Pete gets a face full of coffee


Pete initially considers dropping the coffee from the balcony, but thinks that it’s too risky.
He fills a plastic food bag with coffee and tapes it shut. Keeping the bag inside the bucket, he then also tapes over the top of the bucket for extra security.
Pete drops the bucket from the third railing of the fence at the back of the house. The bucket lands upright on the grass but splashes coffee upwards through a gap in the tape, directly into his face. He claims that this was refreshing, and when asked if any of it went in his mouth, admits that it did, and that it wasn’t bad, but that he’d have preferred it stronger.
In the studio, when Tom Gleeson asks what height Pete had dropped the bucket from, Pete claims it was from 20 feet.
Tom Cashman reveals that of the original 7 litres of coffee in the bucker, Pete had managed to retain 6.1 litres. When multiplied by the actual height of 1.49 metres, this works out to 9.09 litre-metres, which earns him 4 points.
