ONE CELEBRITY RINGS THE BELL BEFORE THE START OF A CHALLENGE, LEAVING FIVE TO NAVIGATE NATURAL AND MAN-MADE OBSTACLES TO EARN $60,000 FOR THEIR CHARITIES, ON "BEYOND THE EDGE," WEDNESDAY, MAY 4
"Bird Brain" - One celebrity rings the bell before the start of a challenge, leaving five to advance their place on the leaderboard and earn more money for their charities. In the "Wings Over Panama" adventure challenge, two captains step up to lead teams through the jungle, navigating natural and man-made obstacles, to reach a bird-viewing deck and decipher a bird-themed phrase. The winning team will earn $60,000 to split among their charities, on BEYOND THE EDGE, Wednesday, May 4 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+*.
On BEYOND THE EDGE, nine celebrities will see if they have the grit to withstand torrential downpours, scorching heat and deadly wildlife while living in the exotic Panama jungle. There won't be any judges or eliminations - instead, each celebrity must rely on their inner fortitude, physical ability, and courage, and have faith in their teammates to endure in the wild. For each day they last, and every grueling adventure challenge they win with their team, the celebrities will raise more money for their charities. If a player reaches their breaking point, they can ring a bell to signal that they are ready to go home. At the end of the 14 days, the top two earners will go head to head in one final adventure, to see who can become the BEYOND THE EDGE champion and take home the most money for their charity.
