That Slovenian guy is such an absolute legend, not only did he lie to Ben and Sam but then ran as quickly as he could to Adam to warn him... he deserves to be a guest star in some next game for sure!

Teo and his friends are my favorite part of this game. They got so invested and were totally on the side of the crazy American looking for cheese balls.
I kinda hope that in the future, they make a game centered around nightlife. Having a group of drunks helping some insane tourists sounds like an absolute blast (although it is way more likely to go wrong ig)
I don't mean to sound like a dick but I've been to small towns and I'm pretty sure this is the most exciting thing happening in Nova Gorica, Slovenia that day, I'm sure those guys were thrilled to partake
It’s 9am in Susegana Italy, you, an American man, throw ten mysterious gummies into a hearty cup of aperol, and a long line of little Italian kids stroll past while their teachers look at you, their faces visibly concerned.

Yes! I'm always super thankful for the outstanding captions in this series. I usually am pretty happy when any channel has more than the auto-generated captions, but Jet Lag's are absolutely top tier.

So to the captions person, sincerely they do great work.

@@stevenwinnipeg6784 because some times they are in public places where they cannot talk freely without being a distrubance to others. so they keep the mic close to their mouths to be able to speak in a lower volume and still be heard in the video, without being too noisy in that environment.
Trenitalia comes in clutch! Can't have a good show, without some needed train delays! That said, Trenitalia is actually decent (and cheap) in some places.
Yeaaaaaaaaaa, if he had just kept flipping it how he was doing it, he would have possibly got it. Those small controlled flips vs the big standing still flip took away all his control
@@zoeszlips9373 No, if he wouldn't have moved the chance would have been much higher than 50%. A coind flip is not random, it isn't even really pseudo random. There are a few factors like wind and stuff but they can be ignored for this. The major factors are basically the power of the toss, the direction of the toss and where and how you catch it.

Am I the only one who feels like the bus is the biggest opportunity in this game? In Europe, there are many local bus routes that rival the train in speed and distance. They're half the price and super unpredictable for the hunters. Maybe they have a rule against buses that cross regional boundaries but if not, that would be a great way to avoid high speed rail routes.
But it costs coins per minute. You don't get far by bus and you'll loose a lot of coins. But to get away, it's probably useful. Sadly you don't know when they're behind you.
@@irissupercoolsy True; under the coins per minute setup, bus use feels like it would have to be a strategic short term move. Far enough and fast enough that walking isn't viable and so the spent of coin is worth it by that metric. Close and/or short enough that train or other faster transit isn't viable. This kind of limits it's usage to a quick escape, as a mover between two stations where close timing is a factor, that sort of thing. Alternatively, a situation where bus is the ONLY option eg, you train into a small village and then bus further along. Though the route would have to be pretty strategically valuable to do something like that.
I also wish the included more forms of transport. It's basically train schedule: the game now. Especially with Italy the temptation for a ferry must have been present.
I made a simulation of 100,000 of Adam's seven heads in a row challenge. On average, it took 254 flips. (This checks out mathematically.) Adam flipped his coin *694* times. For perspective, *93.674%* of the simulation's runs completed the challenge before 694 flips. Man, Adam was supremely unlucky.
For this interested, here's my work: import random counter = 0 i=0 roundcount = [] highest = 0 lowest = 100000 notAdam = 0 for x in range(100000): roundcount.append(0) while i highest: highest = roundcount[x] if roundcount[x] < 694: notAdam += 1 total = 0 for round in roundcount: total += round print("Average total flips:" + str(total/100000)) print("Highest: " + str(highest)) print("Lowest: " + str(lowest)) print("Percentage of rounds below 694: " + str(notAdam/1000) + "%") I'm no programmer, so don't judge too harshly lol but i'm confident it works.

