Task brief

The task brief is stood up on the table in the lab, and leant against the wall behind. The brief for the task is as follows:

Divert the sand from bucket A into bucket B.

You may not touch the sand.

You may not move the buckets.

You may not leave the room.

Most sand diverted into bucket B wins.

Your time stops when the sand ends.

Task notes

  • Also on or next to the table are a straw broom, a pair of flip-flops, two mangos, a small metal sieve, a teaspoon, a dessert spoon, a large wooden sieve, a wooden spoon, a toilet toll, and four eggcups.
  • As the contestants enter the lab, Nuno places one of their wrists through a loop of string dangling from a cork. The cork is plugging a small hole in a metal bucket full of sand (labelled ‘A’), which is dangling from the ceiling by some chain.
  • Next to the table, there is a second metal bucket, labelled ‘B’, into which the sand must be transferred.
  • Bucket ‘A’ and the task brief on the table are far enough apart that most people will be unable to reach the brief without pulling out the cork from the bottom of the bucket, which then starts the sand flowing onto the floor.
