Australian Ninja Warrior 6

Australian Ninja Warrior 6 is the sixth season of Australian Ninja Warrior, and the second season after the total victories of Zak Stolz, Charlie Robbins, and Ben Polson. The season premiered on June 27th, 2022, taped at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney’s Olympic Park (the same location for the previous season).

This season features new cast of presenters. Tennis legend and commentator Jim Courier and journalist and presenter Leila McKinnon serve as the host and co-host, replacing Rebecca Maddern and Ben Fordham respectively, with radio broadcasters Will McMahon and Woody Whitelaw (a.k.a Will & Woody) from KIIS FM’s national Drive show replacing Shane Crawford as sideline reporters. As well as this, competitors as young as 16 years old are now eligible to compete (on the first five seasons, competitors must be at least 18 years old to be eligible to compete).

In ad-breaks and promotional videos shown for this season, events from the American Ninja Warrior: All Stars Special/All Star Spectacular were shown such as Big Dipper Freestyle and Mega Rising Warped Wall. This is possibly hinting at another Australian Ninja Warrior: Record Breakers special after the main season finished.

The Heats
At the end of each of the four heats, the top 18 competitors would advance to the semifinals and the top four competitors would compete on the Power Pool, a side-by-side obstacle course similar to the one used on Team Ninja Warrior and American Ninja Warrior Junior, with the winning competitor earning the right to choose his/her opponent in the semifinals.

About the halfway point of each of the heats, a Celebrity Challenge was held, consisting of three celebrity competitors competing on the first five obstacles. In a similar format to Celebrity Ninja Warrior: Red Nose Day, each celebrity competitor was paired with a top competitor served as his/her mentor and cheerleader. Only the celebrity competitor who completed the most number of obstacles would win AU$10,000 for his/her charity (time was not considered). If there was a tie between the celebrity competitors, they must attempt the Warped Wall with just one attempt as a tiebreaker.

Celebrity Challenge Results
''Notes: For Heat 1, the Eagles Claw was considered as the toughest obstacle for celebrity competitors. Therefore, after completing the Shrinking Steps, the obstacle was skipped and the competitors went straight to the Domino Effect.''
