00:00Dreaming of being in the W.W.U. is
00:29one thing doing what it takes to get there is another thing altogether people
00:34watch tough enough and say that looks easy they say they could do it better
00:37they claim to have the desire and determination to make it into the WWE so
00:41this season we wanted to find out if they could before giving them that once
00:45in a lifetime golden opportunity
00:51out of thousands of tapes we chose the best 75 to audition just to see who
00:57they are from there we picked the best we had to undergo the most heartbreaking
01:02ball-busting backbending test that we could possibly think of in tough enough
01:07history
01:11for the first two seasons of tough enough we had a huge audition and a casting
01:17extravaganza this year we decided to get a little bit more intimate we did what we
01:21called a regional casting where we went to three different cities Chicago Denver
01:26and New Orleans
01:29first of all let me welcome you all to New Orleans and congratulations you've
01:34proven yourself by your tapes and your force of your own personality it's
01:39important that you show the judges today why you want to be a part of tough enough
01:44three and we're taking the best of the best I am here to show you guys that I'm
01:50tough enough I think I could be a really great high flyer I'm 6'2 I'm 245 pounds I
01:55love wrestling it's a passion of mine I've wanted to do it since I was like 12
01:58would you shave your head for a contract with WWE
02:04what's what they hear do you want me to shave my head I have a drive and
02:10determination to be a part of this company when you take a bump you have to
02:13learn how to do it right I can still remember what colors Hulk Hogan wore
02:16when I was in first grade when I saw it I like challenges this year the audition
02:19process was dramatically different it allowed us to get involved with and get
02:24in touch with who these these kids really were and to see what their
02:27motivations were for going on the show I believe this might be a little bit
02:31easier way to get there I love being in front of camera then I don't believe
02:34that you want to be a wrestler just to be a wrestler just because I don't watch it
02:37faithfully all the time doesn't mean that I won't want to do it you learn a lot from
02:42these interviews probably a little bit more than you want to know Joe do you
02:45have a girlfriend I do you sound like you're a little hesitant about saying
02:51that you got one I've been involved with a girl who is my girlfriend and then I you
02:57know I was walking the streets of Chicago I see this girl coming down the
03:00street she goes Jonah it was the girl and she's in this competition my first name
03:05is Jill if I told you the story Cindy Crawford's husband owns a bar in a club in Boston called
03:11Whiskey Park and Jonah walks in right off the bat five minutes of me knowing him he tried to kiss me
03:17my girlfriend she she called this on the cell phone this number that she saw that
03:20she didn't recognize and this girl goes um who's this and I'm like who's this I'm like you
03:26called me she's like this is Jonah's girlfriend who is this I was just like that son of a bitch I
03:31hated him and I really liked him a lot of sexual tension in there it says here you
03:37got a eight gauge Prince Albert it's a penis piracy it's a barbell goes straight through the head of
03:42your straight through wow I'm waiting till I get married and they all think it's a real
03:47big joke because some girls bit it off this is what I did what would your mom say if she saw the
03:58tape you sit into by the way did I mention endurance also they can't show that on TV man no no it ain't
04:11happening man no I don't even want to think what's happening and now the real fun begins we've narrowed

06:15what everyone knows me is

06:19I know this is a competition and I'm not going to forget it
06:23I came here to win
06:25I'm the best athlete in this entire competition
06:29I just could not go to sleep last night because I was just a little excited
06:34you know this is the first day of my new life
06:35I got my wisdom teeth pulled three days before I came here
06:40inside I wanted to die
06:41because I'm like this is my time to shine
06:43this is my time to
06:44for everyone to see who I really am
06:46and this is what they're going to see
06:47as you go in
06:51sit down and be quiet
06:52I'm going to dress you
06:53talk to you a little bit about the program
06:54you're going to go through for the next couple days
06:56you're purely trying to figure out
06:58what each day would be like
06:59maybe something like last year
07:02maybe backpacks
07:03trying to put backpacks on
07:04good luck to all of you
07:05yeah
07:05thank you
07:06woo
07:06I knew behind the door
07:15there was a little something surprise
07:17you know
07:18it opens up and it's like
07:20it's the most amazing thing I've ever seen
07:22and the banners
07:23you got Al Snow
07:24you got Bill
07:24you got Ivy right in the ring
07:26it was breathtaking
07:27it kicked in that this is not going to be pleasant
07:40I think at that point
07:41it really hit people that
07:42yeah we're here
