Attempts

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

Lina sticks to her initial strategy of throwing a basketball at the ducks for quite some time before realising that the rope can be moved. She then carries the rope with her, walks right up to the ducks, and knocks them all down with her hands. She earns third place with her time of 2 minutes.
Nikolaj throws a wide range of objects at the ducks - including buckets, a sledge, a basketball, and a life ring - before realising that the rope can be moved. Carrying the rope with him, he then walks right up to the remaining ducks and knocks them down with his hands. His total time is not stated, but he earns fourth place overall, so it must have been over 2 minutes.
Christian immediately identifies that the rope can be moved. While carrying it with him, he uses a short stick to fell all of the ducks in just 20 seconds, winning the task by quite a margin.
Ruben is also quick to identify that the rope can be moved, but slightly slower to complete the task. Carrying the rope with him, he uses a small hand-held rake to fell all of the ducks in 1 minute and 14 seconds, placing second overall.
Julie starts off well, identifying that she can use string to pull over the fence panels from behind the rope. However, she then accidentally knocks over some ducks while preparing, panics, and starts felling the rest of the ducks from in front of the rope. She is therefore disqualified from the task for breaking the rules.
