How about the fact that the guy emptied the jelly water into the food processor, then CHEWED the banana, instead of putting the banana in the food processor.
Also, it didn't occur to anyone to warm the bottle to loosen the jelly, then stick a hose into the bottom of the bottle to blow the jelly out. Everyone tried to shake the jelly out or fish it out with a spoon handle, which was highly ineffective. I thought the hose method was obvious.
@@Cedar_Wolf But getting a hose up there and it fitting in the bottle with enough room for the jelly to comfortably come out seems difficult, doesn't it?
just heat it a little put some water to it and throw in into the mixer, u can just poor it in easily. if u are a quick thinker u can actually box in all the tasks like melting the banana and getting the jelly out of the bottle etc so u end up with just a couple minutes of work max
@@sxlproductions My first thought was "Doesn't say the bottle needs to be in one piece" Would just smack the top of the bottle on the table and break off the neck of the bottle, then insert the banana.
It was so funny to hear Lee Mack say “I mean I’m tempted to just pour it on the floor, however I have got some dignity, unlike the other people, the YOUNG people, who’ll throw it all over the floor, then they edited it to when Jamali said” can I just pour it on the floor?” XD one of the best bit of editing I’ve ever seen
Has there ever been a moment where anyone has just walked into the lab, seen the task and just said "No." and walked out? If not, that surely has to happen one day. That would have been my response to this task.
I imagine it would be nice to boil water, and use it to rinse out the jelly like Lee did, then use a mixer to mix the banana with some water until it was really fluid. Then use a funnel like jamal did, to pour it in. hindsight is 20 20 though.

I can't help but wonder why the padlock, why 201. The random silliness of finding a code for a lock that didn't need it to be removed, or is there somewhere a locker 201 which houses a handy dandy machine for putting frozen bananas in bottles full of jelly.
Cut the banana in half lengthways, then in half again. Push banana sticks into the bottle which will displace the jelly around it out through the bottle neck. If you need to remove jelly first, insert a tube into the bottle, hold bottle upsidedown, blow.
If the bottle is clear enough - you can just put the banana behind the bottle and have the camera film the bottle with the banana behind it. El presto - banana in bottle.
New to this show and am loving a bit of a binge of it. I would love to be able to compete with silly, fun, analytical tasks/puzzles like these. Can't wait to watch more and from the looks of it there's plenty to devour 😸
I'd have taken the frozen banana, sliced it in length in to small strips en pushed those in the jelly. Jelly comes out when filling and no bananamush :D
The banana strips part makes sense. Not the displacing jelly part. That bottle was full of jelly. A frozen banana is not like a rock, it gives, it would quickly become mush vs. mush.
I feel like the best method is to: 1. Take the banana out into the kitchen. 2. Boil a kettle. 3. Use a food processor to blend the banana. 4. Find a funnel somewhere in the kitchen. 5. Bring all of those things back to the lab. 6. Pour the boiling water into the bottle. 7. Pour the contents out on to the floor. 8. Use the funnel to pour in the frozen bits of banana.
Tasks like this one make me amused how often creative types like comedians and actors really are lateral thinkers. There are tasks where they think outside the box so easily that they either find a genius way to complete something, or a sneaky loophole. Then there are tasks like this that seem to have *really* simple solutions staring them in the face and they just don't think of it, even when they're so close! Microwave the banana -> boil a kettle for the jelly -> blend the softer banana -> pour into bottle through funnel. That feels like it'd take five minutes? Especially if you notice the jelly early enough and boil the kettle the same time as microwaving the banana. Surprised how quick they still managed to get it down all things considered though!
Sometimes I wonder if there is “a right way” to do these tasks, as who ever came up with them must know. The whole thing was so random, frozen banana, vasiline, jelly? There has to be a “Ah ha!” Thing
At first I was thinking that lighting a small piece of paper on fire and putting it in the bottle would create the suction to pull the banana through. Then everything was frozen, and bottle was full of jelly. I had no idea.
Hit the bottom of the bottle with something harder than glass (like a knife from the kitchen), remove bottom (if not fully broken off), shimmy jelly upon floor without any dignity and insert the banana.
AFAIK for the first series they actually did film "the correct solution" that would later be shown, but they decided to drop it, as if makes it seem like there is "one best solution". Now they only show from time to time that there was stuff hidden in the room that would have helped with the task. Series 13 and the "but 6 things into the fish tank to make the water rise" task comes to mind.