07:43you know it's time to go
07:45there's going to be WWE judges that will be here
07:53walking around the ring evaluating you
07:55you're being evaluated at all times
07:58this is a competition
07:59out of you 25 only 13 will make it
08:01this is a test of champions
08:04this is my house
08:06now for 12 years
08:09and for 12 more
08:11not one of you has earned anything yet
08:14to earn my respect
08:15it starts today
08:17sometimes I will be your best friend
08:20sometimes I'll be your worst enemy
08:21I don't care
08:22you told me verbally
08:24you will do whatever it takes
08:26to be a tough enough champion
08:28we're going to find out
08:30Wendell get those damn sunglasses off right now
08:33come Monday we will be talking to half of the people in this room
08:38so look around
08:39because the person sitting next to you
08:42is a loser
08:45who are the winners
08:47at that moment I realized that I mean nothing
08:54I am nothing
08:56I have to earn everything that I get
08:58each of you will stand up as I point to you
09:01you will introduce yourself
09:01tell me a little bit about yourself
09:03you'll step back down
09:04and we'll go down the way
09:05it's easy for me to stand up here and tell you that
09:07I have what it takes
09:09I think the best way for me to do it is to prove it
09:11I've been in the ring twice before
09:12and I think I'm more prepared for this than anyone else
09:14I want Wendell to be at Trax
09:16and to be a part of tough enough
09:17because I feel this kid has everything that it takes
09:20I have lost my home
09:22I've lost my apartment
09:23I don't have any support from my family
09:26but the risk is worth it to me
09:28every day if I don't get close to dying
09:31an inch of my life
09:32then it's not going to be worth it
09:34I came out of the womb for one reason
09:36one reason only
09:36and that's for this
09:37I'm ready
09:38and I won't be broken
09:39I'm saying right now
09:41I won't be broken
09:42is that a challenge?
09:45yeah it's a challenge
09:46I ain't got all day
09:53come on James

09:57move move move
09:58don't you stop
10:00come on go for it
10:01up the arm
10:02let's move
10:03what's wrong
10:03no I have allergy triggered asthma
10:06my chest started to get tight
10:08and I knew that an asthma attack
10:10was about to take place
10:11shake this thing off
10:19and get back in this thing
10:20understand me?
10:21it's a extreme pressure situation
10:25I mean you can't take anything for granted
10:27eyes are on you all the time
10:29so you can't slack off
10:30you've really got to be intense
10:31you've got to put your heart into it
10:3350
10:3350
10:3450
10:3550
10:35all the way down
10:3636
10:37step out
10:40step out
10:4150
10:41come on
10:42come on Wendell
10:44come on Chad
10:45what you do means everything
10:46everybody in this room said whatever it takes
10:49you sat here and challenged everybody else in the room
10:57and said you're going to win
10:58and your chest is hitting the mat like a girl
11:01that's not whatever it takes
11:02it's amazing to me how fast things change once the world actually starts
11:07I'm watching everybody while they're doing the calisthenics
11:10and I notice Wendell's like not doing them exactly
11:13he's kind of like short
11:14short cutting it
11:15do them right Wendell
11:17and do them right
11:20these kids aren't even competitors yet
11:24in the actual Tough Enough 3 competition
11:26they're just here to audition
11:28we really can get inside them and find out who they really are
11:31if they really have the passion and the heart and the drive
11:34and then the talent
11:35the athleticism
11:37the skill and the charisma
11:38before they ever even step foot in that house
11:40and actually get to compete for a WWE contract
11:43the next thing I knew Wendell was falling all over the place
11:46stretch it out people
11:47Wendell
11:49get up
11:50now
11:51come on man
11:52get up
11:54and do it or get out
11:56the minute that I walk over towards him
11:58he started stumbling around like he was on the verge of passing out
12:01this isn't my first rodeo
12:03and I was not convinced
12:04there's something physically wrong with you
12:06stand up
12:09it's great to see people fatigue
12:13that are your competition
12:15because it makes you drive that much harder
12:17go sit down
12:19get up
12:21and go sit down and quit playing
12:23I do not have time for this
12:26you were fine just two minutes ago
12:29standing perfectly
12:30sit down
12:33medic, Dan, take a look at him
12:35even though I don't think you need to
12:37Wendell needs to
12:38probably
12:40you know dig down deep
12:42and pull out what it really is
12:44that drives him
12:45finding that area of him
12:46that really wants this
12:48if you can't make it through this
12:49part of it
12:50you ain't making it through anything
12:51I want this more than anybody
12:53lay down on the floor
12:55I push myself like this all the time
12:57yeah I can tell Wendell
12:58don't doubt me
13:00hey mother
13:01I want this more than anybody
13:03I told you
13:03I'll show you
13:04don't patronize me
13:06and don't waste your time
13:07I'm not wasting my time
13:09irony
13:10I was too cocky
13:13irony
13:14anybody want to quit?
