A reality TV history-making moment never gets old featuring Johnny Bananas and his former teammate Sarah Rice from The Challenge.
The two castmates became rivals, providing a perfect reason to partner them up for MTV’s The Challenge: Rivals III season in 2016.
Ultimately they got past their differences and worked effectively throughout the season to reach the final, which they won together.
However, Sarah, host Tj Lavin, castmates, production, and viewers all watched speechless as Bananas made a shocking decision thanks to a big twist, giving him all the prize money.
That’s still talked about to this day and even recently made it into an episode of MTV’s The Challenge documentary series.

In a recently-revealed clip from The Challenge: Untold History, viewers can take a trip down memory lane with some of the Og cast members who were part of the show’s early evolution.
Initially, MTV’s The Challenge didn’t involve the extra-fancy production, an extensive cast of reality TV stars, or even a big money prize, as competitors roughed it in an Rv.
Those early years brought Real World and Road Rules together to see which cast might win bragging rights for various missions, among other random prizes they received. Money was on the line at times, but never near the amounts competitors battle for today.
The show’s earliest cast members included legends like The Godfather Mark Long, Darrell Taylor, Jon Brennan, Theo von Kurnatowski, and Veronica Portillo.
