Task brief

The brief for the task is as follows:

Place as much as possible on the see-saw without popping the balloon.

In turn, place an object from your body in the box.

The person who has put the most weight in the box when the balloon pops wins.

If you pop the balloon, you get zero points.

Time starts on David’s signal.

Task notes

  • The contestants are lined up on stage behind a large seesaw contraption, which has a transparent triangular box on one end, and a sharp point on the other.
  • Suspended above the sharp point is an inflated balloon.
  • The contestants are each wearing a flipper, a boot, a red glove, a black glove, a scarf, a safety vest, a beaded necklace, and a sequined hat.
