Physical: Asia: What went down during Group B's Quest 3 Hanging Endurance challenge between Turkey, Japan, and Mongolia?

Netflix's Physical: Asia Episode 7 was released on November 11, 2025. The recently released episode featured four challenges for Group B's Quest 3.

After the Zigzag Hurdle Match and the Totem Pole Endurance Match, the third task was the Hanging Endurance challenge. For that, one participant from each team had to hang on given ropes with different contact points. Additionally, they would also be later asked to change their positions and grips.

Team Japan was the first one to lose grip. Later, things were intense after Team Turkey's participant accidentally touched the hand-grip with both his hands. It was when only one hand was supposed to touch the grip. At the same time, Team Mongolia's player was going steady. Hence, it resulted in Team Mongolia's win.

Physical: Asia Episode 7: Highlights from Turkey, Japan, and Mongolia's Hanging Endurance Challenge

One of the challenges featured on Physical: Asia Group B's Quest 3 was the Hanging Endurance Challenge. After arriving in the arena and seeing the ropes hanging from the trees, Team Mongolia's Lkhagva-Ochir confessed to the cameras:

"As an acrobat, it's practically my job to hang on ropes all day. It's my second home at this point. So I hope I get the chance to maybe take a break and zone out up there."

Soon, the narrator revealed the rules and how the challenge would work. According to the instructions, participants had to hold two of the rings with their hands and two as supports for their feet. Later, they will be asked to change their positions.

"Holding one ring with two hands or hooking one ring around both feet is not allowed," added the announcer.

Soon, the participating contestants from each team entered the Physical: Asia arena. They were:

• Team Mongolia: Lkhagva-Ochir Erdene-Ochir,
• Team Turkiye: Anıl Berk Baki.
• Team Japan: Nonoka Ozaki.

Team Japan's Nonoka talked about body weight. She mentioned that she was lighter than both of her opponents.

"I'd just have less to hold, so I'd just wait it out," she confessed.

Team Mongolia's Orkhonbayar felt that it would be an easy victory with Lkhagva-Ochir competing from their side.

Soon, the Physical: Asia challenge started. Anıl struggled to find his balance. After seeing his competitors, he also crossed his legs and felt support from the ropes. All three participants managed to stay balanced and steady after staying ten minutes in the challenge. After 19 minutes, they were asked to release one of their hands.

With 39 minutes on the clock, they were notified to unlock their feet from locking positions. Soon, teams Turkey and Japan struggled to keep their balance.

"Weirdly enough, I had lost all feelings in my fingers. So I had to use all my strength just to keep holding on," confessed Japan's Nonoka Ozaki.

Team Turkey's Anıl Berk also struggled to keep steady. After 46 minutes, Team Japan's Nonoka lost her balance and fell down. Only two participants, Team Mongolia and Team Turkey left in the challenge. They kept steady even after 60 minutes hanging with one hand and two feet in the grips.

After 100 minutes, Team Mongolia's Lkhagva-Ochir confessed:

"I knew that the longer the game ran, the more pain I'd have to endure."

On the other hand, Anıl felt his hands and feet going cold. However, he didn't give up. After 01:51:00 on the clock, Anıl accidentally touched the ring with his other hand, which was not allowed. As a result, Team Mongolia won the Hanging Endurance Challenge.
