Thirty finalists return to Venice Beach with a chance to land one of 15 spots in Las Vegas. In addition to the qualifying round's 6 obstacles, athletes must tackle 4 additional challenges--including the all-new Cannonball Alley! With one obstacle taking out half the field on its own, it'll be a brutal race against time to qualify for a date with Mt. Midoriyama. Watch as "The Godfather" himself David Campbell proves he's still got it, walk-on Kevin Bull completes a hanging backflip, and several veterans go splash. Is it possible for things to actually get harder?
