Mahamad lassos Mark

Here's a description of the contestant's attempt. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to illustrate it.

While reading the task, Mahamad initially confuses a lasso with a bullwhip, and believes that the task is to whip Mark. After a few tries, Mahamad stands the track up vertically to get closer to Mark, and declares that both of them are still technically behind their lines. It is unclear as to why Mahamad did not simply reach around and lasso Mark at that point (perhaps he was unable to do it while still holding the track, as Mark was not assisting). Mahamad then decides to lean the track against a swing set at an angle and climbs on top of the swing set; in this manner, Mahamad is able to simply drop the lasso over Mark. Mahamad completes the task in 6 minutes 32 seconds and earns third place.
