Tammy builds a slapstick tower

Tammy initially starts leaning unfolded boxes against one other, in order to take advantage of the full 20 minutes, hoping that the wind will be kind to her and not destroy her efforts.

After moving a few boxes, Tammy notices the roll of tape. However, before she uses it to start taping boxes together, Tammy second-guesses her approach, and decides to just start folding boxes instead.

Tammy does not close the top of her boxes, but also does not use the upright flaps to gain extra height on her tower, instead stacking the boxes inside of each other.

At some point, to make her tower taller, Tammy decides to move the base of her tower from the ground to the stack of unfolded cardboard boxes.

As she tries to place another box on top of the tower, she accidentally falls into it, leading her to complain about how slapstick her attempt must look. However, she persists, holding up her tower on top of the stack of unfolded boxes as her time runs out.

Tammy’s tower is measured at 4 metres, and she wins the task.
