Popular ‘King of the Mountain’ challenge draws thousands to Genting Highlands

Flame on: The Rapid Fire obstacle requires participants to jump over a flaming trench of wood and coal

Participating in the Genting King of the Mountain meant saying ‘yes’ to jumping over fire, crawling through mud, swinging like Tarzan and walking away with bruises and scrapes.

A testament to its popularity, the obstacle challenge event by Viper Challenge and Resorts World Genting reached its 8,500-entry limit two weeks after registration began.
