Ant & Dec foot them $25,000.
First up, from Midland, TX, MIKE LLOYD, a Spanish teacher. If you saw "The Gong
Show", you know what's coming next. That's right, it's the guy that kicks
himself in the head! Tonight, he'll try to pull a reach-around with his foot to
a buzzer on his head 45 times in a minute.

Which puts Corbin in the lead to begin and Tom... wearing the... thing. And
everyone else having fun with it.
Meanwhile, Ant is outside of the studio with the next challengers, JACK
ZIMKIEWICZ and JUSTIN BARNES. They are construction equipment salesmen and
operators. They claim they can pick up a single piece of uncooked spaghetti in
between two tractors, then carry it 20 feet to a waiting vat of tomato sauce in
2:30.

Corbin still leads. As for Rip... "Fire the coach."
Next up, a man who lets people just walk all over him. From Maselheim, Germany,
THOMAS SCHUSTER. He entertains at children's party, but he can also tell other
people's weights by having them stand on his stomach.
CHALLENGE |
Guess
weigh of 4 out of 5 people (with 2 kg - 4.5 lbs) by standing on
stomach... blindfolded |

The bet... is on. First up, #24. She weighs in at 62.7 kg (137.9 lbs). Thomas
guesses 58 kg... No. Next up, #21. She weighs in at 71.6 kg (157.5 lbs)...
Thomas says 71.5 kg. Off by 0.1. That's one. Next up, #19. He tips the scales at
77.8 kg (171.2 lbs)... Thomas goes with 78 kg... Off by 0.2. That's three. Next
up, #17. She has a weight of 46.6 kg (102.5 lbs). Thomas guesses 53.5.... Nope,
so that's a fail.

And we have our first suck-out of the series. And on only the second show. It's
basically Corbin's game to lose at this point.
Rip's going to attempt to buy in. Sorry, pal. Nothing doing.
Final challenge of the night is KAITLYN CONNER from Blue Springs, MO. She's an
11-year-old who roller skates. She's been skating since she was 3. She can do
one particular trick on her skates... skating under 12 limbo bars 11 inches off
the ground... both front ways and back.
Wagers are locked in and the bet is on. Remember to wear safety gear when
skating. Kaitlyn will not because she's an expert. She has the forward roll
down... Can she do it backwards? YES!
Let's go to the board.
SUCCESS |
Skate
under limbo bars forward and backward |
