The Tiger is 2 massive 40ft A-frames that competitors must clamber up and run down and if that wasn't tough enough in between the 2 is the 'Sting in the Tail' a series of electric fences primed and charged with twice the power required to stun a bull.  Traditionally this is the first obstacle you get after the long run and it is a mixture of relief the run is over and apprehension that the worst is yet to come.

Obstacle Rules

You MUST go OVER the the top bar, NO ducking under the top bar

The tiger under a dusting of snow just days before TG2004 - remember Tough Guy goes ahead whatever the weather, if there's 3ft of snow on the ground set out a day or 2 early!!

Don't look down!
