That is awesome.
Our next challenge, the Viking pull.
You're going to pull the boat.
I'd say that's pretty authentic.
What we're doing with this challenge
is pulling the Viking boat up a hill,
because it was somewhat of a real representation of how
those ships would have to move.
It's not too heavy of a pull, but I don't think any of us
really understands what it's going to feel
like going uphill with it.
The trailer and the boat together
are roughly 12,000 pounds.
Like, I think any of us would smoke it on flat ground.
But pulling it over this incline right
here is a lot more similar to what the Vikings were
doing going over a mountain.
Minus the logs, of course.
Yeah.
Right, so rules to this pull.
You're going to pull it 60 foot.
When the body crosses the line, that's going to be your time.
It's the quickest to 60 foot.
All right, Nick, you ready to do this?
Yeah.
Mark, set, go.
Nice, Nick, nice.
Feet, feet feet.
There you go.
Low and steady.
Low and steady, Nick.
Low, low. There we are.
Come on, Nick. - That's it.
- Viking strength. - There we go.
There we go. Good pull.
Come on, Nick.
I'm just-- I got to tap.
You're tapping out?
That's it?
Is the Viking wannabe tapping out?
All right.
Wow.
Whoa, whoa.
This is pretty poor, Nick, considering you're
the one who wanted to come here.
Well, my back starts to cramp.
I just flat out ran out of gas.
I'm not that big.
I'm not that heavy.
The taller you are and the heavier you are,
the easier that is.
I just couldn't finish it.
It was just that heavy.
I'm just disappointed in myself.
So he tapped out at 1:50.
Tell you what, two minutes solid pulling something's
tough. - Yeah.
Ready?
All right, Eddie.
Mark, set, go.
There you go, low, low, low.
[grunting]
Yes.
Feet, feet.
Come on, Eddie.
That's it.
You got five feet.
Let's go.
Almost done, Ed.
Come on, two more steps.
Let's go. Let's go.
- Done. - Done.
Done.
What's the time?
1:14:70.
1:14, nice.
Woo.
That was hard, no layoff.
Didn't you say that would be easy?
- That was easy. - Was that your comment before?
That was an easy-- easy hard pull, that was.
OK.
Easy and hard.
That was easy hard.
Oberst, you ready?
I want to beat Eddie really bad with this.
All right, let's go, Obie.
We've been rivals for many years.
He's kind of the English golden boy,
and I'm the American monster.
I got to win this.
Let's go.
Oberst, you ready?
OK, ready, set, go.
There you go.
Good.
Working, working, working.
Come on, Oberst, come on.
That's it.
Stay down and drive.
Get some. Get some.
Come on, Obie.
You got to work now.
Dig in.
It was so heavy, and it was so hard.
I almost passed out towards the end of it.
Come on.
1:09, 1:10, 11, 12.
That's it.
Done!
Woo.
Oh, [bleep] off.
That's right, baby.
[bleep] anywhere near.
Woo!
There's nowhere near.
That's how it's done.
1:14.16.
USA!
That's it, typical American just
screaming and pretend he's won.
This is the image of a champ.
It's a paper win.
I'm a champion.
I was really happy that I beat Eddie.
Eddie, he's like a fourth grader.
He didn't--
USA.
Know what, his body didn't cross the line.
It was just his hands.
I didn't do this.
Lovely.
Let's go, B. Give me a nod when you're ready.
On your mark--
Yeah.
--get set, go.
Nice, Brian.
Nice, B.
Brian Shaw literally ran up the hill with that boat.
Perfect rhythm, Brian.
Come on.
Keep that rhythm, Brian.
Come on, Brian.
37, 38.
Almost there.
Come on.
Two more, two more.
And done.
Ooh.
44:05.
Ooh.
That was big.
Woo.
44:05.
That was big!
Wow.
Yes.
That event is my event.
I knew I would crush these guys.
It was never in doubt.
We got to give it up to him.
He may be fat and ugly, but he is the best puller of the day.
I'll take that.
You could take back the ugly part.
[laughs] OK.
If the Vikings were pulling boats with me,
I would by far go down in history
as the best of Viking boat puller that ever lived.
It's the first Viking ship I've pulled.
Nice.
And I'm undefeated in Viking ship pulling now.
[laughter]
