Attempts

Here's a description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to add later!

  • Al puts his hand through the roll and quickly pulls the tape off in 55 seconds, earning 5 points.
  • Dave unrolls the tape by holding on to the loose end, and repeatedly flinging the rest of the roll away from himself. He occasionally hits himself with the reel of tape while using this technique. He completes the task in 1 minute and 14 seconds, and earns 3 points.
  • Paul puts his hand through the roll and pulls the tape off in 1 minute and 12 seconds, earning 4 points.
  • Sara gradually unwinds the tape in 1 minute and 46 seconds, earning 2 points.
  • Rob unwinds the tape from its roll quickly, but makes the mistake of winding it tightly around his own hand. This ultimately means that he is unable to remove the tape at the end, to get it into the lunchbox. The tape remains tightly wrapped around his hands as the contestants return to their seats for the scoring of the task, and he earns zero points.
