After 16 qualifying episodes, American Ninja Warrior has arrived at the semi finals! The youngest age group, the 9-10 years old, started things off. Things have changed a little bit since the qualifiers. It’s now single elimination. You win or you’re out. The semi finalists where quickly whittled down to the four competitors moving on to the finals.
And there’s a lot on the line. The first place Ninja gets $15,000. Second place takes home $7500. Third place earns $5000 and fourth place gets $2500. That’s nothing to sneeze at!
With the pressure ratcheted up, the Ninjas absolutely delivered. We even saw one competitor set a new record time, and then beat it in just his next round! You can find the full results and finalists below.
