Behrouz accidentally makes a wheel

Behrouz searches the shed and emerges with a roll of duct tape, which he places somewhat loosely onto the mobility scooter’s axle.

He mounts the scooter to test his new, very small, wheel, and manages to drive it (albeit quite bumpily) as far as the oil drums, at which point the duct tape promptly falls off.

After putting the duct tape back on the axle, Behrouz returns to the shed and cuts a section off of a cardboard tube, which he places in the empty space between the duct tape and wheel well, to try to balance the scooter. However, the presence of the cardboard tube means that the duct tape is unable to gain any traction, and so the scooter remains in place.

In an attempt to solve the problem, he repositions the mobility scooter so that it’s on top of some sort of textured cloth. While initially this seems like a bad decision, as the cloth catches and gets rolled up around the sticky duct tape, the end result of this is the creation of a sort of ovular wheel for the scooter, and he is able to drive it forward once again.

He drives the scooter up onto the ramp, but it gets stuck midway.

He is eventually able to free himself and cross the finish line, although the finish line also gets caught up in the scooter’s wheel, and he drags it along behind him.

Behrouz completes the task in 13 minutes and 23 seconds, and earns second place.
