'Tough As Nails' is a competition series on CBS that puts everyday Americans in the spotlight. These real heroes roll up their sleeves and don't think twice about working long or hard hours. Competitors will be tested in strength, endurance, agility and most importantly, mental toughness and are given a chance to use their skills to win the tasks at hand and eventually, a cash prize. However, when it comes to using skills, it is not just physical strength that will be put in play. The contestants will have to use their mind and body to make sure they can do all the tasks before them. 

One of the tasks for the day was building a wall and one thing they had to pay attention was to was the detail. Host, Phil Keoghan was quick to tell all the contestants that they had to make sure all the bricks were laid correctly while also making sure they were able to pile up as many bricks as they could with accuracy. Not having done a task such as this before, the contestants felt the pressure of doing things right but knew that the goal of becoming the second team head was a sweet result waiting at the end.

Myles V Polk revealed that he was aiming to lay everything perfectly so he could get the perfect score, while Kelly “Murph” Murphy decided to take it slow and steady. Being a Marine Corps veteran, Murph wanted to make sure that he won the task because he liked the role of leading a team. Meanwhile, Michelle S Kiddy wanted to show everyone that despite being in her 60s, she was no less than anybody there. She decided to start laying the brick with accuracy to make sure that in the end, it is her wall that is picked. 

As time came to an end, all the walls were analyzed closely to pick the one that won. Linda Goodridge managed to make a wall without any mistake. Keoghan applauded her for managing to build a perfect wall but it was not good enough to win. With a score of 119, Luis Yuli was declared as the winner and given the task of picking his team next to play against Danny Moody but will he make the right pick?

'Tough As Nails' airs on Wednesdays at 8 pm ET on CBS.