As a rather introvert person, seeing how adam speaks loudly and confidently into the camera while sitting in a silent bus or shopping is somewhat strange for me :D
It's not only you being introverted. Adam was too loud in the bus, it's considered bad manners here (Europe). Adam was being a dick in Swiss church too. No self awareness. Funny how they weren't as loud on the Japan trains. It's american-like to be loud, entitled, obnoxious even, that's why most of the world don't like US tourists in general.
@@arenacoder Someone in another comment said that they are very close to the mic and also amplify the sound later, so it's a lot quieter in real life. I can sort of believe that because as far as I can see, he isn't getting any dirty looks. On the other hand, he is American and in my experience, Americans are simply very loud without even realizing it.
@@arenacoder they don't seem to get dirty looks on trains and stuff. Also most trains I go on have quiet compartments. If you're going to be upsrt by people talking, stick to the quiet compartments.
I feel like Adam was getting into in a physical rhythm with the coin flips (giving himself greater than 50/50 odds) and then kept screwing it up by stopping and making a big deal of the last flip. If he just kept going with that same rhythm he probably would have gotten it.
100% Once he had the right side he got in the rhythm of getting the same flips over and over again (same as when he was getting a bunch wrong sides). Stopping that rhythm screwed him over sadly
Not to mention that you're looking at getting it like every ~1/250 flips anyways. He was just getting unlucky. Would have been quicker to complete it than take a 30 minute penalty imo
Adam developing his 'count using step speed' superpower these last few games has been incredible to watch. I mean, that extra 0.011 kilometers is only 36 feet!!!
@@jtl-08 Americans interacting with the metric system is an experience. I don't think I've ever seen someone write 0,011 km outside of maybe an elementary school maths class about units of length.
@@arenacoder Thats on you for checking comments before watching the videos. Like what the fuck do you expect people to talk about if not the stuff that happens in the video?
For almost the entire episode I wanted Adam to win, but as soon as it became Sam's turn I want him to win. It's going to happen for Ben when it's his turn as well! I'm just thankful that RUclips showed me these guys many moons ago because I enjoy watching all three of them!
the coin flip sequence was so frustrating, because it's not just a 50/50, it's about how you throw the coin, the reason Adam could make it to 6 thrice was because he got a rhythm going, he was flipping it the same way every time on beat, and then every time on the seventh flip he decided to throw his rhythm away, stop walking, set up his camera at a stationary location, and hail mary it
yeeeeeees this, I was literally screaming at the screen every time he stopped to set up the shot, I knew he would fail it for sure, or at least that he turned a very likely success into a 50/50 pure luck shot. Muscle memory is a thing, and flipping a coin after 600 attempts is absolutely not 50/50, you can definitely improve your odds significantly by always throwing it with the same motion on the same beat, because physics... if you throw it from the same position, with the same motion at the same power it will land the same way...especially for someone as consistent as Adam is...I mean the man measured 1km within 10 meters
The odds of achieving 7 heads in a row are also incredibly low. To get this, you have to divide the percent through 100, so 50% = 0.5. Now, for each throw, you have to multiply 0.5 with itself, so 2 throws are 0.5 x 0.5, 3 0.5 x 0.5 x0.5, and so on. With seven throws, you'll get 0.008, or a 0.8% chance to complete the challenge, meaning that the chances to get it with 100 attempts (1-7 flips) are under 1%. I would have vetoed it far sooner given the incredible low odds, 600 bucks are just not enough for that.
The editing is always AMAZING in these. Even just this: Adam getting to 6 heads in a row and then tails for the second time with him just looking completely broken. Next scene: “It’s better to give him hope and then completely crush it.” Putting those two scenes together really just emphasises both so much!
He had a really constant throw but he didn't realise it. That's why he had so many streaks of tails and then all of a sudden a streak of heads. He flips such that the coin always lands on the same side as it started on. And when he set the camera he was getting needlessly stressed about it and then he threw way higher than he was doing while walking, which obviously messed up his throw
Had the pleasure to meet you in Ferrara just second before the train you took at the start, it was a real pleasure to meet you! I was waiting this video for long and now i can finally see what you were up too! Thanks for the photo boys, love you from italy ❤❤
