The Challenge: Ride or Dies needs stricter safety measures, which became apparent after Olivia Kaiser's frightening accident during the first part of the final. Olivia and her ride-or-die partner Horacio Gutiérrez performed extremely well throughout the season, and in the first portion of the 100-day final. Despite being rookies, the two had a great shot at pulling ahead of the other 3 teams, and crowning themselves the winners of Ride or Dies. After finishing the initial task (a long and strenuous stationary bike ride) in first place, Olivia and Horacio appeared to be the front-runners of the final.

Unfortunately, Olivia quickly ran into trouble during the second task, where contestants needed to throw bolas on a target. The carabiner connecting the bolas snagged Olivia's finger, cutting it open, and causing it to bleed profusely. Determined to beat the strong line-up of Challenge finalists, Olivia powered through after having her finger wrapped.
