got tremendous leaping ability, but you have to commit!" " [Charissa] Yeah!" " [Terry] He's got it!" "[Terry] Johannes looking a little concerned now after Ed made the jump that Johannes missed earlier." "[Charissa] Johannes got both Point Thrusters, though." "Ed's only got that one." "Now, Ed will need to make it onto the last Energy Coil to earn more points and tie Johannes." "[Terry] And just focus." "There you go." "Oh, yeah, he got even air!" "He got air on that." "[Charissa] Awesome!" "[Terry] And Moses is about to part the blood of the Beast." "[Charissa laughs] Okay, I knew that was coming." "Anderson, now that the Brazilian is ahead, do you hope the American falls in?" " No, I'm not hoping the American..." " You are kidding, right?" "I am." "I'm not hoping the American falls in the water, no." "[Terry and Charissa exclaim] Oh, man!" "The Olympic swimmer Ed Moses fell off." "Now he's going to use his swimming techniques in the Beast's blood." "Exactly. [chuckles]" "[Terry] Looks like he thought he had a foothold, but that's the danger of the Mag Wall right there." "Not even close, oh, man!" "I got a little quick on that one corner, but I think that will guarantee Level 2, probably in the lead." "[Charissa] And he had a great run, finishing with 60 points." "However, he lands in second place behind Johannes Gmelin, who got both Point Thrusters and had a faster time to keep him in that top spot." "[Terry] Remember, only the top eight competitors are moving on to Level 2." "Next up was Simone de Araújo of Brazil, who is looking to battle the Beast with her special skills." "[Simone] I grew up in a slum." "We were very poor, and it was a difficult childhood." "Capoeira gave me an opportunity to believe in myself." "I am one of the best athletes for this competition." "[Charissa] Simone was so cautious entering the Beast, she ended up making a fatal error on Mother Tongue, dropping her and her chances of advancing." "She fell off!" "[Terry] Next up was Marcel Tratnik, a lifeguard from Germany, who was on a hot streak early on, but a mistimed jump at the Point Thruster knocked him into the blood with only 40 points." "Aww!" "[Charissa] After that was Koohun Lee from South Korea, who knew he needed at least 60 points to be in the top eight." "And, after several failed attempts at the first Point Thruster, he moved on to the Energy Coils and nailed the second one." "Then made a questionable decision to stop trying for points." "That may come back to haunt him later in the game." "What is this?" "[Terry] And finally, Angelica Melo of Mexico nicknamed "the Wild Rabbit,"" "jumped out to a great start on Level 1." "But once she reached the dreaded Energy Coils, this Wild Rabbit didn't have enough hop." "[Terry and Charissa exclaim] Oh, no!" "Ohh!" "[in Spanish] She made it there, but slipped right over!" "[in Spanish] She got too far up there!" "Exactly." "I'll tell you one thing, her feet got further than she expected." "That was a good jump!" "[Charissa] Marcel Tratnik of Germany and Simone Araújo of Brazil did not do enough to crack the top eight, and are eliminated." "That leaves America's Hanah Jamroz on the bubble with one more competitor to go." "[Terry] So, it all comes down to this." "David Manthei from Germany." "If he can score more than 40 points, he'll be moving on to Level 2, and Hanah will be eliminated." "[Charissa] Now, David is extremely fit for a 20-year-old, but he wasn't always that way." "[David] My father left us when I was 12." "I was very upset and started eating a lot and became quite chubby." "One day, I realized I had to change something in my life, and should not give up but go my own way." "I am the Ultimate Beastmaster." "[Terry] All right, back to the action." "It's Germany versus USA for the final spot in Level 1, as David Manthei is on the course with 30 points." "[both chanting] Germany!" "Germany!" "Germany!" "[both chanting] USA!" "USA!" "USA!" "[Terry] David's been killing it so far, which is not good for our girl Hanah." "[Charissa] That's right, Terry." "If David completes this obstacle and the Energy Coils, well, Hanah's gonna be eliminated." "[Terry] There he goes!" "[all exclaiming]" "Directly into the Energy Coils." "[Charissa] David Manthei is now tied with Hanah at 40 points." "If he does not make it past these Energy Coils, then it will go to a tiebreaker, which is the fastest time." "[crowd