13:19any more drama?
13:21no sir
13:22the trainers are very tough
13:24they are incredibly intense
13:27if you slack off
13:29if you're cutting corners
13:30if you're doing something
13:30they're going to find out about it
13:32there's no shortcuts
13:33we're going to start simply
13:34put your head on the back
13:34we learned how to do
13:36front bumps by using our head
13:38and then it graduated to
13:40doing a handstand
13:41and from there
13:42it was without any arms
13:43we'll get up off the mat
13:45like this from now on
13:46every time
13:48plant your elbow
13:49or you plant your fist
13:51pull your knee
13:52your left knee up
13:52swing your right hip up
13:54and you can get up
13:54just like that
13:55I had no idea
13:56we were going to learn
13:57how to take bumps
13:58in the ring today
13:59I thought we were just
13:59going to do some
14:00physical stuff
14:01almost lost a head there
14:03what I would suggest
14:07you do is make the fist
14:08because otherwise
14:09you can take a chance
14:10on having somebody
14:11step on your fingers
14:12and break them
14:12it's not natural
14:21at all
14:22to take a bump
14:23most human beings
14:24don't fall on the ground
14:26on purpose
14:26it's like oh my god
14:31I'm going to land on my neck
14:32but I know how my body did it
14:33not bad
14:34get your head up
14:35I was picking up great
14:38I mean I really think
14:39I can do this
14:40I really do
14:41nice
14:42get up
14:43bring your hips over
14:44let's go
14:44taking a bump
14:45it affects so much
14:47of my mouth
14:47that I feel like
14:48I'm actually going to
14:49throw up blood
14:50it's the worst
14:53I've been in the ring
14:54I've been in the ring
14:54like two or three times
14:55I'm still going to beat
14:57all these other
14:57contestants here
14:59you're not wrong
15:00with your blood pressure
15:01no of course not
15:02the medic said
15:03there was nothing
15:04physically
15:05medically wrong
15:06with him
15:06shut up
15:08shut up
15:08don't talk to me
15:08don't say a word
15:10what Wendell's
15:10fails to realize
15:11is that I have seen
15:12people legitimately
15:13pass out from this stuff
15:14and they don't do
15:15what he was doing
15:15so it was a very
15:17poor acting job
15:18stay there
15:21can I say get up
15:22I'm not mine
15:23get up there
15:24look
15:25you barely supposedly
15:27had the strength
15:28to stand
15:28but you had the strength
15:30to rally back
15:31with passion and heart
15:33and tell me
15:33you'd be out there
15:34if you could
15:35how stupid
15:36do you think I am
15:37who and what you are
15:40and what you become
15:40are based on the
15:41decisions you make
15:42do you understand that
15:43because if you do
15:46one more episode
15:46of that
15:47I will grab you
15:49by the back of your
15:50pants and the back
15:50of your neck
15:51and I will personally
15:52stuff your ass
15:54out that door
15:54and nobody will
15:56stop me
15:56oh you're the mom
16:05here
16:06yeah I'm the mom
16:06I'm the mom
16:07yeah it's 25
16:08well I'm not that much
16:10older I'm just a lot
16:11more smarter
16:12I know that doesn't
16:14make sense
16:14a lot smarter
16:15a lot smarter
16:16he told me to come
16:19back or leave
16:20it didn't really have
16:21much of a mental
16:22effect
16:22I know I'd make a
16:23better wrestler than
16:24any other people here
16:25like I'm thinking
16:28about every guy here
16:29is like
16:30I want them to fail
16:32I want them to drop
16:33out
16:34I don't know like
16:39when I'm in the ring
16:40I feel I do them
16:41like perfect
16:42all the time
16:43this was just
16:43at a bar

19:51Again, back here at Trax.
