Episode overview

The world of extreme military-style obstacle courses is taking the country by storm. In total, 205,000 people ran obstacle races in Britain in 2013. Globally the industry is estimated to be worth over half a billion dollars. This film follows five men over the length of one of these courses, the Tough Mudder. As they attempt to conquer the 12-mile course they face 12-foot walls, crawling through mud-filled trenches, enduring electrocution, and submerging themselves in giant skips full of ice.
