Nerlens Noel Bests the American Ninja Warrior Wall

American Ninja Warrior is an extremely entertaining television show. Seriously.

While on the surface watching adults run through an obstacle course may seem silly, the competitors on the show are some serious athletes. Endurance and upper body strength are just a couple of the traits necessary for success on the show, and while many possess the necessary skill set, many others don't.

One notorious obstacle from the show that often gives the contestants trouble is 'the wall' – a 14- foot ramp that the participants are required to ascend.

Said wall proved to be no match for Philadelphia 76ers big man Nerlens Noel however, as he was able to conquer it during a trial run at a recent taping in Philadelphia.