19:53Okay, that's it.
20:06Morning, sunshine.
20:09Hurry up!
20:10Welcome to day two of the auditions for Tough Enough 3.
20:14Yesterday, we cut somebody who didn't live up to what we needed
20:19in order to be a part of Tough Enough 3.
20:22Keep that in mind as you're going through today.
20:25You're being evaluated how often?
20:26At all times.
20:27At all times.
20:29Trainers, you're all yours.
20:31I'd like to introduce a couple of our WWE judges.
20:34We've got the executive producer of WWE, Kevin Dunn,
20:38and then we also have the senior vice president
20:40of talent relations, Jim Ross, JR.
20:43If you can't get over your fear of the mat
20:46and the fear of impact, you're not gonna make it.
20:49The pressure's unbelievable.
20:51I want to do the best I can,
20:52and that's just the pressure I put on myself.
20:55If you don't make it, it's not gonna be
20:56because Al Snow didn't like me.
20:58It's because you couldn't do it.
21:01Wendell was a piece of crap,
21:03and he, I think, gave us all a bad name.
21:05I think they thought, man, did we pick the right people?
21:08When your body starts hurting,
21:09your concentration will falter.
21:12That's the challenge.
21:14We gotta get to start working.
21:14We gotta start sweating.
21:15Hill climbers.
21:17Oh, God.
21:18250.
21:19250, sir?
21:20Yep, 250!
21:23Get your knees up in your chest.
21:25Do you want to quit?
21:26No.
21:27You're gonna quit?
21:28No, sir.
21:29Go.
21:29No, sir.
21:30No, sir.
21:31No, sir.
21:32No, sir.
21:33No, sir.
21:34No, sir.
21:35No, sir.
21:36No, sir.
21:37There's your two options.
21:39You do it or you leave.
21:41Bill was right to get on me because I was exhausted.
21:45You keep moving.
21:46Keep moving.
21:47I need to perform better for him.
21:50You know, that's my goal now is to stick that right up his butt.
21:54Come on.
21:55Come on.
21:56Come on.
21:57Now, that's it.
22:00Get a drink of water.
22:02Come on, Bob.
22:04Chad is my biggest competitor.
22:06He's by far the biggest overall kid in here.
22:11Being 6'9", 250 pounds, I think it's an advantage.
22:15Yeah, I'm like, you know, it is.
22:16It's tough to put these long legs around.
22:19But, you know, at the same time, there's nothing I don't think I can do if I put my mind to it.
22:24Do not hold back on me.
22:26I'm the shortest guy by like three, four inches here.
22:36I feel like I have to prove myself at all times.
22:39A lot of times, big people think that they just have the world at their fingertips because
22:43they're big.
22:44Because they'll never expect someone like me to come up and bite them in the ass.
22:49Almost there, wasn't it?
22:51I'm baffled at my chances right now, like, because I'm pretty and I'm bad.
22:56And I'm not, like, extremely high in both.
23:02It's just psyching yourself out.
23:03It's a mental thing and they're not joking when they say mentally tough enough.
23:09All right?
23:14Breathe.
23:15Relax.
23:16You okay?
23:21Yep.
23:22Just relax.
23:23Breathe.
23:24Okay?
23:25Relax.
23:26Relax.
23:27Relax.
23:28Vula just cracked her head real good and it was scary for everybody.
23:32Breathe.
23:33Okay?
23:34Sorry.
23:35You have nothing to apologize for.
23:36You do anything, you don't know what to do.
23:37You got to make mistakes.
23:38Yeah.
23:39It's too bad that these mistakes hurt.
23:40You all right?
23:41Yeah.
23:42Get your ass up.
23:43Come on.
23:44Time's wasted.
23:46Time's wasted.
23:47You have to beat it.
