You may not tamper with or remove your exercise ball vest.

Task notes
- The contestants arrive at the scene of the task wearing special utility vests, to which four slings have been attached to hold exercise balls: one on the contestant’s front, one on their back, and one hanging from each side of their waist.
- A red rectangle has been marked out in tape on the ground, around the red T-shaped tetromino upon which the task brief was presented, indicating the footprint of the tower to be constructed.
- Colourful shapes made from cardboard boxes are hidden around the grounds of the Taskmaster house.
- Although most of the shapes to be collected are valid tetrominoes, there are also some trominoes.
- There’s a square purple tetromino on the table in the lab, a yellow L-shaped tromino at the side of the house, an orange skew tetromino on the bar, a blue skew tetromino in the shed, a straight green tromino in the caravan, and a second yellow L-shaped tromino in the bed of the ute.
- The finished tower is a square measuring five boxes on each side.