cheering]" "Yes." "[Charissa] If David makes it onto the last Energy Coil, then Hanah will be eliminated." "[exclaiming]" "[Charissa] That's 50 points for David Manthei." "Hanah is officially out of the competition." "[Terry] Now he's on to the Mag Wall." "We haven't seen a lot of the competitors make it here tonight." "There's a handle into the water." "It's starting to get demagnetized, one handle at a time." "[Charissa] At this point, David has made it the farthest of any competitor tonight." "He just needs to get around this one last bend to finish." "[Terry] This young man was named after David Beckham." "Can he bend it like Beckham?" "Oh, hey!" "[Charissa] Look at that, you see the magnets falling off." "[Terry] He's so close!" "He's just gotta maintain that grip strength." "[Charissa] Wow!" "[Terry] And make sure you have a firm footing." "Oh, is he stuck?" "And now he is slipping." "He slipped." "He didn't know where to go next." "[Terry] Wow, he was so close to completing Level 1." "What an effort by David!" "[Charissa] David made it the furthest of any competitor." "[Terry] I'll tell you what, this 20-year-old from Germany is definitely one to keep an eye on tonight." "I really wanted to complete this, but it will still work." "I think I'm okay." "[Charissa] So in the top spot is Johannes Gmelin of Brazil, followed by the American, Ed Moses, and the two South Koreans," "Koohun Lee and Jinbong Lee." "In fifth place," "Jacobo Luchtan of Mexico, followed by David Manthei of Germany," "Shoji Nakayama of Japan, and Angelica Melo of Mexico." "[Terry] Level 2 consists of seven punishing obstacles and two Point Thrusters, all worth 20 points each." "A perfect run will score competitors an additional 180 points." "[Charissa] Olympic gold medalist Ed Moses is coming off a great performance in Level 1." "Since I did so well on Level 1, people actually consider me a real threat here, and I don't want to rush through this, 'cause it's dangerous." "[Charissa] The current leader, Johannes Gmelin of Brazil, is looking like the man to beat." "I saw that it's difficult, requires a lot of concentration, a lot of precision." "[Charissa] Shoji Nakayama from Japan, who finished in seventh, needs a good run to make up ground." "It is a samurai's life." "I'll give the second stage my all." "Power!" "[Charissa] First up, David Manthei, an architectural student from Germany, comes to us with something to prove." "I want to show my mother with this how important she is to me, but I also want to show my father what became of me." " [cheering] - [countdown clock beeps]" "[Charissa] The first obstacle is Spinal Ascent, and David's got a parkour background, so he's used to leaping from rooftop to rooftop back home." "[Terry] That's definitely gonna help him out on this obstacle." "This guy does a lot of training with his own body weight, and you can see how agile that makes him." "[Charissa] Now he's going for the ultimate jump, that eight feet." "[Terry] Oh, not a great jump." "This is going to be hard." "Abort!" "Oh." "Ohh!" " [Terry] Go back... no!" " [Charissa] Ohh!" "[Terry] Almost in the blood!" "[German hosts exclaiming]" "[Charissa] He gets to keep going since he didn't touch the bottom." "Terry, do you think he can do it?" "[Terry] It's gonna be hard for him, not just because he's physically tired, but mentally, it's gotta shake your confidence." "Here we go." "He's got his elbows up." " [Charissa] Come on, David." "There we go!" " [Terry] And he is over!" "Over!" "[Charissa] Now onto the second obstacle of the level, Spinal Descent." "[Terry] We've seen guys actually do the splits to get to this Point Thruster, and he's looking very unsteady." "He's nervous." "He gets it!" " [Charissa] Nicely done." " [Terry] A foot in the water!" "[Terry] Gotta find his way back up." "He's gotta power his way over there." "[Charissa] Even with his parkour skills, I highly doubt that David is used to jumping around on things that are spinning this fast." "There we go." "That was a nice jump." "Thanks to my calisthenics and free athletics workouts," "I am used to moving my own body weight very fast over different obstacles." "[Terry] He looks very unsteady right now." "Yeah, see his eyes are all over the place." "[Terry and Charissa exclaim]" "[Terry] He just barely stays on, but he's got it." "He's got to jump right into that Digestive Track." "You've gotta move." "He