In Ninja, failure equals motivation — a chance to do better, a reason to work harder. Although success is sweet, failure is key. It proves that Ninjas are pushing their limits. They’re not afraid to try and they are not afraid to fail.
Use these proudly posted Ninja fails as motivation to get out of your comfort zone and try something new.
Season 11 rookie, Lindsey Partenio, shows us that sometimes failures happen when you least expect them...and laughter is often the best medicine.
We love Halei Jo Fuller’s commitment to always be herself, and we love her enthusiasm both before and after this Salmon Ladder fail.
Daniel Gil shows us that if you’re going to fail, you might as well fully appreciate it with a slow-mo video.

As fans, it’s easy for us to say, “just get back up and try again.” But these Ninjas actually do...even when it’s hard. They have the long-term vision to know the benefits, and they make us proud with their strong-will and perseverance. Kudos to you, Ninjas!
