Roll a toilet roll, and then use it to retrieve something
- In this live studio task the contestants are instructed to roll a toilet roll past a certain line on a platform on the stage.
- Anyone whose toilet roll does not make it past the first line, or falls off the platform, is eliminated.
- An object (either one of their shoes, or a glass of water) is then placed on the toilet paper of any remaining contestants, and they have to retrieve it as quickly as possible by pulling on the paper, without tearing it.
Original version
Adaptations
In this version of the task, the second part of the task (retrieving your shoe) was omitted, since only one contestant even managed to get their toilet roll into the designated area.
In this version of the task, the second part involves the contestants retrieving a glass of water which has been placed on their toilet paper, rather that one of their own shoes. This actually makes the task more fair (as they are all retrieving something of an equal weight and form) as well as more dangerous (any water spilled will make it easier for the paper to tear).