@@athen1928 the thing with English is that you dont usually check correct pronunciations of things, you just guess it, because English does not have pronunciation rules. So I'm guessing they apply similar logic rather than just learning the rules. Or they just don't care as much lol
Man that coin flipping had to be so crushing. How many more times did he get to 4 or 5 that we didn't see. I figure where Adam went wrong was doing the flips differently in the 7th attempt, breaking out of his rhythm of solid flips. poor guy
I was annoyed that he kept on pausing for the 7th one, not only does it slow you down but as you said it breaks your rhythm. He should've just kept on walking, doing as many coin flips as possible.
The mistake was not vetoing that from the start. The odds are so incredibly low, I think you just take the veto period since you’re walking anyways. Then you try to get luckier on the next challenge
@@rice2meatu The chances are not that low, the way Adam is doing it makes is not 50/50, big sports games always flip the coin to the ground snd not in their hand so it isn't rigged
Aaaah! I can't believe you were in Slovenia. Guess this means i'm rooting for Adam this season:) If anyone was wondering about the pronounciation: Nova Gorica is pronounced something like noh-vah (the o is like in pot) goh-ree-tza (same o, the c is pronounced like the zz in pizza) Dobrodošli v Sloveniji would be doh-broh-doh-shlee (all o-s are like in pot) vuh sloh-veh-nee-yee (same o, the j is generally pronounced like the y in player) And fun fact: Nova Gorica just means New Goritzia, because Gorica used to be Slovenian (with both Italian and Slovenian residents), but then the border got placed there during ww2, cutting Slovenians off from it, and so Nova Gorica was built. They are basically one big town, but there was a fence and there were people who had half their family on the other side, it was quite a complicated situation for a while. There's a small museum about it next to the train station i believe and a monument on Europe square, where the border used to be.
Fun fact: while on a general level coins are roughly 50/50, there is a same-side bias! This means that you have around 50.8% of landing on the side you started on. This was tested with over 300000 flips and over 40 different currencies.
I'm not complaining, Tag Across Europe 1 was the first season of jetlag that I watched, and after that I went back and watched the two seasons before it
We're so back! I could watch like 35 seasons of Tag. You should do an "Impossible" edition in the Balkans in summer aka bad trains, little to no a/c, 40 degrees C, delays that amount to hours and vibes
adam being overly paranoid and trying to play five steps ahead, completely unaware that ben and sam keep getting delayed and cant even follow his original trail is killing me
Assuming a fair coin with an even chance of landing on either side on any given toss, the odds of flipping heads seven times in a row, as an isolated event, are 1/128, or 0.78125%. However, after flipping the coin 694 times, the odds of at least one string of seven heads occurring at any point in the run skyrocket to _93.755%._ Adam wasn't just unlucky, he was _RIDICULOUSLY_ unlucky.
@@by0669 Yeah but I theorise when he was flipping the heads he was getting into a rhythm of flipping the same way but when he stopped to set up the camera he lost it leaving it to be a true 50/50 which just happened to not be in his favour
As an Austrian I am obviously cheering for Adam as Bratislava is like 30 minutes away from Vienna and most of the route he has to take is going through Austria ✨️
Same here! I live in Wieselburg-Ungarish-Altenburg (Mosonmagyaróvár, Hungary), and Bratislava is only 30-40 from here. I was kinda hoping that he will be much closer
Oh I just LOVE this series. Especially if you have yourself some unreliable trains. Can't wait to watch it all! Adam just being absolutely amazing at guessing how long a kilometer is is stunning. Wooow that was nearly perfect. "I really hope Susegana has stores." You'd assume they have SOME. Also appreciate Adam just walking off with that cup. Oh no, Sams shirt, what a shame! Though, with some hilarious timing, getting snagged just as Ben tells him to be stealthy. Also, major props to that slovenian guy who sent Ben and Sam the other direction and then ran back to warn Adam. Great fan. "Maybe they just won't notice me?" "He's there." Great cut, thanks. xD It was great, but not quite enough. Though, Adam came far, really.
Yes, new Jet Lag: The Game! 1) Love how respectful you are of background characters, especially children, by blurring them out. 2) the fact that the Snack Zone is so short and sweet is the funniest thing; it's perfect like that. 3) I always wanted to comment and say Adam's voice always reminds me of Animaniacs :) 4) Ben: Yeah, go get him, Sam. Run. Hilarious
Wait I just realised something Tag 1- s3 Tag 2-s7 Tag 3-s11 Tag 4?-s15? So maybe we have a tag every 4 seasons and also someone mentioned every summer so props to them. Edit: Rip Sam’s shirt.