23:48Yeah.
23:49You can do it.
23:50I've seen you do it.
23:51It's all in your head right now.
23:52I know.
23:53I know.
23:54Vula, come here.
23:55I want you to try it again one more time.
23:59Come on.
24:00Get in the ring.
24:01Get in the ring.
24:02Get your breath.
24:03Is that okay?
24:04Yeah.
24:05Throw your leg one time.
24:06Throw your arms.
24:08Damn.
24:09How was that?
24:10Doesn't hurt as bad when you don't hit your head, does it?
24:11Yeah.
24:12I guess I feel really, really out there and dizzy.
24:13And, uh, Bill referred to it as seeing colors.
24:18Stick it, girl.
24:19Come on, get in the ring.
24:20I'm in the ring.
24:21Get in the ring.
24:22Get your breath.
24:23Get in the ring.
24:24Get your breath.
24:25You back, okay?
24:26Yeah.
24:27Throw your leg one time.
24:28Throw your arms.
24:29Damn!
24:30How was that?
24:31Doesn't hurt as bad when you don't hit your head, does it?
24:32Yeah.
24:33I guess I feel really, really out there and dizzy.
24:34And, uh, um, Bill referred to it as seeing colors.
24:36One heart.
24:37Stick it, girl.
24:38Come on.
24:40Stick it, girl. Come on.
24:42Don't let it be you.
24:46Oh, okay. That was interesting.
24:48That was really ugly.
24:50Sarah was having quite a bit of trouble
24:52getting over herself, over her fear of herself.
24:56Fix it or go home.
25:03I just kept going to the side.
25:05I just wasn't doing them right.
25:06I had them yesterday, but today I just couldn't get it.
25:09Everybody solve Hula.
25:11And now everybody's going to be a little afraid.
25:12They're going to land on their head.
25:14If you let this beat you, then you will fail at this.
25:18If you don't believe in these trainers,
25:20if you start doubting them right now, you're dead.
25:25Hop out.
25:27You sent home for something that you did the first day
25:29and you're not doing now.
25:32That sucks.
25:33Sarah just looked scared.
25:35You know what I mean?
25:35I felt horrible for her.
25:38I wasn't doing it properly.
25:40I just couldn't quite get it.
25:41Now you're going to learn how to take a back palm.
25:43Trick is not to hit the back of your head.
25:45What you want to do, I want you to squat down like this
25:48the first couple times.
25:51Once you cross your arms, puck your chin,
25:53rock your hips, throw your shoulders,
25:55and just pull.
25:56And it's like somebody just pulls the rug right off
25:58through your feet.
26:00Relax.
26:01Your ass is tight enough I could put a piece of coal up there
26:04and have a f***ing diamond.
26:05Just relax.
26:06I dare you to move your ass.
26:09Do you have a girlfriend?
26:11Because if you do, she's going to drop you like a rock
26:13because you can't use this.
26:14Can't you?
26:15Don't move it.
26:15Don't move it.
26:16No, don't move.
26:16I told you yesterday.
26:17I'll put the air.
26:17Stick your f*** out.
26:19See?
26:19It's all in the hips.
26:20I'm going to let you roll up on the ball's feet.
26:22See that?
26:22See that?
26:23That action right there?
26:24That picks up chicks.
26:25Got it?
26:26Look.
26:27Look at the women.
26:28Look at them.
26:29They love it.
26:29That's awesome.
26:30See?
26:38Oh-ho!
26:40And we've got a winner.
26:41You okay?
26:46Ooh, that hurt.
26:48The pain wasn't getting better.
26:53Throbbing.
26:53It was crazy.
26:54I overcame it, and I did it.
26:56I was miserable, but I stuck through it.
26:59I'm not going to...
27:00There's no way that I'd ever quit.
27:05Did I teach you to get up that way?
27:08You need to place your forearm down on the mat
27:10and use your elbow as leverage to push yourself up off the mat
27:12because it's the safest way to do it.
27:14If your hand is flat out like that,
27:16somebody can go to pick you up,
27:18step right on your hand,
27:19and crush every bone in your hand.
27:21Take all day.
27:23Get up right.
27:26Nick put his hand down on the mat, not his elbow.
