Henrik and Nikki stretch a rubber band

Nikki asks Henrik if he’s able to do a handstand, and he says that he will try, for her. Henrik attempts to make the situation more tense by donning a Ghostface mask (based on the Scream movie series) that he finds in the shed. Henrik – with his end of the band tied to his ankle – does a handstand against a tree, while Nikki – with her end of the band tied to the back of her jeans – runs as far away from him as she can. However, this just results in her pulling Henrik down to the ground. They modify their plan, with both tying one end of the band to their ankles, and running in opposite directions. However, Nikki’s end is not tied tightly enough, so the band slips off of her ankle and snaps against Henrik’s leg. David declares that the band in unbroken, so the test can continue. The two alter their plan again, with Nikki riding a tricycle and, this time, the band snaps against her. Continuing with their tricycle and running method, Nikki ties the band to her wrist and begins cycling, while Henrik provides the excitement by jumping onto a mini trampoline and rolling over an exercise ball. Henrik starts to pull at the band at his ankle, and it breaks at the knot, disqualifying the pair. However, Babben awards the bonus point to them for the ‘tensest tension’.