Ive downloaded this to watch on my 2 hour connecting flight while being insanely jet lagged from a 12 hour flight, watching jet lag the way god intended
Adam pissed me off so much when he stopped his momentum on the 7th toss like just keep tossing don’t stop build it up bc then your form changes. The reason you got six in a row was because you use the same movement ughhhh
Mate, it's just luck, and you're just being superstitious. You're not going to learn how to "use the same movement" in order to flip a coin the same way in half an hour.
@@wloffblizz It's not just luck tho, it's pure physics, if you lay the coin down in the exact same way, and hit it the exact same way, it will land on the same side every single time. The only thing that was bad luck was losing the 3 50/50s after setting up each final shot
@@wloffblizz you're being superstitious, a coin flip can be entirely decided by how you throw the coin, there's nothing telling the coin that it must be 50/50 every time, and yes building up a muscle memory is going to increase your chances to 99% eventually
It's so exciting to see the Jet Lag Boys talking about Trieste and going through Slovenia! I live about 30km from Trieste in my little Slovenian university town and I've taken the Venice to Trieste train so many times :) Tag is my favorite Jet Lag game - can't wait for the rest of the season!
Best subtitles ever, I’m so greatful that they put money or effort into it. Makes the experience of watching much more inclusive/enjoyable for many folks
adam is so good at predicting time/distance by walking. one of the most memorable things from last season was how he predicted 30 minutes with 0.69 second error just by walking.
For the gummy throw Adam should've used the Taskmaster strategy of building a 'funnel' out of cardboard or a plastic bag so he'd just have to hit that 😂
I wonder if, as one of the people that comes up with the tasks, Adam was too concerned with doing things according to the "spirit" of the task instead of trying to find a workaround.
That would've taken some time to find the supplies and set up which means that if he still failed despite that, the veto period would've prevented him from taking the bus.
And he went to Slovenia. The country with worse delays than germany. Slovenske železnice is so bad that when I went to Germany, I was genuenly surprised that the delays were only a few minutes. I've had 100 minute delays on the Ljubljana-Maribor track

