‘Are You Tougher?’ turns up the heat on the adults and Scouts

What could possibly bring Are You Tougher Than a Boy Scout? to a screeching halt?

See for yourself—no spoiler alerts, here—tonight at 8 p.m./7 p.m. Central when the next episode of the National Geographic Channel’s exciting new reality show returns, pitting adult former Scouts against current Scouts.

This third installment, featuring the pun-worthy title “Buoy Scouts,” features two adult Eagle Scouts and one adult who didn’t make it to the top, as well as popular Scouts from the past two episodes: Trent and Rob.

As expected, the adults have something to prove. Also as expected, they find the going a little, er, tougher than they expected.

First up, the competitors vie with one another in a three-part relay race. But during the second challenge, something happens to one participant that threatens to shut down the contest.

Luckily, the remaining competitors are able to move forward to a final faceoff called “Sink or Swim.” The “buoy,” right?

Are any of the adults Tougher Than a Boy Scout? Tune in tonight at 8 p.m./7 p.m. Central on National Geographic Channel to find out.