27:28We are taught a certain way to get up.
27:31Plant your elbow.
27:32Get up onto your knee.
27:33Step up onto your feet, all right?
27:35Nick didn't do it right.
27:39Still not right.
27:40And they were getting pissed off with it.
27:44What I want you to do is I want you to get up off that mat 50 times
27:47and say, I don't get up off the mat the right way each time.
27:49And do it quickly.
27:51I don't get off the mat right.
27:53Turn it up right now.
27:54Take it back, bump.
27:56Get up.
27:58I don't get off the mat right.
27:59I don't get off the mat right.
28:03I don't get off the mat right.
28:07I don't get off the mat right.
28:10It's painful to watch someone mess up,
28:12but I always think to myself,
28:13I wish I could get in there and do it for it.
28:16Push it down.
28:17You're pushing it, Nick.
28:18Come on, Nick.
28:18Come on, Nick.
28:19I don't get off the mat right.
28:21Boom!
28:22I'm going to get up right.
28:23Yeah.
28:24I don't get off the mat right.
28:25Right, right, right.
28:30Get up.
28:35Get up.
28:36Get up.
28:37Get up.
28:37Get up, Nick.
28:38I think they're trying to prove a point to everyone,
28:40so he just sort of had to pay that price.
28:42Stop.
28:43Out.
28:45Maybe we set a point now.
28:46Get yourself.
28:48Don't do it wrong again, Nick.
28:50Suck it up.
28:54I'm sore right now,
28:55but my adrenaline's still pretty high.
28:57I'd love to go back in the ring
28:58and just keep working at it.
28:59I know I could perfect it.
29:11Sarah?
29:14Keep your head together, girl,
29:15or you will be gone.
29:17Can't make it any clearer for you.
29:20Oh.
29:21I don't feel a bit sorry for you
29:22because you knew how to do it.
29:23You scared the hell out of me.
29:31You don't need to do that big run.
29:34You're diving headfirst almost into the mat.
29:36You're going to kill yourself.
29:38You know, it's hard for everybody.
29:39I mean, it was hard for me today,
29:40and I just tried to do my best,
29:42and I'm hoping that I got more in me
29:44because I'm pushing myself as hard as I can go.
29:46Do it the way you're taught.
29:48You can do it.
29:49Ooh.
29:50I don't even look anymore.
29:52Like, I'm scared, like,
29:53every time Vula goes around
29:55that she's going to hit her head.
29:57You either beat it or it beats you.
30:01Yes!
30:04When I got it,
30:05it was because I wasn't thinking about it.
30:06I almost didn't even know the difference,
30:08but when I looked at them,
30:10they were like,
30:10you got it!
30:11I was like, okay, okay, I got it!
30:12Guys, get your chairs.
30:16I think that we're all keenly aware
30:17of the fact that this is the final audition, correct?
30:20Yes, sir.
30:22What did I tell you
30:23when you guys were in the ring
30:24and you were doing things?
30:25That you had to either get it
30:26or you had to go home, correct?
30:28Yes, sir.
30:29As that is the case,
30:30we are going to make a cut today.
30:39You had to either get it
30:40or you had to go home, correct?
30:41Yes, sir.
30:43We are going to make a cut today.
30:51Sarah, I'm sorry.
30:52You're cut.
30:53Come up here.
30:55We appreciate your efforts.
30:58Wish you the best of luck.
31:02I can't say that they made a mistake cutting me.
31:04I obviously wasn't doing it,
31:05and if you're not going to do it,
31:06you don't deserve to be there.
31:09She couldn't overcome her mental fear
31:11of, you know, doing a front bump.
31:13After seeing her friend take one on the head,
31:16Vula got back up and did it.
31:17She overcame it.
31:19Sarah couldn't.
31:20I think the two cuts that were made
31:22in the last two days set a tone
31:24for what's going to happen.
31:25It was a rollercoaster day,
31:26and the rollercoaster went the right way for me.
31:30I hope that tomorrow goes the right way as well.
31:36Tough Enough is not complete without a challenge.
31:40And tomorrow, the challenge that you guys are going to go through
31:43is beyond classification.
31:45That's how tough it is.
31:47Be afraid.