Stopping that rhythm screwed him over sadly
Not to mention that you're looking at getting it like every ~1/250 flips anyways. He was just getting unlucky. Would have been quicker to complete it than take a 30 minute penalty imo
The people on the bus hearing "Now all we have to do is get to Conegliano without getting caught" as soon as be boarded the train💀

Adam developing his 'count using step speed' superpower these last few games has been incredible to watch. I mean, that extra 0.011 kilometers is only 36 feet!!!
That's like 11 meters

Love how Ben knew he would be slower and just was like "Go get him Sam" in 100% confidence.
Adam, Bro. You broke your rhythm every time you got to six! Just flip again right away!
yup - it just kept throwing another spanner into the mix of chaos theory.
Between his step based clock last season, and the first challenge of this, I'm convinced Adam Chase's superpower is measuring things by walking.
37:24 did you know 90% percent of Jetlag players veto challenges right before they make it big
Aw dangit
I feel like he probably would’ve done it but him stopping to put down the camera to get the shot threw off his flipping pattern

For almost the entire episode I wanted Adam to win, but as soon as it became Sam's turn I want him to win. It's going to happen for Ben when it's his turn as well! I'm just thankful that RUclips showed me these guys many moons ago because I enjoy watching all three of them!

as a slovak i am contractually obligated to cheer for adam this season (sorry ben 😔😔😔)
Same for me here! I was excited like a small child when they showed Bratislava!
omg its reeon
🇸🇰🇸🇰🇸🇰💪💪💪
As a Czech I would rather like to see Prague there
I'm polish and I'm super excited too. This is the closest they've ever been to my country
the coin flip sequence was so frustrating, because it's not just a 50/50, it's about how you throw the coin, the reason Adam could make it to 6 thrice was because he got a rhythm going, he was flipping it the same way every time on beat, and then every time on the seventh flip he decided to throw his rhythm away, stop walking, set up his camera at a stationary location, and hail mary it
Nah, I do believe he threw it high enough and it flipped enough times in the air, impossible to build a rhythm for that
@@MrMoonyyyI disagree
yeeeeeees this, I was literally screaming at the screen every time he stopped to set up the shot, I knew he would fail it for sure, or at least that he turned a very likely success into a 50/50 pure luck shot. Muscle memory is a thing, and flipping a coin after 600 attempts is absolutely not 50/50, you can definitely improve your odds significantly by always throwing it with the same motion on the same beat, because physics... if you throw it from the same position, with the same motion at the same power it will land the same way...especially for someone as consistent as Adam is...I mean the man measured 1km within 10 meters
Also vetoing out of frustration was just not worth it. He would have probably gotten it in the 30mins
The odds of achieving 7 heads in a row are also incredibly low. To get this, you have to divide the percent through 100, so 50% = 0.5. Now, for each throw, you have to multiply 0.5 with itself, so 2 throws are 0.5 x 0.5, 3 0.5 x 0.5 x0.5, and so on. With seven throws, you'll get 0.008, or a 0.8% chance to complete the challenge, meaning that the chances to get it with 100 attempts (1-7 flips) are under 1%. I would have vetoed it far sooner given the incredible low odds, 600 bucks are just not enough for that.
I like how Ben said "okay Sam, go get him." like some evil mastermind commanding his muscle to beat up the hero of the story.
The editing is always AMAZING in these.
Even just this:
Adam getting to 6 heads in a row and then tails for the second time with him just looking completely broken.
Next scene: “It’s better to give him hope and then completely crush it.”
Putting those two scenes together really just emphasises both so much!
37:46 I'd like to think Adam's issue with the challenge is every time he decides to pause when he's on a hot streak
Also not starting with heads up. That's a 2% swing across at least 600 coinflips, definitely could have made a difference.
He had a really constant throw but he didn't realise it. That's why he had so many streaks of tails and then all of a sudden a streak of heads. He flips such that the coin always lands on the same side as it started on. And when he set the camera he was getting needlessly stressed about it and then he threw way higher than he was doing while walking, which obviously messed up his throw
Ye it acc annoyed me so much like just flip it one more time instead of stopping and setting up the shot
@@rubydupyII Needlessly stressed about it is also his character trait that's constant throughout all of the Jet Lag seasons 😂😂
That random guy helping Adam and lying to Ben and Sam was honestly hilarious😂

