American Ninja Warrior 10
He competed in his hometown on his rookie season. His run was cut, but he failed the Tuning Forks, and didn't make the top 30.

American Ninja Warrior 11
He returned in Oklahoma City for his second season. His run was cut from broadcast, but history repeated itself as he failed the fourth obstacle once again, this time being the deadly Diving Boards. He had a perfect start on the first board, but was slightly off center on the next board, resulting in him being far off balance and therefore slam short off the landing pad.

His full run, however, was posted on YouTube.
