Ahhh! Ahhh! That's the sound of people getting shocked on the Electric Eel Obstacle in the
Tough Mudder course. Umm, for most of the obstacles, there's a lot of different things
you can do to get through the obstacle, but for the Electric Eel, it's just crawl through
it fast, so you don't get shocked that much. I don't know what a lot of these people are
doing. It's really hard to avoid those dangling wires. Plus, if there's someone next to you
that gets shocked, you get shocked too because you're laying in this muddy water. And water,
ah, it conducts electricity, so go fast. That's my only tip for the Electric Eel. Get in and
get out. Now I did it a little differently than some of the people that were in the Electric
Eel. I waited until I had more clear path in front of me. The last thing I wanted to
do was wait for someone who was slow on the electric eel and then just get shocked a ton
because I can't pass them. So, if you want to do one thing, it's let the people in front
of you get some distance. Then crawl into the Electric Eel and crawl as fast as you
can. Stay as low as you can. I guess that is a chance there that you can avoid some
people by staying low, but you're going to get shocked, and it's going to hurt. I got
shocked four times, and I went pretty quick. So, get in and get out of there. Alright.
Happy Trails. Hopefully, you get through the Electric Eel without getting shocked too much.
Ahhh!
