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 scour the Transylvania countryside for buried coffins, while one of the Race's frontrunners finds themselves at the back of the pack when their plane makes an unexpected landing.

Several Racers leave their backpacks behind at a Roadblock and find themselves shoeless with no passports, and Teams let loose in a Karaoke-themed Detour.

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.

In an Olympic-themed task in Beijing, Teams swim the same distance that Michael Phelps swam in the 400 meter individual medley, and two Teams continue to hold a grudge against each other.
