The Challenge star Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio competed in 20 seasons before returning for Ride or Dies. In a recent interview, the winningest player named the season he considered the toughest to endure.
Johnny ‘Bananas’ Devenanzio named his ‘most miserable’ season
Seven-time champ Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio has competed on The Challenge consistently since his 2006 debut on The Duel.
Therefore, he’s faced several conditions that would make the seasons more challenging, including the Survivor-inspired season The Island, which he went on to win, and being forced to compete alongside his rivals and exes. However, Johnny named season 32’s Final Reckoning (2018) as his “most miserable” season and pointed to the lack of human connection as the reason.
