Eleven teams depart from the Joint Forces Training Base in Los Alamitos, Calif. and travel to Switzerland where the world's second tallest bungee awaits, as well as an exhausting, "cheesy" challenge.

An injured Racer finds their Team's destiny in Mother Nature's hands and must make a game changing decision, while another Racer's hopes are pinned to a mountain rescue.

Teams travel to Siberia, the show's first-ever visit, where a first place team quickly learns how it feels to be last, and when a new twist is revealed, one Team is left scrambling for their survival in the game.

As the race heats up, Teams face a roadblock made of camel feed, a speed bump the size of an elephant and a detour made more complicated by an impatient taxi driver.

During the Detour, one Racer is frustrated when a dancing judge doesn't understand their question, and two Teams battle each other throughout the leg, leading to a full-blown mat meltdown.
