Swimming
In both the American and UK revivals, a water element was added to the Eliminator. In the first season of both revivals, Contenders must jump feet first off a platform (in America, contenders had to climb onto the platform, in the UK, contenders started from the platform) before swimming underneath a fire lit just above the surface of the water. Acrylic glass shields protect contenders from swimming into the fire. The American "fiery surface" consists of 3 pipes with holes that allow fuel to escape and burn. The UK surface consists of two pipes. In the second season of the American revival, the swim was extended, and an additional "fiery surface" section was added to the pool, with a gap between the two sections to allow contenders to surface for air. In addition, contenders began on a floating platform just above the surface of the pool and were allowed to dive in head first.
