Every Million Reasons to Win

Every Million Reasons to Win is the season finale of Battle Showdown.

Description
The Finalists brave the elements and extreme altitude as they race through the mountains of Argentina with a million dollars in prize money at stake. At the finish line, TJ has one last dirty trick up his sleeve.

Final Challenge
Location: Ruinas del Quilmes, Salta, Argentina

For the final challenge, players will compete in a series of timed checkpoints full of unpredictable twists and turns. First place players will receive $450,000 each, second will receive $35,000 each, and third will receive $15,000 each. To kick off the final challenge, players were tasked with jumping 20,000 feet out of an airplane. Players would then continue on through the course with the help of video clues from TJ.

Stage 1
Stage: The Donation

Players must run to the top of the ruins and donate a salt gem. At the top players must wait for the next member of the opposite sex available in order to continue. They must then run back down and donate 30 stones to the apacheta pile in order to stop their time.

Stage: Totem Recall

Players must each race to find an emblem somewhere in the canyon that will allow them to complete the design of a totem pole. In order to retrieve their emblem they must climb to the top of the canyon using climbing gear. They must also memorize the pattern on a totem pole within the course in order to complete their puzzle. If a player's puzzle is incorrect they must run back to the totem pole before attempting again.

Stage 5
Stage: Smoke House

The winners from the last stage will now separate and choose two new partners. Each pair must run into a smoky structure and feel around until they can discover the word on the wall. Once they believe they know the word they must run outside and write the word on a board. If the pair guesses correctly, their time will be stopped but if they are incorrect they must run back inside before trying again.

Stage 6
Stage: Going Out with a Bang

Players must each put on safety gear and hold onto a sled that is being pulled by a truck for as long as they can and then run to the finish line. If they drop prematurely, they must run the remaining distance. TJ would later reveal that he would not be announcing the winners until the reunion.
