'Cannonball' is a competitive series that airs on USA Network. Each episode, 12 participating athletes are required to jump into deep waters as part of various challenges from great heights. The performers at the bottom of each challenge are eliminated and only four athletes make it to the fifth and the final challenge, the winner of the same goes home with a cash prize. In tonight's (Thursday, August 6) episode, "Cat Daddy" Chad Reinhart waltzed his way back home with $10,000. 

Chad's introductory video painted him as a very chilled-out and slightly cuckoo person. He said in wearing a red T-shirt with a photo of his two cats: BuffySummers of Sunnydale and Ophelia of Denmark, printed on it. He also boasted about the fact that studying the behavior of his cats keeps him in pretty good shape. Move over dad-bods because he came in sporting his "Chad-bod" and was ready to win the competition so that he could use the $10k to buy his cats an invitation to his wedding for which he was trying to accumulate funds for before coming to the competition. Chad surprised everyone when he rocketed all the way to the top of the leaderboard right in the first challenge and he continued to perform exceptionally over the next challenges as well. 

Another athlete, Na'eem, was also one of the best performers from this episode. He called himself a "Superman" who was "ready to fly" in the introductory video while also speaking about agreeing with everyone that says he's in great shape. "I got a couple of cannonballs," he said while pointing to his buffed up biceps. Na'eem was amongst the top two contenders who were about to take home the grand prize but the Chad-bod was no match for his biceps and he ended up defeated in the final challenge by a decent margin. 

Other participating athletes included Dana, an alien-obsessed young woman who believed that the 'Cannonball' competition ground was a great area for some alien-sighting. However, she promised that her focus was in the game and that she'd like for her alien friends to meet her later on, to congratulate her after she wins. Andrea Logan, 53, came into the competition with her abs of steel and an unhealthy obsession with Kid Rock. She confessed to having attended over 75 concerts of the singer-songwriter and the self-confessed wild child was ready to take the grand-prize home. 

'Cannonball' airs Thursday nights at 8 pm ET only on USA Network.