does not have a lot of time." "You gotta make your jump!" "And now a controlled jump onto the Dreadmill." "[all exclaim]" " [Charissa] Missed it." " Wow, wow." "No, that was not a good jump." "[Terry] He who hesitates is lost." "I should have run up the tube faster, then I might have made it." "I hit the Point Thruster, but I should have made it further." "[Charissa] Only five of our eight competitors will qualify for Level 3." "Next up is Koohun Lee, a father of two." "The thing I'm most proud of doing?" "Having my son." ""A father is strong."" "I wanted to show everybody how to break yourself out of the shell." "[Charissa] Koohun Lee struggled to make it over Spinal Ascent, and with a nine-minute max time limit on Level 2, he chewed up that clock..." "[Terry] And he's done it!" "[Charissa] forcing him to fly down Spinal Descent." "Now, he nailed the Point Thruster..." "[Terry] He's got it." "[Charissa] but ended up timing out on Stomach Churn." "My son." "You didn't see that, okay?" "[Terry] Next up was Mexico's Jacobo Luchtan, who also had problems conquering Spinal Ascent." "He ultimately pushed through, but the clock became his enemy as well." " All of Mexico's guts there!" " Yeah, he made it!" "Yeah!" "[Terry] And with time running out, he made a last-ditch effort for more points." " [Charissa] Look at him!" "Look at him!" " Going for the mighty Point..." "[Terry] And he got the Point Thruster!" "I had to make it, there was no other way." "I had to do it, out of pure pride!" "[Charissa] Then we had Special Forces Jinbong Lee, who looked confident attacking Level 2..." "[Korean hosts singing]" "[Charissa] but a hard landing on Digestive Track..." "[Terry] Oh, he actually broke the Digestive Track!" "[Charissa] and an ill-timed jump on Dreadmills forced him into the blood." "[Terry] Finally, it was professional comedian Shoji Nakayama," "Japan's last hope to advance." " Whoa, there!" " Careful, Muscle Samurai!" "Careful, Muscle Samurai!" "[Charissa] Look at his legs shaking." "[Terry] But an off-balance landing on Spinal Ascent dropped him and Japan's chances into the blood of the Beast." "Oh, it is over!" "[Shoji] Unfortunately, my landing just didn't go well." "At least I was able to save my topknot." "[Charissa] Right now, we rejoin the action with our second place competitor from Level 1, Ed Moses." "Now, he's already made it to Spinal Descent." "He's the lone U.S. representative in Level 2." "[Terry] This guy is one of the oldest athletes in the competition at 36, but I gotta tell you, he looks just as fit and agile as anyone we've seen." "[Charissa] Ed knows how to play this game." " [Terry] There we go." "Good job." " [Charissa] Goes for that Point Thruster." "[Charissa] Ed Moses feels like he's got a lot to prove to these other athletes because, let's remember, he won gold and silver medals in the Sydney Olympics." "[crowd cheering]" " Oh, he gets it right in the..." " Where did he get it, Terry?" "Gets it right in his precious packages." ""Precious packages," that's what we're referring to them as." "[Terry] Oh, yeah, every guy knows what poor Ed is feeling right now." "It is not a good feeling." "[Charissa laughs] Try telling that to women who have babies." "[Terry] Touché." "He is spinning as if he had drunk a lot of bottles of whiskey." "[Charissa] Come on, Ed!" "[both chanting] USA!" "USA!" "USA!" "I'm with you, baby!" " [Charissa] Get in!" " [Terry] He hears us." "[Terry] He's gotta go right now." "There's no time to turn around." "[Charissa] Come on, Ed, go, go, go!" "[Terry] He's gotta give it everything he's got." "[Charissa] Johannes Gmelin looking worried." "I think he recognized Ed as a real threat." " [Terry] Going!" "He's going!" " [Charissa] Yes!" "Yes!" " [Terry] You got it!" " [Charissa] Yes!" "Yes!" "Anderson, now is the time." "Now is the time to separate the children from the adults." " [Charissa] He's got..." "Now." "Yep." " [Terry] Make this jump." " [Charissa shouts]" " The blood!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "Very well." "Can I speak?" "Very well." "Don't be sad." "It means that the Brazilian has a chance to continue leading." "[Terry] In the end, Ed just didn't have enough left to make it onto the bridge." "I made the long jump, and I was shocked, but the second one, I got smacked right in the low zone." "It took the wind out of me bad, so I had to slow up a lot." "But at least I finished that and the tube, so I think I just gotta keep sizing up my competition and letting them know that I'm not playing any games out here." "[Charissa] Looking at the leader board," "Ed Moses has moved into first place with 160 points." "Shoji Nakayama of Japan has been eliminated." "Jacobo Luchtan of Mexico is now on the bubble." "Going back to the action," "Johannes Gmelin, he's already made it to Spinal Descent, and he's got 80 points so far." "Let's go, Johannes!" "Go for it, bro." "[Terry] He's got it." "He's got it." "[Charissa] And with that, it's hasta la vista, Jacobo Luchtan." " Look at his face, Anderson." " He's focused." "His dad is German." " [grunts] But he is Brazilian." " Take a look." "[Charissa] I would hate to be this guy's kids, because that is not a face you want to see when you misbehave." "[Terry] Oh, you should see me when my kids give me a hard time." "[growls, laughs]" "[Charissa] No, come on, you're just a big teddy bear." "[Terry] There it is." "You almost have to get the rhythm of how it's spinning... and then time your jump." "Oh, there he goes, he gets to it." "[Charissa] Johannes is a big guy, and we've seen those type of competitors have a little trouble getting through the Digestive Track." "[Terry] That's true, but this guy is an animal." "I think he's gonna destroy it." "Now he's just plowing through that tube." "[Charissa] If he makes it onto the Dreadmills, he will be tied with Ed Moses again." "He managed to jump!" "Very well!" "That's great!" "[Terry] And he takes the other leap!" "[Terry and Charissa exclaim]" "[Charissa] He doesn't make it." "Doesn't make it." "[Terry] He does not make it." "Oh, man." "Unfortunately, Johannes fell, guys." " What did he do?" "I don't get it." " Oh, boy..." "[Charissa] This is really turning into a two-man fight between Brazil's Johannes Gmelin and USA's Ed Moses." "I'm happy to take Brazil ahead." "Again, the leadership is mine." "The American's going to have trouble taking it from me." "He won't be able to." "[Charissa] Koohun Lee of South Korea is on the bubble, with one competitor left to go." "Here's Angelica Melo, the last woman standing, and the last hope for Mexico." "Come on, Angie!" "All of Mexico's with you, girl!" "[both chanting] Mexico!" "[Charissa] She'll need more than 120 points to move on to Level 3." "[Terry] She gets off to a good start, but this is gonna be difficult for her, because she's only five feet tall." "[Charissa] There's definitely an advantage to having long legs to propel your jumps." "[Terry] But I'll tell you, for someone her size, she is really giving an impressive performance." "[Charissa] Yeah, Terry." "Angelica was born prematurely, and doctors told her parents that she would never be able to live an athletic life." "Unbelievable." "[Terry] Well, she's proving them wrong tonight!" "[Charissa] She's no stranger to competition." "She also placed top five in her first Spartan race when she was just 17." "[Terry] That is incredible." "Gets the Point Thruster!" " Look at Angie, my girl!" " That's another 20 points!" " [Charissa] Foot's really tangled up here." " [Terry] Tangled up really hardcore." "[Terry] Oh, she's t... oh!" "[crowd cheering]" " Oh, man!" " [Charissa] Wow!" " Ay, my girl!" " No!" "[Terry] Oh, watch this." "She got there, and then boom!" " Oh, my goodness." " [Charissa] She was there, too." "I lacked on that jump, I think, and I couldn't grab it hard." "But if this is God's will..." "[Charissa] With that, we've reached the end of Level 2, and the top five moving on to Level 3 of the Beast are:" "Johannes Gmelin of Brazil, followed by Ed Moses of the U.S.," "Jinbong Lee of South Korea," "David Manthei of Germany, and Koohun Lee of South Korea." "[Terry] So let's check out what our remaining competitors are up against in the Energy Pyramid, also known as Level 3." "[Charissa] There are 240 points up for grabs here, and depending on which path you take, one path will take you out quicker, but the other, more difficult path, has three bonus obstacles worth 40 points each." "[Terry] But it's important to remember if you fail to complete any of the bonus obstacles, you lose 40 points." "You do not want that to happen." "[Charissa] Johannes Gmelin of Brazil has been the sole leader up to this point." "I am confident." "As I was first on Level 1 and first on Level 2," "I hope it's the same now at Level 3." "[Charissa] But not far behind him is Olympic gold medalist Ed Moses." "You know, I'm a 36-year-old swimmer, but it doesn't matter how old I am." "I gotta execute." "One slip-up, one let-up here, and you're gonna be in the water." "[Charissa] South Korea has two competitors in Level 3, which means we could possibly have an all-Korean final." "I think the important thing for you is the start." "Imagine both of us in the final." "Let's show them what Koreans are." "Cheer for each other." "[Charissa] The only remaining competitor from Germany, 20-year-old David Manthei." "I am about to make it." "I want to take this thing home to Germany, as you can see." "I would hate to fail just before the finish line." "[Charissa] First up for Level 3 is David Manthei from Germany." "The top two at the end of this level will move on to Level 4, where they could win $10,000." " [Terry] It's called Ejector." " [Charissa] Exactly." "[Terry] That's what it's called." "[Terry and Charissa exclaim]" "[Charissa] With one hand!" "He is holding on!" "Yes, David!" "[Charissa groans] He misses the Point Thruster, which could've given him another 30 points." "[Terry] It took everything he had just to recover to get both hands on the rope." "[Charissa] He did it, and now he's making his way through Coil Crawl." "And as you can see, that thing is sinking fast, so he's gonna need to find his way through that as quickly as possible." "[Terry] Yeah, the key here is speed and balance, because you're out the second all four of your limbs touch the water." " I'm thinking he is not going to make it." " Me too." "[Terry] He's got a great grip." "There he goes!" "He's out." "He did it!" "Wow, he shut my mouth." "I'll never talk about a German again." " [Anderson] Me neither!" " Those Germans just shut my mouth." "[Charissa] He's got a big decision now:" "go right and finish the level with the Extraction, or you go left on the rear leg of the Beast and attempt the bonus obstacle for more points." "[Terry] Yeah, he's going for the bonus points!" "That's a smart move here." "Only two competitors will move on to the final level, so he needs to rack up as many points as possible." "There is $10,000 and a spot in the Ultimate Beastmaster finals on the line, so at this point, every move is crucial." "[Charissa] He's moving to the Bungee Beds, and these platforms, remember, they're only suspended with elastic bands." "[Terry] Yeah, and those things are really unstable." "He's gonna have to maneuver very carefully to that third platform without touching the ground if he wants to score the points." "You almost have to be cat-like with your leaps here." "Oh, oh, he holds on!" "Look how unstable that is!" " It is a matter of centimeters." " Lie down, man." "And he is falling!" "He couldn't hold it!" "[Charissa] He kept his body from touching the ground right there." "He is safe, and he's really concentrating on his balance right now." "[Terry] He's showing off big-time body control here." "Now, if your balance is off by even a millimeter, these Bungee Beds are gonna toss you." "[in English] Looks so easy, but it's so hard." " [Terry] A gamble." " [Charissa] Gamble, right there!" "[Terry] Look how he holds on!" "Great job on that third Bungee Bed." " David Manthei!" " [Charissa] That gives him 40 points." "[Terry] Now he's gonna attempt Tricky Trapeze, and he'll need some momentum and big-time arm strength." "[Charissa] He got it." "The average person would have a difficult time holding themselves up, but David is used to training with his own body weight, so that should be a huge advantage here." "[Terry] It should be, but it looks like he's struggling a bit." "Oh, he doesn't know what he's gonna do." "And there he goes into the fuel." " And he is falling!" " He fell!" "He had the rope in his hand, but he could not hold on!" "[Terry] He just didn't get enough momentum, and you can only hang there for so long before your arms give up." "[Charissa] Next up is the first competitor from South Korea, Jinbong Lee." "Here comes Jinbong Lee!" "[both] Go, Korea!" "Jinbong!" "[Terry] The South Korean hosts are clearly excited that they have both of their competitors in Level 3!" "[countdown clock beeps]" " Yes, a good start." " Very good." " And now..." " Grab it!" "[Terry and Charissa exclaim]" "[Charissa] And with that, the hopes of an all-Korean final are crushed." "[Terry] He's running, he gets a jump..." " [Charissa] And loses his grip." " [Terry] He's on the rope." "[Terry] He tried that one-hand thing and could not get the other hand." "It's harder... than it looks." "[Charissa] Up next is the second and last competitor from South Korea, Koohun Lee." "Lee Koohun, here he comes..." "It's good to be Top 5." "I want to see what I can do on Level 3." "[countdown clock beeps]" "[Terry] He needs to double those points to have a chance of moving on." "And now..." " Very good." " Koohun Lee." "[Terry] Oh, man!" "[groaning]" "[Terry] He mistimed everything." "He's so focused on the rope..." "[Charissa] He forgot that he had to jump." "[Terry] Yeah, and you gotta jump." "You shouldn't wait for the jump point." "[Charissa] Koohun Lee scored zero points for that run, keeping his total at 120, and he has officially been eliminated." "His countryman Jinbong Lee stays on the bubble, and still has a chance to qualify for Level 4." "Next up is Ed Moses from where, Terry?" "[both chanting] USA!" "USA!" "[Ed] I'm the only American that made it this far." "I've been here before." "I've had the whole pressure of the country behind me, on my back." "I like it." "I like it." "I welcome it, and I'm going to represent us really well." "[Charissa] With 160 points, all he needs to do is make the first jump and he will crack the top two and eliminate Jinbong Lee and South Korea's chances." "[Terry] Let's see if Ed Moses can lead the exodus into Level 4!" " Go!" "Run!" "Oh, that's backward running!" " [Charissa] All right, but..." " [Terry] Time it up and jump!" " [Charissa] Run!" "Now run!" " [Charissa] Now run!" " [Terry] I think he's slow." " [Terry] But he's got it!" "Oh, goodness." " [Charissa] Oh, nice!" "[Terry] He missed the Point Thruster, but that's okay." "[Charissa] He's got 190 points." "Jinbong Lee of South Korea has been eliminated." "[Terry] Great job." "Now he goes into Coil Crawl, and now it starts to sink." "He's gotta make his way through." " [Charissa] And it's sinking fast." " [Terry] Very fast." "[Charissa] Right now, Ed has 220 points, but Johannes Gmelin has 160, and he still has yet to go." "So, Ed needs to get himself pretty far to give himself a little cushion." " [Terry] Making great time." " [Charissa] He's gotta reach." "[Terry] Oh!" "He'd better hurry." "He's got one more chance." " [Charissa] Get up!" " [Terry] He's got one chance." " Come on, Ed!" " Get on up!" "[both] Come on, Ed!" "Come on, Ed!" "Oh... [both groaning]" "[Charissa] That hurts." "That puts him in second position." "[Terry] Mm-hmm." "[Charissa] Ed made a great jump off the Ejector, but he didn't get enough air trying to escape Coil Crawl, and that was it for him." "I mean, I'm one of the better athletes out here." "I should be in the final two." "I had it." "I let my opportunity slip." "I did the hard part, and I couldn't catch up." "But..." "I don't believe in miracles, but I need one right now." "[Charissa] Two hundred and twenty points puts Ed Moses of the U.S. in second place, but will it be enough with Johannes Gmelin yet to go?" "It all comes down to this." "Will it be Ed Moses in the finals or will it be Johannes Gmelin of Brazil?" "This motivates me to have a great performance." "If I am here, I will take this title to Brazil." "I need to take it to Brazil." "[Charissa] Johannes has been atop the board throughout the levels." "[Terry] This is the guy to beat!" "Ladies and gentlemen, now for our Brazilian!" "[both chanting] Brazil!" "Brazil!" "[sighing, chanting]" "We are a bit goofy, but that's because we are rooting for our Johannes, who has qualified in the first position." "And, folks, he needs to get to the Prism Strike ropes." "The last of the Mohicans." "Okay, Anderson." "I'm turning around." "I can't watch." " Oh, man..." " I'm not watching." "I'm going to hide." "I can't watch, either." "I'm going with you." "[Rafinha] Let's see how they react." "[Terry] I gotta watch." "It's too crazy!" "[Charissa] Johannes has 160 points." "He'll need to earn more than 60 to overtake Ed Moses and make it to the finals." " I can't watch." " Oh, I gotta watch." "[countdown clock beeps]" " [Rafinha] Let's go, Johannes." " Look at him, man." " [Anderson] Let's go, for God's sake." " He left!" " Easy, easy, easy." " Let's go!" "[all exclaiming]" "[Terry] Oh, a surprise upset!" " Ed Moses from USA!" " Ed Moses!" "USA!" "USA!" "I can't believe it!" "Aah!" "[Terry] Let me tell you, that was a sigh of relief from Ed Moses." "[Charissa] USA is now moving on." "In what has to be a shocking development, the leader in the first two levels, Johannes Gmelin of Brazil, will not be moving on to the finals." "Qué pasa?" "[Terry] Man, people are waiting to get to that edge to jump, and you gotta jump before." "I slipped in the end." "I slipped, lost my balance at the time of the jump." "That sucks." "That sucks." "What a competition, Terry!" "At the end of Level 3 the only survivors are David Manthei and Ed Moses." " USA!" "USA!" " Yeah!" "But now, they have to take on the most feared obstacle on this course," " the Power Source." " That's right, Charissa." "[Terry] David and Ed show some impressive skills, but unfortunately only one will go home with $10,000 and the title Beastmaster." "Are you ready for this?" "I was born ready, Terry Crews." "Let's do this." "[Charissa] In Level 4, the scores are wiped clean, and the last two competitors will go head to head on the final obstacle we call the Power Source." "At the end of six minutes, the competitor who gets the most points will walk away with $10,000 and move on to the finals, where they'll have an opportunity to become the Ultimate Beastmaster." "[Terry] And if the score is tied after time elapses, then whoever's highest up on the tower will be the winner." "Here we go!" "It all comes down to this, Terry." "Oh, man." "Let's go, Ed!" "Come on, Ed, you've got this!" "[Charissa] David Manthei from Germany and our very own Ed Moses on the right." "[Terry] That's right." "All right." "Ed Moses swings wide a little bit." "You've got to secure your weight on these holds." "See, Ed's not securing his weight." "Falling off the wall and having to regroup is gonna put you further behind." "You've got to be a little patient here, too." "[Charissa] This is an 80-foot tower, four sections total." "They are in the Foundation part of Level 4 right now." "Each one of these Energy Taps are worth ten points." "Ed Moses is making up ground on David Manthei, but they are nearly neck and neck." "[Terry] Now we can see Ed being more patient, securing his weight, and it's paying off." "Oh, now David Manthei falls off!" "Looks like he's not securing his weight, either." "[Charissa] Ed Moses now has a slight edge and a ten-point lead." "Ed Moses, doing his best to get into the next section of Level 4, which is Grid Lock." "They're the small cracks, there, zigzags." "Good luck, by the way, trying to get your fingers and toes in there." "Now David Manthei is back in the lead." "[Terry] Ed Moses, he's falling off again, and now David retakes the lead!" "Now, there's no need for him to panic." "Just has to stay focused." "There's still plenty of time left." "Oh, David gets another one." "Come on, David." "Pull yourself up." "[in English] Let's go, David!" "[Terry] Come on, USA!" "[Hans] Yeah, David!" "Pull yourself up." "[chanting] USA!" "USA!" "USA!" "[Charissa] Let's go, Ed!" "[Terry] Here we go!" "Let's go!" " [Charissa exclaims] - [Terry] Oh, they're exhausted." " [Charissa] Oh, David." "So close." " [Terry] Reaching for that one." "[Charissa] Come on, Ed!" "[in German] Come on, David!" "He will get the next points." " [Terry] There you go." " [Charissa] Yes!" "Good job, Ed!" " [Terry] He's got another one!" " [Charissa] Good job, Ed!" "[Charissa] Thataway, Ed!" "Good job, Ed!" " [Terry] Let's go!" " [Charissa] Good job!" "Come on, Ed!" "If he pushes his foot up, he can get that other one." "Oh, but David Manthei!" "[Terry] With less than 15 seconds left." "Those slits are small, but you've got to keep pushing, Ed!" "[both] Eight, seven, six..." "[Terry] Five seconds, come on!" "Three, two, jump!" "One!" "Ohh!" "[upbeat instrumental music playing]" "David Manthei won $10,000!" "[Luke] David!" "[cheers]" " [Charissa] He's so upset." " [Terry] He's hurting." "I thought Ed had that." "[Terry] Aw..." "David Manthei is tonight's Beastmaster!" "[Charissa] He sure is, and he also has a ticket to the finals, where he could win $50,000 and, of course, that opportunity to be the Ultimate Beastmaster." "I won." "Unbelievable." "I am so happy!" "[both singing] Germany!" "Germany!" "Germany!" "It is as if my heart was beating in my fingertips." "I am Beastmaster, and want to become Ultimate Beastmaster." "[crowd cheering] [upbeat instrumental music continues]" "[instrumental music playing]"
