Who would’ve thought that Kaden would’ve made the list? For This Season! I bet most people were thinking that Kaden will never be on this list EVER but now unfortunately he is :(
Yeah I agree, if they fall they should be out (besides safety pass) Like it’s fine for qualifiers but this is where they are giving away 1 million dollars, they should be perfect.
@@WillMaletic I personally dislike safety pass as well. It shouldn't be a thing at all. Any time you fail in Stages 1-4 you should be instantly out. On the other hand Speed Pass is probably the best addition ANW has done. It's fantastic
@@mikulitsi1819DD won it by using his safety pass. The speed pass was only used for one season as it reduced the leaderboard from 15 to 12, and the producers just thought: “No. you have to earn yourself a spot for the National Finals via leaderboard”. Only Geoff Britten had the perfect season, but he was bested by Isaac Caldiero (who fell on the 9th obstacle on the Kansas City Finals) on the final Stage by seconds to spare and missed out on 1 Million Dollars.
@@AlanovMaster64 I know that and I hated it despite also being happy for Drew at the time (before the infamous news came out) I don't mind people failing semis or city finals as those aren't the important stages. However I do despise safety pass. It's a shame speed pass isn't used because that was perfect imo
Most shocking failure in semifinals was of Ian Dory, Grant McCartney,Ryan Stratis and Jessie Graff these all were the fan favourite and thought to make it back to Vegas but they all failed and this is really shocking of this season
Check the sasukepedia wiki. Some people published what they saw. In fact, last I checked they found out stage 3, stage 1, and the first qualifier course.
Red side is obviously rigged. Plus, there wasn’t even a ‘higher seed on blue’ rule or stuff like that. It was CLEARLY rigged. Placed Jera Boyd on the red side because they don’t like him at people want Joe to make it for (Jera has been fast forwarded every run of this season even though he was a second off of the safety pass race and got the mega wall), put Alex Romer on the red side so people could see a rookie they knew from other non televised ninja shows, put Kaden on the red side to get attention, put Kyle Soderman on the red side probably because they felt like he wasn’t popular enough, put Josiah Pippel on the red side (idk why they did it but it was still pretty rigged), etc.
Jera’s fail wasn’t shocking at all. He was forced to fail because he didn’t do some sort of ‘hand over hand’ move that barely made the obstacle easier. Plus, they don’t like Jera. Didn’t give him the call for S16, fast forwarded his qualifier run where he got the Mega Wall, fast forwarded his semifinal run even though he was a second from beating Kaden, and cut half his stage three run.
The ones I think were: Kaden Lebsack on Stage 2, Vance Walker on Stage 2, Daniel Gil on Semifinals and Stage 2, Noah Meunier and Josiah Pippel for the Safety Pass, Austin Gray on Stage 3, and finally, my current favorite, Enzo DeFerrari Wilson on Stages 2 and 3.
Jessie Graff took 3 attempts to beat Stage 1, Allyssa Beird took 2 attempts and Jesse Labreck took 5 attempts to beat the course. This year, Taylor Greene was the top woman of the season, but at the end no woman bested the course. If Taylor returns, how many attempts do you expect from her to beat the course?

Isaac caldiero’s should count as a “true total victory” as well because he only fell in a preliminary round to the actual mount midoriyama. For instance if there was a sasuke trials and someone falls on an obstacle, but then makes it into sasuke and gets total victory, that would count
@@maxtonbrannon13 exactly, that’s another reason the prelims shouldn’t matter for “true total victories”. They’re inconsistent, not everyone faced the same courses

Some of us thought Brandon Mears would make it all the way because he is a veteran
Plus this is his last season of the show, and they wanted him to do well!
Count how many times people have fallen on the red side of Epic Air Surfer.
Yea. Elijah Browning had like 3x the swing of Kaden, but his didn’t budge while kadens slipped off like butter.

what a season this was, im dying to see what's in store for s16
I was in the stands at the very bottom left in the qualifiers stands INFRONT of spinning bridge

Sometimes for female competitors, unlike the men, it’s improbable to make it to Stage 2 the first year they are competing.

Josh
He went to a rocutrl
Bro Benjamin Drake was spinning in cart wheels
Every year I think it’s Donovan matoyers year
Kaden's fail isn't the most shocking fail because the red side is slippery and makes the competitors fall that goes on that side which is unfair.
It’s just the fact that he actually touched water after so many years
@@ninjaempire9093 if it was the blue side I would scream at the top of my lungs in shocked
