Amazing Race - Cheating caught on tape! (Spoilers)

(1/4) > >>

Hoya Guru:
If you have the 11/25 show recorded, feel free to check this out if you don't believe it. During the show, the Twins chose to use the Fast Forward. Their task involved both of them eating 5 pickled herring. At the moment both twins were taking their first bite, the twin on the right's hair was in a bun on top of her head, and the twin on the left had her hair in some weird unkempt hairdo that was DEFINITELY not a bun. Keep in mind, this can be seen as they are both taking their first bite of fish. About 2 or 3 minutes later, they are shown eating their last bites of fish, and the twin with the unkempt hair suddenly has a nice neat bun on the top of her head, exactly like her sisters.

Now, I really doubt that she stopped eating long enough to fix her hair that way, especially since she had fish oil all over her hands. That leaves two explanations: One, the makeup artist from The Amazing Race came over and did her hair for her, WHILE she was eating her fish (very doubtful), or two, there was some serious shenanigans going on. Like, the show stopped the contest for some reason, long enough for the twin to either fix her own hair or have someone fix it for her. And don't forget, this contest was TIMED, and the twins barely finished eating the fish in time, the show's creators or someone in charge would have had to stop the timer for some reason, and while they were taking this break the girl had her hair fixed.

I can't think of any other explanation, other than there was something seriously fishy going on here (pun intended). If you have it recorded, check it out, I backed it up and watched it several times. If the twins win the million dollars, I think the other people in the race have the right to call the show's producers out on this one. Hoya Guru out!

GMR 602:
Pretty sure that this could be from two different attempts, and the editors just edited it to look like they got it in the first go....

They had an one hour lead on the chips and ran into them as they got off the bus...

Hoya Guru:
That's possible, but wouldn't they want to show how it was their second try, to make it more exciting for the viewer? And don't you think the girls would have had a lot more trouble eating it all the second time, and wouldn't they be complaining about that? Also, check the passengers on the bus, and the guy serving fish, wouldn't they be different if it were a second bus?

 :welcome2: to RFF Hoya Guru

They had to eat the earrings in seven minutes, before the bus returned to solid ground.  If they couldn't do it, the bus took them back to the Van Gogh Caffe for a ten minutes period, and then try again to complete the FF. 
So GMR 602 is correct in the presumption that the task was edited.

For the same reason they didn't show the whole 12 attemps of Mark doing the Bollywood RB last season:  time.  It's a one hour show.
