FINALLY! Bird's Nest Stadium!! And a swimming "Olympic" challenge!! :hearts:

But poor Jen....   :'(

karma karma karma for her

agreed - really not feeling pity for her here

If someone has a fear of the water/swimming... why would one do a swimming challenge... (Do we see a blind uturn happening?)

It could be a miscellaneous task.

Unlikely, but one can always hope.

Please don't came last Kisha and Jen

There is still one more U-Turn and one Fast Forward on the race. So I guess we can expect one this leg and one on the next.

ps. There was only one u-turn last season (maybe we didn't see other one?).

There's probably one more U-Turn.  But I think the unaired Fast-Forward was the only one.

The second u-turn was in Moscow ... After the marching/serving soup task there was a u-turn.

redskevin88,

I think you got the Season wrong. In this season, teams didn't go into Moscow. I think you got it mixed up with the last Season (Season 13) where there was the detour of Marching or serving the soup.
The Amazing Race TV Stars- Marc and Rovilson (Currently 1st)
Victor\'s Amazing Race- Mooyou and Jerseydude (Currently 5th)
RFF Amazing Race Season 2- Redskevin88 & Jerseydude (Eliminated 4th)
Mooyou\'s Amazing Race- Tammy and Victor (Finished 2nd Place )

TPTB are not showing the water detour in the preview with K/J in the correct order.

Jen shown with goggles and life vest.
Jen shown swimming with neither item.
Jen and Kisha are talking in corridor without life vest.
Jen and Kisha are doing the detour, both wearing life vests.

I think K/J started the task and Jen freaked.  They discuss water phobia and then life vest were furnished and task completed.  No big deal and no major delay.  K/J are alone.  It seems with Jen's water phobia they would have done the other task.  Wonder why they didn't.

It appears task is like a relay where 1 member has to get to the other side of pool and back however they can while in the water and then the 2nd member jumps or dives in to do the same thing.  Jen probably dog paddled for her 2 lengths of the pool.

Edited to fix format mess up.

Initially I agreed with you makz3d.  With the above pictures showing Kisha & Jen on diving boards, I think the sequence is as follows: 

Swimming with vests
Hallway breakdown
Diving boards

In the hallway pictures, it looks like the girls have marks on their foreheads corresponding to wearing caps and goggles.  Going off the diving board would mean deep water where one can not stand/touch the bottom. This would be very stressful.

I went and ordered an idea of the order they come in... Just from the facial experissions...


Cara and Jamie finally get 1st..


Margie and Luke 2nd


Tammy and Victor 3rd


Kisha/Jen 4th and saved by the Non-elimination. You can tell by the hug that they are relieved..

The also possible explantion is that Phil says "You are team #1, how ever the race is still going on. Here is your next clue.."

Although I could be wrong..

I am going out on a limb and speculating that the logical team to be affected by fear is Kisha/Jen. However, since the weekly tips from World Race Productions are always always misdirection, I believe that it will NOT be them and it will be one of the other 3 teams. I have no idea which one.

If you look really carefully at the background (especially for T/V), you can disticntly see a wall of some description, meaning they are inside.

This building for the swimming complex?

Note the 6 notches on the top...

 ;D  you may have had it the first time, walkingpneumonia....  from what I read, this sports complex has a regular swimming pool, a synchronized swimming pool, and a diving pool.  This building may house a few of those venues.  ;)

best I could do enhancing the preview, and it does look like some sort of theatre/ concert hall (given the "sloped" seating???)  BVM sure like using theatres for the pitstops.... I guess he's saving the Birdsnest stadium for the following weeks pitstop.

That's episode four, actually.  Episode five saw them in the balcony, not on the stage.

what if the swimming task is a detour option? and the other one is the diving task?

both would be difficult for jen to do, and that is why we see her break down in that hallway

maybe they have to do a different type of dive off of each one, and they have to be synchronized in order to move to the next diving board

what do you guys think?  :duno:
