Marko figures out a few hacks

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

Marko runs to the shed in search of a ladder. He settles for David’s referee chair, and drags it to the part of the house where he’d earlier lodged the football in the gutter. He retrieves the football and takes it down to the fridge, where he cuts the football open to retrieve the key. By the time he has done this, Marko only has 15 minutes left to complete the task. He lays the fridge down on the ground, and removes all of the shelves from inside of it. His first throw lands directly in the fridge. David tells Marko that he has time for another shot, but reminds him that the last attempt is the one that counts. Marko’s second throw misses, so he decides that he needs some sort of a backboard. He drags the fridge to a nearby tree, and turns it so that the door rests against the tree trunk, creating a backboard. Presumably realising he is down to his last carton, Marko gathers a few tennis balls and pours the milk over them. His second tennis ball lands in the fridge. David then goads Marko into taking another shot, declaring that it will look like Marko has “given up”. Marko takes the bait, and throws another tennis ball from a few steps further back. Thankfully, this shot also lands in the fridge. With a distance of 17 metres and 62 centimetres, Marko earns second place.
