During his confessional, Joe admitted that not being able to make it to the top of the mega wall has been gnawing at him and therefore, he trained harder so that this time despite the pressure and nervousness he was to able to make it. His love and passion for the sport helped him achieve the goal this time. In addition to creating history, he also added $10,000 to his bank account.
