Ninja Warrior Poland Career[]
Ninja Warrior Poland[]
Ivan appeared for the first time in heat 2 of Ninja Warrior Poland. He completed the elimination track with a time of 01:37 which gave him the 2nd place in the ranking and promotion to the semi-finals. In the semi-finals, he also walked the entire track, with a time of 1 minute and 47 seconds, and finally finished first in it. He was also one of two competitors to complete the entire semi-final track. In the grand finale, he turned out to be one of the best participants, as he managed to complete the first stage as the first of only 4 participants, including one of the most difficult obstacles of this stage - Window Hang. It took him 3 minutes and 44 seconds to complete the track. In the second stage he also did well, until the fifth obstacle, Wall Lift, where he had only 10 seconds to finish the course, but after lifting the third and last wall, he ran out of time and his trial. Later, after his attempt, he admitted that the 50-kilogram wall was the most difficult for him, as he himself only weighed 60 kilograms and therefore did not meet the time limit. In the finale of the first season, he took 2nd place.
Ninja Warrior Poland 2[]
In Ninja Warrior Poland 2, Ivan appeared for the first time in heat 2, where he finished the entire track with a time of 02:25, which gave him the first place in the ranking and promotion to the semi-finals. In the semi-finals, however, he was quickly eliminated on the track, as he fell from the penultimate obstacle, which was the Circuit Board. During the swing to the stick, he swinging too much, causing the keys to slide into the back holes with Ivan.
Ninja Warrior Poland 3[]
Ivan returned to Ninja Warrior Poland 3 in heat 4. He turned out to be one of the fastest runners as he finished the qualifying round with a time of 01:34, which put him in 3rd place in the ranking and reached the semi-finals. In the semi-finals, he also finished the round and took 3rd place in the ranking, which allowed him to enter the final. In the final, he also showed his good side as he was one of the 12 participants to complete the first stage in time. In stage two he also proved to be one of the best as he completed the first five obstacles in time and moved to the next section of the track. On the penultimate ledge on Crazy Cliffhanger, he hung from one hand as he moved from the fifth ledge, but he adjusted his grip and overcame the obstacle. At the next obstacle, the Spinball Wizard, his hands were running out of power and he fell as he jumped from the last grips on the obstacle to the bar. He was the competitor who went the farthest until Sebastian Kasprzyk beat his record by going one obstacle further and winning the title of Last Man Standing. In the final, Ivan finally took 2nd place.
Ninja Warrior Poland 4[]
Ivan appeared in the fourth season, and was one of the four participants of that season to make it to the fourth season after season three. However, in his qualifying heat, he was disqualified on Dancing Stones by accidentally touching the sphere.
Ninja Warrior Poland 5[]
After an unsuccessful start in season 4, Ivan returned to Ninja Warrior Poland 5. His performance was shown in Heat 2. This time he completed the course with a time of 01:40.60 avoiding the balance obstacles. In the semi-finals he did not finish the course because he fell on the fourth obstacle, but the time 01: 17.20 gave him promotion to the final from the 3rd place in the table. In the final he was one of the competitors to finish the second obstacle in the half, but was one of five to fail the fourth obstacle, Walk the Plank.
Injury before Ninja Warrior Poland 6 and 7[]
A few days before the start in Ninja Warrior Poland 6, Ivan suffered a scaphoid fracture, which he announced on his Instagram. Due to the fact that he took part in the castings for the sixth season, he was supposed to appear in that season and probably in the seventh one, but also due to the fact that both seasons were recorded right after each other, Ivan was not able to take part in either of them. It is assumed that if it were not for the previously mentioned injury, Ivan would be the only Polish competitor who would take part in every regular season of Ninja Warrior Poland without exceptions.
