Gladiator Quitters

As I am watching my new favorite show Gladiators, I could not believe what I saw.  Both the women had issues getting up the treadmill, and they both had problems.  They ran up and could not grab the rope.  They did it again, and couldn’t do it.  They both did it a third time, and they failed.  The red player ran up, got the rope, pulled herself up, and just couldn’t get on the platform.  She fell and then blue tried and failed.  At this point, THEY BOTH SAT DOWN.  What the hell is this?  You do not quit for gladiator!  I say they both should be disqualified!  I mean, seriously, there is no sitting in gladiator.  The blue player finally made it up there and finished while the red player was still sitting!  She did finally make it to the end but I was shocked to see this.  Granted, I could not do the swimming pool, let alone anything else in the eliminator….
