Tough as Nails Format and Cast
The makers have not announced any changes to the format of Tough as Nails. However, they might bring some changes and if that happens, they are expected to announce it soon.
Twelve contestants are tested in competitions at real-world job sites with tasks that test their strength, endurance, life skills and mental toughness. Contestants compete in 6-on-6 team challenges, individual competitions, and elimination battles, referred to as ‘Overtime’. Unlike other reality competitions, contestants who lose elimination challenges do not leave the game and still have the opportunity to win additional prizes during team competitions.
Each team competition gives the winning team $12,000 ($2,000 per member) and earns the team that challenge’s Badge of Honor. The team that has collected the most Badges of Honor by the end of the season receives an additional cash bonus of $60,000 ($10,000 per member). If both teams have the same number of Badges of Honor, then they will hold a tiebreaker.
The show has been presented by Phil Keoghan since the first season and he is expected to return as the host for the upcoming season.
