American Ninja Warrior 5 was the fifth season of American Ninja Warrior. The season was premiered on June 30th, 2013, and hosted four cities for qualifying rounds in Venice Beach, Baltimore (new city), Miami, and Denver (new city), with the national finals being held in Las Vegas. For this season, Matt Iseman returned as the host for his fourth season, while Akbar Gbaja-Biamila and Jenn Brown replaced Jonny Moseley and Angela Sun as the co-host and sideline reporter respectively.
This season brought some major changes for the competition, compared to the previous season:
- Starting on this season:
- Competitors who completed the city qualifiers course would automatically advance to city finals. If less than 30 competitors completed it, the competitors who got the furthest and fastest round the course would advance to city finals.
- Then, competitors who completed the city finals course would automatically advance to Las Vegas national finals. If less than 15 competitors completed it, the competitors who got the furthest and fastest round the course would advance to Las Vegas national finals. City finals course was now featured 10 obstacles instead of 9.
- Competitors who completed the city finals course would also receive a special badge, and they must wear it while competing in Las Vegas national finals.
- About 55% of the obstacles used on this season were new, with some of them had never been used on both American Ninja Warrior and SASUKE. This would eventually make American Ninja Warrior as the staple of the obstacles for most of the SASUKE/Ninja Warrior's international formats in the future.
