Tough Guy Challenge: 15 people who finished the world's hardest obstacle course in style
Amongst the thousands who endured brutal conditions, a select few well and truly styled it out on the unforgiving course
Thousands of brave souls took part in the 'Tough Guy Challenge' this weekend - aka the hardest obstacle course in the world.
Competitors battled through mud, fire pits, electric shocks and tunnels to claim the 'Tough Guy' title.
The course is so dangerous that in 30-year history, two people have actually died.
While many battled through the event with every ounce of strength they had, others really rose to the occasion and styled it out during the brutal course in Perton, near Wolverhampton.
