Sebastian takes to the roof of the house
Here's a description of the contestant's attempt. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to illustrate it.
Sebastian immediately decides that he's going to drop the water balloon from the top of the Stormester house, rather than using the lift device. He then recalls having seen some hay, so fetches that and uses it to create a large cushioned area on the ground. Standing on top of the house, he successfully drops the balloon on the hay, and it remains undamaged. He then has a second go, this time standing on the low wall that runs around the roof of the house, giving himself a couple more feet in height. This attempt is also successful, and the height of the balloon when released is measured at 7.52m, just slightly higher than the lift device was able to reach. Sebastian thus earns first place in the task.