@@athen1928 the thing with English is that you dont usually check correct pronunciations of things, you just guess it, because English does not have pronunciation rules. So I'm guessing they apply similar logic rather than just learning the rules. Or they just don't care as much lol
some day adam will learn that latin letters are read differently in different languages but not today, not today!
Hearing Conegliano read like that had me dying
Man that coin flipping had to be so crushing. How many more times did he get to 4 or 5 that we didn't see.
I figure where Adam went wrong was doing the flips differently in the 7th attempt, breaking out of his rhythm of solid flips. poor guy
I was annoyed that he kept on pausing for the 7th one, not only does it slow you down but as you said it breaks your rhythm. He should've just kept on walking, doing as many coin flips as possible.
There was no reason to veto that challenge also
He had a 93.7% chance of winning the challenge in that many flips. Just tragic
The mistake was not vetoing that from the start. The odds are so incredibly low, I think you just take the veto period since you’re walking anyways. Then you try to get luckier on the next challenge
@@rice2meatu The chances are not that low, the way Adam is doing it makes is not 50/50, big sports games always flip the coin to the ground snd not in their hand so it isn't rigged
can we appreciate how their style has not changed since day 1
timeless!
yup
We are so back
Perfect since the start!
If it aint broke
adam getting the guesstimate down to the TENTH is insane 😭😭😭😭
Down to the hundredth actually.
Not really surprising, one of the recent seasons showed how consistent his walking is, so Adam seemed like the only able to win that challenge
@@TheGodIvy The Aussie one yeah
As a European I laughed so hard at "What is the kilometer?"
@@lety0udown963 I'm just impressed that he was able to successfully convert his *speed*. Instead of the obvious move of taking 1000 big steps
Aaaah! I can't believe you were in Slovenia. Guess this means i'm rooting for Adam this season:)
If anyone was wondering about the pronounciation:
Nova Gorica is pronounced something like noh-vah (the o is like in pot) goh-ree-tza (same o, the c is pronounced like the zz in pizza)
Dobrodošli v Sloveniji would be doh-broh-doh-shlee (all o-s are like in pot) vuh sloh-veh-nee-yee (same o, the j is generally pronounced like the y in player)
And fun fact: Nova Gorica just means New Goritzia, because Gorica used to be Slovenian (with both Italian and Slovenian residents), but then the border got placed there during ww2, cutting Slovenians off from it, and so Nova Gorica was built. They are basically one big town, but there was a fence and there were people who had half their family on the other side, it was quite a complicated situation for a while. There's a small museum about it next to the train station i believe and a monument on Europe square, where the border used to be.
Fun fact: while on a general level coins are roughly 50/50, there is a same-side bias! This means that you have around 50.8% of landing on the side you started on. This was tested with over 300000 flips and over 40 different currencies.
Sheer joy is opening the RUclips app and finding a fresh new Jet Lag episode!

If anyone is interested, the coin Adam was flipping, is an Austrian 2 Euro! With the novelist and activist Bertha Von Suttoner on the back

Pretty sure it's spelled without o
Those Slovenias really saved Adam in the end. So much time for Sam lost
Adam is Fast
Sam is Smart
and Ben is just having fun
Assuming a fair coin with an even chance of landing on either side on any given toss, the odds of flipping heads seven times in a row, as an isolated event, are 1/128, or 0.78125%. However, after flipping the coin 694 times, the odds of at least one string of seven heads occurring at any point in the run skyrocket to _93.755%._ Adam wasn't just unlucky, he was _RIDICULOUSLY_ unlucky.
I think it's because he took time to set up his camera which took him out of his rhythm of heads.
@@WonkyWater-YT You do know how randomness works right?
And btw i wouldnt call it ridiculously unlucky but ye unlucky!
@@by0669 Yeah but I theorise when he was flipping the heads he was getting into a rhythm of flipping the same way but when he stopped to set up the camera he lost it leaving it to be a true 50/50 which just happened to not be in his favour
@@WonkyWater-YT Every coin-flip is a true 50/50 there is no such thing as a "rythm" your "theory" is just wrong brush up on basic stochastiks please.
I was thinking he should've either stopped to do the flip, or kept walking while flipping.
As an Austrian I am obviously cheering for Adam as Bratislava is like 30 minutes away from Vienna and most of the route he has to take is going through Austria ✨️
never mind i think he won't be in Austria much 😂
Same here! I hope he goes through Graz, but I'm pretty sure if he manages to even get into austria, it will be through Innsbruck or Klagenfurt
Same here! I live in Wieselburg-Ungarish-Altenburg (Mosonmagyaróvár, Hungary), and Bratislava is only 30-40 from here. I was kinda hoping that he will be much closer

