The Summit Cast Says Trek Was Tougher Than Expected as Fitness and Strategy Proved Crucial

New interviews spotlight a New Zealand ascent with a €1 million pot carried in backpacks.

Overview

  • Prime Video’s German adaptation debuts on September 26, featuring twelve celebrities on a multi‑day climb in New Zealand.
  • Contestants carry portions of the prize money in their packs and face regular challenges, with departures affecting how much cash continues up the mountain.
  • Ex‑footballer Ansgar Brinkmann says strong conditioning helped yet stresses the game’s complexity means brains matter as much as endurance.
  • Tanja Tischewitsch admits she underprepared, describing the experience as very strenuous with heavy rucksacks and little chance for social downtime.
  • Cecilia Asoro flags loyalty as a fault line, noting potential betrayal would hit hardest if it came from someone she has known a long time.
