Thomas fails to roll an egg

Thomas throws his first egg at the platform, where it smashes into pieces.

Some of the pieces do remain on the platform, relatively close to the target, though.

For his second roll, Thomas uses Alfred (the boy who had just helped Sofie with her second throw).

He asks Alfred to place the egg directly onto the centre of the target for him.

However, Lasse rejects Thomas’ second attempt, as there was no rolling involved.

Thomas responds by pointing out that he hadn’t actually rolled his first egg (which Lasse had already declared would be counted as Thomas’ best effort).

Lasse agrees with him, and thus fully disqualifies Thomas.
