Adam Mihm, a native of Collier Township, was one of the contestants. He told Channel 11 last month what it was like.
“It’s a pretty awesome experience with the cameras and the lights and everything,” Mihm said. 
Olympic hockey goaltender Brianne McLaughlin was also a contestant. She told Channel 11 the course is tough.
"A lot of this is upper body and grip strength," she said.

The show is a spin-off of the Japanese television series “Sasuke” and it is now in its seventh season.
