still, it seems that the amazing race team are putting more and more "contestant taking off clothes" task in the race.

I wonder if there's a reason?

I'd laugh though if this is the first amazing race episode that excites people in a different way

At the Roadblock (?), teams recite a quote from a famous Danish storyteller Hans Christian Andersen

TO MOVE, TO BREATH, TO FLY, TO FLOAT, TO GAIN ALL WHILE YOU GIVE, TO ROAM THE ROADS OF LANDS REMOTE: TO TRAVEL IS TO LIVE." - H. C. ANDERSEN

And the guy in top hat might be our next Don Giovanni :lol:



Good job, Cocoa!! :jumpy:

And yay for legoland!! And some SELF-DRIVING!! Thanks Chateau!!

Actually no. I would have hope for Nat and Kat or Brooke and Claire to strip anyday. :lol:

Every season there's more or less a task contestant has to strip, be it swimming, running naked in winter times or whatsoever. If their main ideal is to let people strip, they would have called everyone to strip for the water roadblock in Phuket leg 2, the water detour in Phuket leg 1, the malawi detour last leg... so many instances and chances for them to "strip". :lol:

RB in Denmark (recite Hans Christian Andersen)

Detour in Brussels, Belgium (Bodybuilding OR ???)

it seems a long way from Copenhagen to Billund, do you think the teams will drive?  :duno:

Copenhagen --> Billund --> Brussels

do you think the teams will fly from Billund to Brussels?


Legoland is in Denmark as well. That seems like a RI to me because the RB is also in Denmark. It can't be one side of the Detour if the Detour is in Brussels.

It seems like teams could fly because Legoland is right beside the airport.

Is this the leg with the pitstop at the Atomium or is that the next one?

I would guess that it is in Odense. HCA was born there and it is on the way to Billund.

It doesn't look like a really proper theatre though. Maybe a smaller place?

They could take a train to Billund. I once did this route myself & it's not too far & the trains were very convenient.

Great find caper!  :tup:

I just spent an hour NOT finding a match.  I had figured it was part of an old private residence, but didn't think about the royal residences!  :groan:

It's a person guys. The Muscles from Belguim is Jean Claude van Damme

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Claude_Van_Damme

A guess would be somewhere in the town of Berchem-Sainte Agathe, which is his hometown

They are assembling/doing something in the teacups, look at the table. Perhaps Lego? :lol:

Agree! It seems like they have to assemble something with Lego before the teacups stop / stay in the teacups until finish~

I think it was the Legos here that made me look at Legoland  vs all the other amusement parks in GE   :lol:

The muscle location looks more like a palace/castle/theatre type place.  It doesn't look like your typical gym or pose down location.  There is a beautiful tapestry and big ornate white pillars.

Could this be 1/2 of the detour and then the Legoland puzzle is the other one and Jeremy and Sandy had to give up on the Legos?

So you guys are saying, their going from the pitstop to Billund, where they do that teacup challenge, then go somewhere else in Denmark and do the roadblock, and then go to Belgium to do the Detour?

From the pitstop they are going to the theater for the RB. The theater is in Copenhagen, look at Caper's post, it's in Christianborg Palace. Then they go to Legoland which is near Billund (identified by Chateau) and then they go to Belgium for the muscle show (presumably the detour).
