Phil throws a small bowling ball

Phil predicts that he himself will win the task.

While searching the shed, Phil ponders the height problem, as he realises that an object’s drop height is one of the main components to creating a large splash.

He finds an empty recycling bin, intending to fill it with water, but choosing not to do so until he figures out his drop location.

Phil eventually moves the recycling bin to the low stone wall near the Le Maître du Jeu house’s car park, but quickly abandons it as a container for his splash, both because it would waste a lot of water, and because he has finally decided on his object to be thrown – a small green bowling ball – which would mean that the recycling bin was unnecessarily large.

Phil swaps out the recycling bin for a small bucket inside of a plant pot, which he subsequently fills with water, after a brief conversation with Antoine about the spray settings of the hose head.

Phil leans over the fence above the stone wall, carefully aims his shot, and throws the small bowling ball into the bucket.

He creates a 3.5 metre high splash, and earns third place.
