One will win it all, everyone else will Wipeout!

Wipeout returns for its seventh season, and the competition is seriously fun! In each themed episode, 24 contestants will go head to head through challenging and hilarious obstacle courses. This time around, each week's winner will return at the end of the season to battle it out for the title of Ultimate Wipeout Champion. Along the way, one lucky contestant will even win a date with cohost Jill Wagner, returning this season along with hosts John Henson and John Anderson.

Could you tackle the top 5?

5. Henson Headshots

Wipeout host John Henson loves seeing his own face larger than life, especially when it's part of an obstacle. Two 12-foot-tall portraits of John surprise contestants as they rush past — with an air bag and a wall stopper popping out of the incredible likenesses.

4. Driver's Ed

Contestants get schooled on this rough road trip. While moving across a series of giant rotating steering wheels, they're
prone to be thrown into a mud pit by the sudden appearance of giant red air bags. (These were installed in the steering columns for safety, of course.)

3. Sucker Punch

Try navigating a narrow ledge over a mud pit while 22 punching arms randomly pop out of the wall you're clinging to. Then you'll know what Wipeout contestants have been attempting since Season 1. Nearly all of them have taken a mud bath. At least it's good for the skin.

2. Motivators

More a family of obstacles than a single one, Motivators are large moving objects that motivate (that is, shove) contestants forward. Sometimes this kind of "motivation" can come as a surprise, appearing suddenly from an unseen surface.

1. Big Balls

What else would top the list? These four giant red globes have challenged contestants on nearly every episode since the series began. Weighing 1,000 pounds each, the Big Balls are filled with compressed air, ideal for sending competitors bouncing and sliding
into the water below. In fact, very few have made it across all four.

Classic Wipeouts
