Elet Hall is a Ski Lift Operator from Cavetown, Maryland who has competed in four American Ninja Warrior tournaments.
In American Ninja Warrior 4, he had the 4th fastest time in the Northeast Qualifiers and then the 5th fastest time in Northeast Finals. He was part of the ten fastest finishers on Stage One but he shockingly failed on the Unstable Bridge in Stage Two.
In American Ninja Warrior 5, he completed the Baltimore Qualifying Course in the fastest time of 53 seconds. However in the city finals, he fell victim to the Salmon Ladder despite having a fast pace throughout his run. He was selected to be a wild card at Mt. Midoriyama. He cleared the Stage One with 39 seconds left. In Stage Two, however, he failed on the obstacle he completed in the previous season which is the Double Salmon Ladder.
In American Ninja Warrior 6, he had completed the qualifying course finishing 5th overall. In the city finals, he finished the course with the second fastest time in the St. Louis Finals. At Mt. Midoriyama, he had the fastest time on Stage One with 46 seconds remaining. On Stage Two, he was only the second person (and last one) to complete the stage along with The Weatherman, Joe Moravsky. On Stage Three, he fell on the Floating Boards transitioning to the fourth board.
He also represented Team USA in American Ninja Warrior: USA vs. The World where he competed on Stage One in the second heat, where he had to go for broke to conquer Stage One faster than 1:02.70 but then his hand touched the water coming off of the Silk Slider. He then competed on Stage Two where he went against Sean McColl and Kanno Hitoshi where Elet conquered the course but he lost the heat to Sean who completed Stage Two faster.
In American Ninja Warrior 7, he had the fastest time in the Pittsburgh qualifying round. In the finals however, he had failed on the Doorknob Arch, but still qualified to Las Vegas. In Vegas, Elet went through the first three obstacles in under 30 seconds. Unfortunately, Elet popped his shoulder while trying to stick on to the walls on the Jumping Spider and failed. It was a very shocking and disappointing performance but Elet vowed that he would train harder and come back even stronger next season but ultimately did not compete in American Ninja Warrior 8.
He hasn't competed since. It is possible that he has either given up or he was not invited back like many others. He has said on Instagram that his schedule's been busy. However, he doesn't rule out the possibility of a comeback in the near future.