Adam just being absolutely amazing at guessing how long a kilometer is is stunning. Wooow that was nearly perfect.
"I really hope Susegana has stores." You'd assume they have SOME. Also appreciate Adam just walking off with that cup.
Oh no, Sams shirt, what a shame! Though, with some hilarious timing, getting snagged just as Ben tells him to be stealthy.
Also, major props to that slovenian guy who sent Ben and Sam the other direction and then ran back to warn Adam. Great fan.
"Maybe they just won't notice me?" "He's there." Great cut, thanks. xD
It was great, but not quite enough. Though, Adam came far, really.
Slovenian Guy is the MVP of this challenge!
Yes, new Jet Lag: The Game! 1) Love how respectful you are of background characters, especially children, by blurring them out. 2) the fact that the Snack Zone is so short and sweet is the funniest thing; it's perfect like that. 3) I always wanted to comment and say Adam's voice always reminds me of Animaniacs :) 4) Ben: Yeah, go get him, Sam. Run. Hilarious
They are in Italy and eat in McDonald's tho 😭
In Austria, they don’t put ice in soda, let alone coffee. Their iced coffee (eiskaffee) is coffee over ice cream. So no, Ben, no iced coffee for you.
And of course in Italy that's called an "affogato".

Nope, we put ice in soda. But you’re right with the iced coffee. It’s typically made with ice cream

Adam pissed me off so much when he stopped his momentum on the 7th toss like just keep tossing don’t stop build it up bc then your form changes. The reason you got six in a row was because you use the same movement ughhhh
Right!?
Mate, it's just luck, and you're just being superstitious. You're not going to learn how to "use the same movement" in order to flip a coin the same way in half an hour.
@@wloffblizz It's not just luck tho, it's pure physics, if you lay the coin down in the exact same way, and hit it the exact same way, it will land on the same side every single time. The only thing that was bad luck was losing the 3 50/50s after setting up each final shot
@@wloffblizz you're being superstitious, a coin flip can be entirely decided by how you throw the coin, there's nothing telling the coin that it must be 50/50 every time, and yes building up a muscle memory is going to increase your chances to 99% eventually
you guys should do a challenge in the swedish archipelago. the ferries, boats, woods, and chases would be insane
Adam: gets six in a row.. hurray! establishes momentum and muscle memory...
also Adam: breaks momentum and muscle memory by stopping
It's so exciting to see the Jet Lag Boys talking about Trieste and going through Slovenia! I live about 30km from Trieste in my little Slovenian university town and I've taken the Venice to Trieste train so many times :) Tag is my favorite Jet Lag game - can't wait for the rest of the season!

The coin flipping was brutal to watch
Best subtitles ever, I’m so greatful that they put money or effort into it. Makes the experience of watching much more inclusive/enjoyable for many folks
adam is so good at predicting time/distance by walking. one of the most memorable things from last season was how he predicted 30 minutes with 0.69 second error just by walking.
For the gummy throw Adam should've used the Taskmaster strategy of building a 'funnel' out of cardboard or a plastic bag so he'd just have to hit that 😂
Also under handed throw so the angle to get it in is wider.
I had that idea too, I expected the bar owners to let him throw sweets at the corner of the room. And yes, I had that idea because of Taskmaster
I wonder if, as one of the people that comes up with the tasks, Adam was too concerned with doing things according to the "spirit" of the task instead of trying to find a workaround.
Do you think the coin flip challenge was inspired by the luck trail task in S16 uk?
That would've taken some time to find the supplies and set up which means that if he still failed despite that, the veto period would've prevented him from taking the bus.
Choosing locations that make it unlikely you need to rely on Deutsche Bahn. Smart.
