American Ninja Warrior!

Tonight I watched the Finals of American Ninja Warrior. No one had ever beaten stage 3 before in all 7 seasons. But tonight it was different. Tonight 2 people got to the end of Stage 3. The two people were the modern day Popeye, Geoff and part of the Wolf Gang, Isaac. Both made it to the top of Mount Midoriama. Geoff was the first to climb and he climbed 75 feet straight in 30 seconds. He had 0.35 seconds to spar. Geoff was the first American to ever beat 'the mountain'. Isaac climbed next and made it in just over 26 seconds. So Isaac was given the title American Ninja warrior and he won $1,000,000. In the beginning ,there were 38 contestants that got to try Stage 2. Then there were 8 that got to try Stage 3. Only two made it to Stage 4 and both of them made it to the top in less than 30 seconds. I really enjoyed watching the finale!
