Exactly, I guess some people can'r figure it out..
Put handle in bottle neck jack, turn approx 1/8th of a turn to the right to confirm the valve is closed, should pump up normally, now turn the jack handle SLOWLY the other way,and the vehicle will fall.
..Was peter still carrying a backpack? It seemed they had to run on this narrow isthmus in a rice paddy. It would of been pretty hard to carry another person and remain balanced and not slip. I think Mary (sprained Ankle) slipped a few times on that because the Single Mom's mentioning about not being able to help her.
Regarding team TnT, perhaps teams that use illegal methods of transportation should be penalized the time saved + 30 minutes. like if it was a 1 mile hike and they used the motorbikes, perhaps a 15 minute + 30 minute penalty at the end.
Sarah doesn't seem to be the type who would let anybody, Peter included, help her out. Maybe that' just my take on her, but I find a lot of physically challenged people are like that. I doubt she would be happy to have Peter carry her, even if it meant not finishing last and at that point, she probably also knew there were teams behind them during the coal packing challenge...
Maybe she should get a little tin oilcup like the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz and lube her knee a bit every now and then
Any word on how the ratings have been this season? I haven't managed to find a weekly Neilsen report, but I am enjoying this year's groups quite a bit.
I like The Futon Critic for that kind of info. They have it indexed by show (Shows A-Z in the top menu). But they just did a redesign and they might be a bit behind in updates.
This episode was pretty entertaining. I hate the team of Rob and Kimberly, and actively root against them. Peter is a tool. T&T at the end got funnier and funnier as their despair level went higher and higher.
I really can't stand Rob and Kimbery, that relationship is doomed. And what the heck was Rob babbling about with his "I'm tired of talking to foreigners." remark? Perhaps he's forgotten where he is...he's the foreigner lol!
Peter began to get on my nerves when he allowed her to climb that mountain instead of electing to do it himself, even if she wanted to do it there's no way I would have put her through that while I sat back and sipped a drink while relaxing on a boat!
Tom and Terry had a very Cool Runnings moment when he dragged that boat in, sort of reminded me of Frodo and Sam lol.
I love the Back Pack group, even though they've suffered a casualty tonight (of course, Tom and Terry were by far my least favorite of them so I don't mind).
Go David/Mary, Erwin/Godwin, and Lyn/Karlyn! Get out soon Peter/Sarah and Rob/Kimberly! The rest I don't care about.
Yeah, I was completely comfused why is Sarah doing all the rope stuff while Peter sits there making smug comments and encouragement. Both of them probably don't realize that just because it doesn't involve running, when climbing with the Petzl ascenders they are using, it is much more efficient to have use of both legs rather than one. And it's also faster if they had 2 ascenders (left and right) versus the one they had but perhaps it's too much coordination to expect of these guys.
I'm surprised how most teams had no idea how to row a boat with oars.... I was really waiting for one of the teams to capsize doing the pearl challenge too!