31:48After the way that I've seen
31:49that they've raised the bar a little bit
31:51with this Tough Enough,
31:52I'm expecting something a little bit more difficult,
31:56a little bit more strenuous
31:57than what the other participants had to go through.
32:00I've been pushed to my limits
32:01and pushed further beyond my limits.
32:04After these days,
32:06you don't know what to expect.
32:07You're scared.
32:08It looks to be like some sort of death camp.
32:30Not quite sure what to expect.
32:32You know, there's going to be a lot of bodies laying around, I think.
32:35Everybody's feeling the same.
32:36I bet everybody's sore.
32:38Everybody's nervous.
32:39They want to do well.
32:40That's all.
32:42You think you really want to see me on Monday?
32:45Yes, Bill.
32:46Interesting.
32:47At the end of the day,
32:48we're going to find out
32:49who the 13 members of Tough Enough truly are.
32:52You're going to hop on your GT mountain bikes.
32:56The bike ride is a couple miles.
32:58Has anybody not ever been on a mountain bike before?
33:02Okay.
33:03When you get on the mountain bike,
33:04you'll see the gears are on both sides.
33:06Find the gear you're comfortable with.
33:07And get used to your brakes.
33:09I don't care who wins.
33:10Be safe.
33:11Finish the race.
33:13Everybody cool?
33:14Good luck.
33:16I'm not concerned about the difficulty
33:17or the extreme heat.
33:18It's just that fact that I just learned how to ride a bike.
33:25I think I'm too sure.
33:28I'm going to take a spill.
33:29Okay.
33:30I'm going to take a spill.
33:38Don't put your seat too low.
33:39You'll die.
33:41One way or another,
33:42these aggressor bikes get to the top of the mountain.
33:45It's not about who wins, guys.
33:47It's about heart.
33:48Here we go, guys.
33:49Good luck.
33:51Hit it.
33:51Let's go.
33:59Start riding the park.
34:02The road kind of curves off,
34:05and so you can see maybe about 50 yards up.
34:07And it was a good incline.
34:09And you think after this curve,
34:11it's going to kind of flatten off or slope down.
34:13And every turn was like that.
34:16Come on.
34:17Don't you give up.
34:18Come on.
34:19Get yourself rolling.
34:22You're cool.
34:22You're cool.
34:23You're going to give up, Scott.
34:23You can give up if you want.
34:24I'm not going to give up anything.
34:26Hop in the Mustang with me.
34:27Give up.
34:28Come on.
34:29Come on, Scott.
34:30Come on, Rebecca.
34:31Come on.
34:32There was no downhill.
34:33There was no,
34:34hardly any flat brakes.
34:37We're going up and up and up.
34:39You ride that bike every step of the way.
34:43Don't go off the side of the mountain, for God's sakes.
34:47Come on, Tara.
34:49That's the end right there.
34:50That stop sign right there.
34:51You finished strong.
34:52You proved to me, everybody else,
34:54that you want to be a part of this toughen up.
34:57Up over here, baby.
34:58Yeah!
35:00Yeah!
35:05How you feeling?
35:06I'm tired.
35:07You can't move it.
35:08I don't care if you're tired or not.
35:09Come on.
35:12Push the bike.
35:14Look up!
35:15Look up!
35:15Here's the finish!
35:17All the way up!
35:19All the way there!
35:20Yeah!
35:21Yeah!
35:21Yeah!
35:21Yeah!
35:23Where's Scott?
35:24He's coming right now.
35:25All the way up, Scott.
35:26Come on.
35:26Keep it going.
35:27Keep it going.
35:27Don't quit.
35:28Don't quit.
35:28All the way up.
35:30All the way.
35:31All the way.
35:34That was probably two and a half miles for everybody else.
35:37And for Scott, with all the zigzagging and weaving,
35:39it was probably 10.2.
35:40To Scott's credit, he never gave up.
35:43Okay, you guys made the first step of this challenge.
35:46You got your GT aggressors here to the top of the mountain,
35:48but it's not over yet.
35:49You have another couple mile run ahead of you.
35:51That was brutal.
35:52It was probably one of the hardest things I've done,
35:54and that was only half of it.
35:56I don't care who wins.
35:58I've said that 10 times now.
35:59I don't care who wins.
