Making it to the American Ninja Warrior National Finals is a feat, no matter if you hit the buzzer on Stage One, or fall on the first obstacle. Standing on that start line is the culmination of years of training, fighting through the Qualifying course, taking on the City Finals course, and rising to the top of the field through it all.
Read a recap of night one here.
