The Las Vegas Finals of American Ninja Warrior reached an exciting conclusion in the latest episode, as ninjas competed in Stages 3 and 4 for the $1 million prize. The episode, “Las Vegas Finals 4,” aired on NBC on Monday, September 9, 2024.
Stage 3 began with a new obstacle, Pizza Party, which proved challenging. Josiah Pippel, an 18-year-old ninja, struggled and fell, setting the tone. Kyle Soderman, a stuntman, faced his curse at the Ultimate Cliffhanger, an obstacle from previous attempts.
Sean Bryan, the Papal Ninja, passed his nemesis, the Ultimate Cliffhanger, but was defeated by the Pizza Party. Caleb Bergstrom, from the Bergstrom ninja family, became the first to conquer the Pizza Party and complete Stage 3 with time to spare. He was followed by Nacssa Garemore, a 16-year-old sensation, who defeated obstacles with ease.
Stage 4, an intense rope climb, determined the winner. Kai Beckstrand, Nacssa, Vance Walker, Caleb, and Noah Meunier took on the challenge. Kai and Nacssa ran out of time, while Vance, the defending champion, completed the climb within 30 seconds. Caleb, aiming to beat Vance, finished with a good time but fell short. Noah, the last ninja, also ran out of time, securing Vance’s second million-dollar win.
