The concept of this obstacle was incredibly similar to the [[Wave Runner]], where competitors must hold onto to both sides of the boards and maintain their balance while crossing. However, the Angry Birds featured eight boards divided into two sections. Each board varied in shape, had handholds to grab onto, and was placed in a different angle. |

American Ninja Warrior 11's Angry Birds in Baltimore
The Angry Birds is an obstacle, firstly introduced as the eighth obstacle during Baltimore finals on American Ninja Warrior 11.
The concept of this obstacle was incredibly similar to the Wave Runner, where competitors must hold onto to both sides of the boards and maintain their balance while crossing. However, the Angry Birds featured eight boards divided into two sections. Each board varied in shape, had handholds to grab onto, and was placed in a different angle.
The Angry Birds was proven to be the most brutal obstacle in American Ninja Warrior history, as the obstacle eliminated all 22 competitors who attempted it, including top competitors like Chris Wilczewski, Jamie Rahn, Joe Moravsky, Michael Silenzi, Dave Cavanagh, Najee Richardson, Allyssa Beird, Lucas Reale, Garrett Lam, Anthony DeFranco, Zach Day, Ryan Lee, Julius Ferguson, Zach Barefoot, and Clayton Mirage, leaving the next two obstacles unattempted. Almost every competitor who attempted this obstacle failed to make the blind transition to the fifth board (i.e the first board of the second section; a very similar concept to the final ledge on the Leaps of Faith).