If they have sharp kitchen knives you can scratch a circle around the bottle with it 2cm above the bottom. Get a kettle and prepare some boiling water, by pouring hot water over the scratchmark of the cold bottle a lot of thermal stress is introduced, amplified by the scratches. It will fracture nicely and pop the bottom right off. Now you can pour the jelly out and just place the frozen banana inside. Done in 2 minutes.
@@ZiarayZ Oh, overhead that part, my bad 😅 Yeah I guess slicing the banana up into thin strips would have been faster anyway. Maybe. Don't know, haven't tried it yet 😁
The correct or faster solution would be, if you notice another bottle in the kitchen, nowhere was it mentioned directly to this glass, only it was mentioned that the glass must not leave the room 😊
So in hindsight probably best to microwave the banana boil the kettle and add boiling water to the banana and put it back in the microwave boil the kettle again and clean out the jelly then grab the banana blend it and put in bottle Obvs time pressure makes these challenges much harder as you have no time to think
I think the error is to melt the banana. Get a knife and form frozen strips of bananas that can fit through the hole. Mashing it through is more difficult.
@@fluffigverbimmelt From my experience of making banana 'ice cream', leaving a banana for a long time in a normal freezer makes it solid enough to shatter and it has to be defrosted before it can be pureed. But it looks like the bananas in this episode weren't completely frozen solid.
Definitely not. If it was cold enough to shatter into small pieces it would've been cold enough to burn their skin when they touched it. However it's cold enough to slice into thin strips that can easily be dropped into the bottle.
@@romywilliamson4981 compare "cold enough to shatter" to "left it in my freezer for a long while". The shattering bananas had been dried during all the time (uncovered) in the freezer
warm the bottle in a bucket of hot water to liquify the jelly (fill if needed), empty it. heat up the banana, into the mixer, than use a piping bag (or straw if not there) to get it in.
I'm writing this before watching the video fully as I thought it was what one of them would do: Melt the banana with boiling hot water. Blend the banana into a liquid. Make sure to add more water to make sure it's fully liquid. Pour liquid into bottle. Edit: They didn't do it. I'm a genius.
@@blueskies773 That trick would be to pour the liquid into the bottle first, maybe halfway, that would ensure there's enough room and probably enough liquid.
I work in a laboratory. Step one: remove lock from bottle, quickly discovering it's not locked on. Step two: discover jelly Step three: formulate plot to displace jelly and replace with banana in liquid form Step four: prep tools including: food processor, funnel, spoon end, container of hot tap water, and entire microwave, from kitchen into lab Step five: microwave jelly 3 minutes until hot and of low viscosity. While waiting, Step six: process cold banana mixed in with a little hot water into fine purée Step seven: hold the bottom of the bottle and shake/centrifugally eject the entirety of the hot flowing jelly out with pinwheel arm motion. (Also dries dishes fast.) Step eight: mix as much hot water as I can get away with into the banana purée Step nine: pour (or, if fancy, *decant*) low-viscosity banana purée into bottle through funnel. Ten: done
Just throw water in the bottle and microwave both, dump the bottle out and blend the banana use funnel to put in bottle ensure you hold the funnel up a bit to allow air movement. Thats my guess.
Boil kettle and remove jelly with boiling water. Empty some but not all of this liquid into blender. Blend banana in liquid. Use funnel and pour in bottle. Stop the clock.
why did the old guy who removed the jelly so efficiently (which seemed to create the most amount of space in the bottle) only to use the blender as a bowl for the juice instead of blending up the banana?
Het a bucket of hot water, set the bottle in the hot water. Get the knife and dice the banana. Pour the jelly out of the bottle while smacking the bottom, then fill the bottle with the cubed banana pieces.
Microwave the banana and remove the jelly simultaneously, poke a hole in the point of the banana and simply squeeze the mush into the bottle. Cut the peel into strips, insert, and you're done. Easily less than five minutes.
So. I heard: Don't break the bottle AND the bottle may not leave this room So.... take the banana to the kitchen, and look for a mixer. Alright, after watching the first guys. They have a solid approach, combine them and you have an excellent one: Get hot water to empty the bottle. Mix the banana with water (to make it more liquid). Pour the liquid via funnel into the bottle. You have to get everything into the bottle, so best to pour a bit more water into the mixer afterwards, and add it into the bottle as well. Done.
no one seemed to see the loophole. the task didn't say 'this bottle', just said the bottle. so any bottle could have been used. they could have found a bottle in the kitchen wide enough for the banana to be put in and not have to deal with the jelly mess
Good idea although "The" bottle implies specific bottle and "this" banana are supposed to be used, if it said "a" bottle and "a" banana it would be justified.
