10 out-of-context thoughts from the National Finals

We’re back! We spent last week out in Las Vegas for the taping of the American Ninja Warrior National Finals. As usual, it was a very long week of overnight tapings and so, so many surprises. We’re still trying to readjust to a daytime schedule but we needed to finish out our trilogy of “out-of-context” articles.

This season, we’ve brought you little teasers from the Qualifiers and the Semifinals in the form of 10 out-of-context thoughts from the tapings. Just some random thoughts that stuck with us after we went home. No spoilers, but a little something for the fans to think about. Below, we have our 10 out-of-context thoughts from the National Finals.

Remember, we could be talking about Stage One, or maybe not. A lot happens in Vegas and we’re keeping these very vague to preserve the suspense! Season 13 of American Ninja Warrior is less than a week away. The Qualifiers kick off on Monday, May 31 at 8 pm EST on NBC.

10 out-of-context thoughts from the National Finals

1.) Is... that Ninja going to puke on the course? They look like they might actually puke.

2.) F.I.N.A.L.L.Y.

3.) This.

4.) Well, THAT ended quickly.

5.) ....I am very bad at predictions.

6.) I would have never thought that obstacle would take out so many competitors.

7.) Also this.

8.) HA. Of course (redacted) pulled that off. I shouldn’t have imagined anything less.

9.) Everyone is going to expect me to say something about squirrels again, but I’m not going to do it.

10.) It wouldn’t be the National Finals if I didn’t leave with emotional whiplash.