36:01Just get to the finish line.
36:02Let's do it.
36:03Go.
36:08Come on, Jonah.
36:09Stretch out your leg.
36:11Downhill for a thing.

37:11I'm proud of all of you.
37:11Give yourself a hand.
37:12Well done.
37:12Great job.
37:13Great job.
37:14You've made our decision going to be very difficult when we select the 13.
37:23All of you sit tight, and when we come back, we'll let you know who the 13 members of Tough
37:28enough three are.
37:29A little nervous, yeah.
37:30A little nervous, good competition.
37:31All these kids are great.
37:32Great kids.
37:33Anybody could beat 13, you know?
37:35I think they thought they were going to break me.
37:37I mean, I thought a couple times they were, too.
37:39But, so it's real cool for me to finish today.
37:43Uh, what goes into this decision is not necessarily just this challenge.
37:46It is everything else.
37:47It is in their in-ring.
37:48It's in-ring stuff.
37:49It's their charisma.
37:50And I think that we keep our list the way that it is.
37:53Okay.
37:54Well then we have our 13.
37:55I worked hard.
37:56I gave it everything I had.
37:57So, um, I feel like I deserve it.
38:00This decision that the judges made was a very difficult decision.
38:06And frankly, it's one of the most difficult things I've ever had to do.
38:11With that, I'm going to name the 13 members of Tough Enough 3.
38:17First on my list is Matt.
38:23Good job, Matt.
38:24Congratulations.
38:25I'm the flavor, baby.
38:27Next is Rebecca.
38:33Justin.
38:38Next name on my list is Jill.
38:41Woo!

39:14All the way!
39:15All the way!
39:16By the time Big got to five or six or seven, I was thinking, you know, like, maybe they weren't
39:18looking for someone to finish the race first.
39:19Maybe they were looking for something else.
39:20You start getting all these doubts, you get butterflies.
39:22Next name is John.
39:23Next name is John.
39:24Last name on my list is Kelly.
39:26It's Kelly.
39:32Going on the bike and going up the hill and that run was the hardest thing I've ever done.
39:33I'm like it's gonna hit the rails fast and it could do things like the other thing.
39:34I don't know.
39:35I don't know.
39:36It's goodCIAL.
39:37It's goodCIAL.
39:38It's been a great job so many years ahead of you can start getting all these doubts,
39:41you get butterflies.
39:42Next name is John.
39:46Last name on my list is Kelly.
39:53Going on the bike and going up the hill and that run was the hardest thing I've ever
39:59done.
40:00run was the hardest thing I've ever done. And I proved myself that no matter what I can do anything.
40:07If I can do that, I can do anything. Didn't even know how to ride a bike and had to pull it. I did
40:12it man. I'm living my dream right now. You guys are awesome. In the short term, you're going to
40:18piss me off. I'm definitely going to sulk and you can't keep your head down forever. Once you let
40:23they get the best of you, then you're in trouble. Life's all about timing. Being in the right place
40:27at the right time. And right now, it wasn't your time. Girl, you work hard. You deserve this.
40:36You're working hard. It's not the end. I just take it minute by minute, day by day. And whatever
40:42happens, happens. Whatever opportunity opens up and I can take advantage of it, I will. Thank you so much.
40:49Don't let this get you. I miss you guys. I miss you. Okay, guys. Good luck. Bye.
40:58During the next nine weeks, ten weeks, however long this is, if you feel like quitting at all,
41:03then you think of them. You owe it to them and the other thousands of people sending tapes
41:08to suck it up. Keep that in mind, okay? Congratulations. I'm happy for all of you. Great job.
41:19You're almost home, but you're not quite there yet.
41:21You've got one more challenge. You've got to get from here to there, for that's your new home.
41:27I don't know what you're waiting for. Don't break your ankles. Go. Sleep anywhere you want.
41:42Grab your ankles. Grab your ankles.
41:45I don't know what we're going to go through, but every day is going to be a surprise.
41:50And you've got to live day by day and minute to minute.
41:52Next on Tough Enough. Who's going to quit amongst this group?
42:02Scott might become an annoyance to the house.
42:05Throw the seat down there, tough guy.
42:07You spit on me. I spit on you. Get up and leave.
