T06:C01 - S06:E01 - Fireboat Heli Net Climb / Fire Torch Toss and Drink / Fire Slide

Contestants will be standing on the back of the fireboat as a helicopter flies in with a cargo net hanging beneath it. The contestants will grab hold of the net and release as many flags as they can while their opponents spray them with water from the fire hoses. Whoever can release the most flags the fastest before falling wins. Each contestant will have the option to drink up to three habanero pepper smoothie shots. For each shot they complete they will be given a flare. Each team of two contestants must then attempt to throw their flares into 55 gallon steel barrels causing them to ignite via special effects. The teams that get the most flares in the barrels will advance. One contestant will be standing at the top of a 60-foot fire slide while their partner is standing at the bottom of the slide-stairs hand-cuffed to the stairs. On go the top contestant will lower a rope with a key attached to the contestant below. Once the contestant below has the key, the top contestant will slide down the slide and swim under a platform that is covered with ice, pop up through one of two manholes and dig through the various ice-piles for a handle prop, all the while their partner is seconds behind performing the same tasks. When each contestant finds the handle they will place it on a valve and turn it. From there they will make their way back to the top of the slide, where there will be 2 more handles - one for each of them - enclosed in a candy-glass box that they must break to retrieve the handles. They must take this second set of handles with them down the slide, under the platform and through the manhole. They must use these handles on the remaining 2 valves to extinguish the flames surrounding their slide for time.
