What is Tough As Nails?
Tough As Nails is a reality TV competition series that features contestants competing in challenges at job sites to test their strength, endurance, and skills.
Contestants compete in team challenges, individual competitions, and elimination battles, known as “overtime.”
However, contestants who lose elimination challenges do not leave the game and still have the opportunity to win additional prizes during team competitions.
Each competition the team wins earns them $12,000 and they receive a badge of honor.
The team with the most badges of honor by the end of the season receives a cash prize of $60,000 to be split amongst members.
If both teams have the same number of badges of honor, there is a tie breaker.
How can I watch Tough As Nails?
Tough As Nails airs on CBS Wednesdays at 8pm ET.
