  • In this women's quarterfinal, we have Maria Nichting of Cincinnati, Ohio, a human services worker, and Susan Hirst of Glendale, Arizona, an airforce captain. In the men's quarterfinal, it's Wesley Keck of Arlington, Texas, a firefighter, and Chris Vopatek of La Jolla, California, a bouncer.
    Powerball: Contenders try to score points by depositing balls into baskets and avoid being tackled by three Gladiators.
    The Wall: The contenders attempt to scale a rock climbing wall, being chased by Gladiators.
    Atlasphere: The contenders and Gladiators battle in spherical metal cages. The contenders must stand on scoring pods while the Gladiators try to stop them.
    Assault: The contender must attempt to hit a target while a Gladiator shoots at them using a tennis ball cannon.
    Joust: The Gladiator and contender face off for 30 seconds on elevated platforms. They must knock each other off with pugil sticks.
    Breakthrough & Conquer: The contender must face two Gladiators in this two-part event. First, they need to score a touchdown against the first Gladiator. Then the contender must wrestle the second Gladiator, forcing them to step outside of a ring.
    The Eliminator: The Eliminator is an obstacle course spanning the arena, the winner of which advances to the next round of the competition.

    It’s 2:30 am and I’m watching an episode of this with my 9-year-old that can’t sleep. He’s loving it. I’ve had an urge for a couple weeks to watch some old American gladiators and amazingly a couple weeks ago uploads started happening. It was meant to be. Please keep this up. There’s an audience here.

      Yes, Season 3 was the best season with enough new and fun games added. The games added in the later seasons were boring. Plus Season 3 mark the season when most of the OG gladiators were back, even Zap, Lace bulked up and gained 20-lbs. Then came Season 4 where most the OG gladiators had left the show.

    Warning- The gladiators and contestants are highly trained athletes and have a lifetime of experience, but they are not invincible. Bodies have been broken, necks broken, concussions inflicted, lives shattered, and careers ended in an instant. Although it is entertainment, the hazards are real, and the contestants and gladiators take real risks, endure unimaginable pain, and put their bodies, their careers, and their lives on the line.
    Don't risk yours!
    Be Smart!
    Be Safe!
    PLEASE DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME, SCHOOL OR ANYWHERE ELSE!!!
