Task brief

The brief for the task is as follows:

Wearing that blindfold at all times, travel as far as possible in three minutes.

Alex will be at your side at all times, because he is a strong, independent, handsome man.

On removing the blindfold, you will then have another three minutes to retrace your steps to your starting position.

Longest successful retracing of steps wins.

Attempts

Here's a brief description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on writing up some additional detail, though!

  • Aisling rode on Alex's back, deciding to create a bread trail after they started to travel. She travelled 200 metres before wandering back to where she started, ending up 64 metres away from the starting point.
  • Bob used the bread to create markers for him to retrace his steps. He travelled 54 metres and successfully retraced his steps.
  • Mark attempted to walk in a straight line, deciding to leave a bread trail after he started to travel. He walked 74 metres blindfolded but then carried on in the same direction, ending up 140 metres away from his starting point.
  • Nish walked in circles blindfolded, taking 300 paces but only travelling 15 metres. He then walked 180 metres, ending up 195 metres away from his starting point.
  • Sally both ran and didn't travel in a straight line. She travelled 220 metres and staggered back in the right general direction, ending up 74 metres from her starting position.
