Episode synopsis

In this episode the contestants must collect balloons without David seeing them, build a house out of paper, throw a sledgehammer the third longest distance, change their appearance in a lift, pair some nuts and bolts, cheer up a critic, bowl over and then set back up some items, and throw a frying pan into a hoop.

Alternate Titles

  • On Finland's MTV Katsomo streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Keilailua ja moukarinheittoa', which translates as 'Bowling and hammer throwing'. This is a reference to the 'Bowl over and then set back up many items' and 'Throw the sledgehammer the third longest distance' tasks. [Translator credit: zador]
