Jeremy Taiwo

Jeremy Taiwo is a U.S. Olympic Decathlete who has competed twice on ANW.

American Ninja Warrior 9
He competed in Kansas City in season 9, where he cleared the first two obstacles with ease. Ironically, despite his sprinting experience, he could not complete the Broken Pipes, being flipped upside down on the second pipe before skimming the water.

American Ninja Warrior 11
He returned in Tacoma, where he made it to the fifth obstacle, the Lightning Bolts, before crashing down. However, he placed 25th overall and advanced to the city finals.

In the city finals, he crashed down much earlier than expected on the Lunatic Ledges, when his long legs kicked the second board away from him before he could grab the handle. He went the least farthest out of all the city finalists that round, placing 33rd overall. He also was one of just two competitors to not attempt the Lightning Bolts in the round as well.
