John Wilmas

John Wilmas is a competitor from St. Louis, Missouri. He calls himself the Stair Ninja because he trains his lower body often by running up and down flights of stairs.

He has currently competed in ANW three times.

American Ninja Warrior 9
He first competed in Kansas City. His run was cut, but he was one several to fail Crank It Up. His time was not fast enough to advance to the city finals.

American Ninja Warrior 10
He returned in Indianapolis. His run was cut again, but he failed the Wheel Flip, once again not making the top 30.

American Ninja Warrior 11
He returned for his third season in Cincinnati. His run was digested, but despite his powerful lower-body, he couldn't run across the Spin Bridge. He had an ugly fall where he lost his glasses falling from the obstacle, though he was able to retrieve them at the bottom of the pool eventually.
