Stephen Colbert Demolished John Oliver’s 20-Push-Up Challenge In Amusing Fashion

The above video shows Stephen Colbert delivering 20 push-ups in honor of the U.S. military and its veterans. Last month, we were introduced to the #GiveThem20 campaign which is set to honor our troops by doing either 20 push-ups or sit-ups.

This challenge first hit our radar when The Daily Show‘s own Jon Stewart got down and gave his 20.

Though he may have a history of bad health, Stewart made it through the mini regimen and capped it off with a Rocky Balboa-style clap push-up, to boot! As you can see from the video, he ended up calling out Last Week Tonight host Jon Oliver which you can see below.

Honestly, I can’t wait to see Rob Riggle’s video — if he accepts said challenge — as that man spent 23 years in the Marines and he probably does push-ups in his sleep!