And not a single person thought of slicing it lengthways into thin enough strips to just drop/push into the bottle. I weep for the task solution that could have been. 🙄😔
If it's hard enough to push, it would shatter instead. If it's soft enough to not shatter, it will smoosh. Banana just doesn't work like a steel beam at any temperature.
Flush jelly out of bottle with hot water. Microwave entire banana. Pour some boiling water into bottle. Jam mushy nuked whole banana into neck of bottle. Water cools, pressure drops, banana is sucked in.
Mathematically speaking, the bottle doesn't have an inside if it's not closer up, the opening is making inside and outside the same and therefore a win
I was so disappointed when Mike left the room with the bottle, because I knew the rest of the execution would be flawless.
E
Had he not done that, he would have won the series
I find it so hilarious that the lock on the bottle doesn't even do anything
And yet they took the time to paste the combination on the bottom of the bottle. It was heartcrushing no one else found that out.

Ngl I’d have broken the top right off the bottle. Misleading lock=solved, Jelly=Scooped, Banana=dropped in whole
why did the old guy who removed the jelly so efficiently (which seemed to create the most amount of space in the bottle) only to use the blender as a bowl for the juice instead of blending up the banana?
So glad I chose to watch this over lunch with headphones.... asmr nightmare!
Het a bucket of hot water, set the bottle in the hot water. Get the knife and dice the banana. Pour the jelly out of the bottle while smacking the bottom, then fill the bottle with the cubed banana pieces.
Microwave the banana and remove the jelly simultaneously, poke a hole
in the point of the banana and simply squeeze the mush into the bottle.
Cut the peel into strips, insert, and you're done. Easily less than five minutes.
It never stated that they had to use "that" bottle and it also just stated only "that" bottle had to leave the room
Blend the banana, use boiling water to get rid of jelly, use funnel to pour blended banana into bottle
Go out, grab any plastic bottle, cut it open, put the banana in… cause it didn’t specify THAT bottle exactly
So.
I heard: Don't break the bottle AND the bottle may not leave this room
So.... take the banana to the kitchen, and look for a mixer.
Alright, after watching the first guys. They have a solid approach, combine them and you have an excellent one:
Get hot water to empty the bottle.
Mix the banana with water (to make it more liquid).
Pour the liquid via funnel into the bottle.
You have to get everything into the bottle, so best to pour a bit more water into the mixer afterwards, and add it into the bottle as well.
Done.
no one seemed to see the loophole. the task didn't say 'this bottle', just said the bottle. so any bottle could have been used. they could have found a bottle in the kitchen wide enough for the banana to be put in and not have to deal with the jelly mess
Good idea although "The" bottle implies specific bottle and "this" banana are supposed to be used, if it said "a" bottle and "a" banana it would be justified.
I just want to see a compilation of contestants giving Alex sas.
Idve thought simply slicing up the frozen banana would've been a good way to go, a blowtorch to the bottle would've melted the jelly?
"Your time starts now. Does that mean now?"
Gelatin becomes liquid when hot. They should have put the bottle in a bowl of boiled water.
I bet this task was constructed from that one cant use a banana instead of a ship joke
Elephant in the room: bottle out of the room.
This is the best cast, they're all so funny and cool.
And not a single person thought of slicing it lengthways into thin enough strips to just drop/push into the bottle.
I weep for the task solution that could have been. 🙄😔
Pretty hard to do with a frozen or a quickly thawed banana.
@@Bronzescorpion A knife can cut a defrosting barnarnar.
If it's hard enough to push, it would shatter instead. If it's soft enough to not shatter, it will smoosh. Banana just doesn't work like a steel beam at any temperature.
Thank you for showing the point part of the video
Hot water for the jelly, banana and water blend to make pouring it in easier.
Is there no blender in the kitchen?
"oh that's disgusting :(((" said the man touching ice
2 minutes after the guys is just vomiting the banana inside a bottle with a mixer 20 cm away
Flush jelly out of bottle with hot water. Microwave entire banana. Pour some boiling water into bottle. Jam mushy nuked whole banana into neck of bottle. Water cools, pressure drops, banana is sucked in.
Loved this series and task.
Mathematically speaking, the bottle doesn't have an inside if it's not closer up, the opening is making inside and outside the same and therefore a win
