Here's a brief description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on writing up some additional detail, though!
- Despite listing 62 countries and building a tower 10 cans tall at one point, Aisling missed the very first whistle. She therefore only actually built a tower 1 can tall.
- Bob realised the task didn't state they had to keep the rope tied to their waist, so removed it. He named just 3 countries and built a tower 6 cans high.
- Mark named 92 countries and built a tower 6 cans high.
- Nish named 25 countries in alphabetical order, and built a tower 5 cans high.
- Sally named several countries more than once, as well as several states and cities. Despite building a tower 8 cans tall, she had only built a tower 2 cans tall by the time she made her first mistake.
