In the fifth episode of RW/RR Challenge The Duel 2, the players compete while swinging at high heights. Isaac and Ruthie are sent home.

Duel 2 rules are as follows: After each challenge, there will be one guy winner and one girl winner. Those two will then deliberate on which person they will choose from the remaining players. The person they choose will then choose another player or the opposite sex, that process continues until there is one guy and one girl left not chosen. Those two remaining players will be going to the Duel. The two players then choose one player of the same sex to face them in the Duel.

Each challenge is individual, and at the end there will be six players competing for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place cash prizes.

There is a giant swing hundreds of feet above a river, one player is harnessed in the swing while the other player is harnessed and standing on a platform above the swing. The players are in girl-guy pairs for the challenge and they have to hold hands with each other. The team that holds hands the longest wins the challenge. When they let go, the player in the swing swings through the air on a bungee cord.

When each pair goes up, the girls are the ones in the swing and the guys are on the platform holding onto them. When Evan and Diem go, Evan tells her to have fun down there when he lets her go. Then he laughs at her screaming.

Mark and Rachel have the longest time and win the challenge. They are safe from the Duel.
