Task notes

  • The contestants are lined up along the back of one side of the stage, and Olli stands on the other side of the stage, next to a cabinet.
  • Poking out of the top of the cabinet are the tips of five novelty-size matches of varying dimensions.
  • The contestants cannot see the rest of the matches, as they are concealed within the cabinet.
  • The audience can see that some of the matches are definitely longer than others. What they don't know is that two of the matches are so long that they actually pass through the bottom of the cabinet, and through the stage by some distance.
