Build a can tower while naming different countries

  • In this task the contestants are instructed to build a can tower on a table, while either naming unique countries or greeting the Taskmaster’s assistant as if from a different country (either every 10 seconds, or before each can is placed).
  • In solo versions of the task, the contestants are usually tethered to a table with a short piece of rope, and the cans are usually in an immovable container.

Adaptations

In this hybrid adaptation of two tasks, the teams must attempt to build the tallest tin can tower on a table while keeping half their hands on half their hips. They must also name a unique country before placing each can. One member of the team of three has been instructed to attempt to sabotage their team.
In this version of the task, the contestants can choose to end their attempt at any time by declaring their tower to be complete. If, however, their attempt ends because they made a mistake, the height of their tower is completely disregarded.
