Amazing Race Season 23 Live Recap: Premiere – Fear Of Heights
| September 29, 2013 at 7:00 PM EDTOur Sunday nights have not been complete for a long time, but thanks to the return of Amazing Race Season 23, we can now finish the weekend off on a good note thanks to CBS and Phil Keoghan. The return of The Amazing Race 2013 brings us 11 new teams traveling the world in hopes of winning $1 million! They will travel four continents and nine countries in their trek for that winning prize. We have our Amazing Race Season 23 Live Recap tonight, so watch with us to see who got eliminated on Amazing Race Season 23 tonight!
From the looks of the previews and the new teams for The Amazing Race 23, this could be a very exciting season. We have former NFL teammates, baseball wives and the “Queens of Bingo,” which I have no clue what to expect from that one or what they mean by it! Phil Keoghan has stated this is a very competitive group of players, so will we see some high tension episodes this season and some good arguments between loved ones?
Tonight the teams travel to their first country on Amazing Race 23: Chile. They will be doing some high-flying, which doesn’t seem to fit very well with one of the contestants! Start flying or go home, girl! Watch The Amazing Race Season 23 premiere with us in our Live Recap starting soon!
WARNING: THE AMAZING RACE SEASON 23 SPOILERS AHEAD!

*********************************************************************
We have the 11 new teams arriving at the old ranch and let’s get this started! Tim and Marie are exes and seem to hate each other, so they should be a treat to watch. Leo and Jamal call themselves the “Afghanimals” because they are Afghan and animals!
They all meet with Phil and he tells them they are headed to South America for the first leg of the race. The first winner gets an Express Pass for them and then another one to hand out by the end of the fifth leg of the race! They head to their cars and make a phone call for instructions. They will head to airport and get their flights to Chile, but only a certain number of teams can fly out on the first flight!
Tim & Danny are from Oklahoma and lost because there are not that many freeways there! The teams arrive at the airport and the first seven teams get on first flight: Leo & Jamal, Ally & Ashley, Chester & Ephraim, Tim & Marie, Rowan & Shane, Travis & Nicole and Hoskote & Naina. The other teams got the second flight!
The teams start arriving in Chile and get their first clue, which is a Road Block on Amazing Race Season 23. One team member will paraglide across a certain area. The other team member will follow along with them in a car and meet them when they land on the beach!
Kim is freaking out about having to do this and is afraid of heights. Leo & Jamal and Ally & Ashley let their taxis go, so they must now find a taxi to start following. They order some, but they Kelly and Marie steal them!
Meanwhile, the other teams are landing and meeting each other. Rowan & Shane are in first place and get the next clue to head ot Muelle Prat for their next clue. All the teams get to their teammates and are now heading to Muelle Prat from the first flight as the second flight starts arriving.
Nicole & Travis get to the next clue first and another Road Block. They must get a row boat and make their way through the waters and find three certain boats and collect five fish from them. The person who did the paragliding will do the rowing on this one.
Travis has now collected all five fish and brings them to shore and gets the next clue, where they will now head to the Pit Stop at Teatro Municipal de Iquique by foot! First team to check in there will win two express passes.
Travis & Nicole head to the Pit Stop, but in a taxi!!! They check in with Phil, but went by taxi and now must incur a 30 minute penalty!
Jamal & Leo read the clue wrong and have the wrong person getting the fish and must switch! This will put them behind! Tim & Marie finish their fish and head to Pit Stop and check-in with Phil and are team number one! They win two Express Passes as Travis & Nicole watch them!
The time penalty runs out for them and Travis & Nicole check-in second and then Shane & Rowan are third. Chester & Ephraim are fourth and Nicky & Kim are fifth.
With the other teams, Brandon & Adam are in last place. They meet up before Hoskote & Naina and are in tenth now. Ally & Ashley check-in sixth and Leo & Jamal seventh.
The other teams are rowing now and struggling on Amazing Race Season 23. Brandon is lost and getting no fish and getting more and more frustrated!
Meanwhile, Naina read the clue wrong and goes out to collect the fish and it should have been her dad. She rereads it and knows they must switch and they are done for! The other teams all check-in with Phil and the night falls and Hoskote & Naina finally finish and check-in as the last team and have been eliminated on The Amazing Race Season 23!
