    I wonder if it had been enough to just pick up the bag of salt from under the table and put it on top of it. The task just says "put it on the table over there", it doesn't specify which one. The contestants just assumed it must be the other table because the sugar was laying on top of the first. Alex, you sneaky sneaky bastard!

      This is strictly speaking irrelevant since it doesn't say you must immediately return only that you must. So pick the bag up, place it on the table without moving from where you picked it up from, and then return to your starting point.

    Ignoring the fact that the bag on the table was sugar, and people pointed out since the bag of salt started on the ground so they can't even start since if it touches the ground they have to go back to the start, I'm surprised no one moved the other table. Run over, pick up the small table one person could easily carry, put it next to the other then the salts right there.

    You know? They could have put the bag inside a jacket, put the jacket on the ground (the bag isn't touching the ground: the jacket is). Then they spin in their axis, so the belt becomes tight (no risk of belt touching the ground). Tie the jacket to the belt (hanging). Now nobody is holding the salt: they are suspending the salt. Walk together. Place the salt. Hindsight is 20/20

    • @lisahenry20
      @lisahenry20 2 года назад +1

      But it depends on how Greg defines 'hold'. Similar to what Mack said, if he has salt in a carrier and someone asks if he's holding (he said carrying) the salt, it would be correct to say that he's holding the salt. Even if the salt is being suspended by the belt between people, Greg would be able to argue that you're holding it while moving and therefore disqualify your attempt.
