Wheelie bin obstacle course
- In this team task, the contestants must navigate an obstacle course while one of them is within a wheelie bin, and the others are blindfolded.
- An additional challenge is usually added through the requirement that none of the contestants may speak in their native language (and sometimes, even another commonly spoken language), or that the individual in the bin may only say words beginning with a certain letter.
