The Ninjas are back for another shot at $1 million in American Ninja Warrior. The reality competition series features some of the most athletic people on the planet as they compete in obstacle courses that test their physical and mental strength. Competitors must get through the qualifiers and semifinals to earn the right to compete in Las Vegas at the National Finals, which includes the daunting rope climb known as Mount Midoriyama. Geoff Britten, Isaac Caldiero, and Drew Drechsel are the only competitors in the series’ history to complete all four stages at the National Finals and achieve Total Victory.

The 15th season of American Ninja Warrior will implement new changes to the format. The Mega Wall is even taller, standing at 18-and-a-half feet. The semifinals will also include head-to-head races between the ninjas, so it’s win or go home. Matt Iseman, Akbar Gbajabiamila, and Zuri Hall are back to host the new season. The road to Total Victory starts tonight.
