While Alpha faced his punishment for 24 hours in handcuffs, the other teams faced their own challenges due to lack of food and amenities just before facing a new 'Death Challenge', which left two members out of the competition.
“I swear to you that at dawn I said: 'I'm going to get out of this pod'... when I got desperate I started thinking about it,” said Porto, a member of Alpha.
For his part, Leticiano, of the Gamma team, of which six of his members wore the sentence vest, launched strong claims to his teammates due to lack of energy, dedication and commitment before facing a challenge that left two challengers out of the competition.
“Unfortunately we all have the vest and we are like nothing. Skirla brought you the vest and from there you started to go down, you didn't talk again, you've been sleeping, you made a mistake of taking more than you should and you're a strong person but you're not showing it... Brayan I want you to explode, to hurt, today they can take you out, put that in your head, that you came by your mom's house, I need them to see you as the big one you arrived,” said the captain of the group.
Skirla's annoyance was evident, who quickly demanded Leticiano, arguing that he did not want him to promote hatred among the team, however, his teammates tried to reassure him to avoid bad comments by asking him to express himself with respect to others.
“I am simply analyzing people to see how far they endure the pressure, not going to fall into the trap of taking the group and putting pressure on it. We can never get out of orbit and they excuse me for saying things this way,” said the contestant who is part of the National Police.
In the first stage of the challenge, each challenger had to unwind a rope from a huge reel. Once this step was completed, they descended into the sand through it and ran to the wooden obstacles that they encountered along the way with some logs that they had to cross below.
After that second phase of the competition, they had to climb a metal structure that led them to a platform from which they had to pull a chain to lower a wheel with considerable weight, done that, they had to carry the huge tire at the start of the track passing through the same obstacles that they had overcome at the beginning of the challenge of elimination.
When crossing the red line that marked the goal, they had to launch the wheel until it was placed on a platform that was on the track. The first three men and the first three women to complete the challenge, moved on to the next cycle of the competition.
The first to face were the men, of whom Skirla and Duván of the Gamma team stood out, as they were the first to retain their quota despite the multiple times they had to throw the wheel to place it on the platform. While this was happening, Carballo used a strategy on Brayan to advance faster on wooden obstacles, using his legs to push the tire and his arms as a swing to avoid wear and tear on them, placing third.
For the women's group, those sentenced were Maleja, Emily and Karol by Gamma and Natalia de Omega, who had more difficulty passing obstacles because she had several lacerations on her hands that prevented her from performing well in competition, in addition to the weight of the wheel she had to carry along the track.
The first to place the wheel on the platform was Karol, who was followed by Maleja, the competition became more close because Emily failed to quickly descend the heavy tire and Natalia took advantage of it there, and after a while the representative of the Amazonians managed to catch up with the Omega member and in the first attempt to position the tire on the platform, he took third place.
The eliminated from this second cycle were Natalia from Omega and Brayan from Gamma.
