Three fit-looking all-female teams, an young asian team, deaf contestant? SIGN ME UP!
We have had the teams for ages, but SO nice to see their faces! And my favorite day is when we get to add names to their faces!  So  to any lurking contestants, we are excited for you!!  Here is more on the trekking site that does the Versasca Dam bungee, as well as some bungee videos... http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,17788.msg367578.html#msg367578

A different view of the tower area here. Good enough to call it, I think; futurecontestnat gets the credit.

I can't see the helicopters on the airfield very close, but they look like Sea Stallions. And the couple kissing look like they're wearing the gear that might normally be used by crewmen/passengers in a military transport, which is why I'm guessing that the Sea Stallions are the entry vehicles. Some smaller photos below (and I'm not sure about the horses).

I cant tell if this is a team of "short men" or it is a "short couple." Michael, we may have two "short men" teams. This team (in camos???) is pretty dang short.   LOL, they really are short, the men I mean, my babies in green tower over them. AND PUDDIN, I SEE NO MIDGETS! HINT HINT.

Ms Peach,
The Sea Stallions are helicopters used by US Navy/Marines. The girls on the horses appear to me to be wearing tank tops....so doubt it is Siberia.

It almost seems like TPTB cast this race to thwart the spoilers (us).
Two couples with blonde haired females and one FF team blonde. All the same shade of blonde.
Two short men teams.
Two tall women teams.
One of the shorter alpha male teams, the ones next to the tall redheads, appear to me, to be hispanic. Did the "Munoz" connection get ruled out?

No the Munoz brothers? have not been ruled out, we just don't have a photo of them that I know of, until maybe now?

Cool you guys! We can see the faces, but why is there still no contestants article? Didn't the contestants come before the previews last season? The teams look more competitive looking this time. Let's hope they don't make as many mistakes as last season! I'm excited!!

The building and the statue match the picture here of piazza Sant' Antonio, which matches the SwissMiss spoiler back on page 1. Map here. It looks like they're holding a number; following-day departures, maybe?

Dang I missed this! But I did see the new movie release Defiance. And I recognized that many of its scenes were filmed here. Kynt & Vyxsin will be pleased!

Or maybe Interlaken lakes?  Peach, I would say that the lake being the Thuner See or Brienzer See on either side of Interlaken is probable. However, it could also be the Salzkammergut near Salzburg.
