Tough as Nails is a competitive television series that started airing in July 2020. In this show, the contestants compete in challenges at job sites that test their toughness. With every episode, one of the contestants is eliminated. Contestant Patrick Hargan aka Freight Train was eliminated last Wednesday in an individual competition. If you are not aware of what exactly happened in the last episode, here take a recap of the competition.
What happened to Freight Train on 'Tough as Nails'
With so many competitions in job sites, Freight Train was given the task to clean windows on a super dirty skyscraper in Los Angeles. For the task, he paired up with Iraida to complete the challenge. As Freight Train is scared of heights, the challenge turned out to be way more difficult than he imagined. He gave up and did not complete the challenge. An ambulance was called after Freight said that he can't hold himself. After this, the host Phil Keoghan appears on screen to tell the audience that Freight has been eliminated from individual competition.
On the other hand, fans were worried about him. They had no clue whether he will compete in further competitions or not. They took to their social media to show their concern for him.
Hope to see #FreightTrain #Patrick back on #ToughAsNails next week! Stay safe, stay healthy, stay hydrated.
