I went back to the city after 2 hours sleep to check on DJ. He was still holding touching the board but this time his other hand was lock with cable tie to the side. Apparently about 5am, the organisers brought 2 snakes. According to DJ it was mini snakes to scared the shit out of them. After the 5 minutes toilet break the next task was still the same, but blind folded. I had to talk to him to keep him awake. 3 hours later they were required to kneel and keeping one hand on the board. At some point while kneeling DJ looked like he has fallen asleep but on closer examination, he was meditating.
From 23 contestants at 7pm 30th May down to final 4 at 4pm the next day. The 4 finalist were required to the horse riding stance as the final challenge. In less than 15 minutes 2 of the finalist call it quits and left DJ and the other contestant to slug it out. They were ask to keep both hands on the board while continuing the horse riding stance. It was nearly 45 minutes of torture and in the end DJ’s opponent couldn’t handle the pain anymore and DJ was declared the WINNER.
Big thank you to MonkeyKing, Katsudon, Iriya, Yauie, Vo, Maria, Rose & Nam for being there and giving encouragement to DJ.
It was one hell of a nerve wreaking ride for me. I think I deserve a pair of DC moon-boots from DJ for feeding cheese burger when he was blind folded for 3 hours.
