<< A man with 2 red canisters? something ?

Most likely a safety crew with fire extinguishers; a requirement almost everywhere planes/helicopters take off and land.

Could it be that after completing the helicopter task the teams end up at Campo de Marte airfield and sign up for charter flight the next morning to who knows where?  Marte services business type planes and charters.  Tyler's reaction also most seems to reflect his finishing something and is happy about the result = first flight out?

Since the teams went to Iguaccu Falls in TAR2, perhaps they are going to Puerto Alegre or some other city in the south of Brazil.

I searched for Sao Paulo tuk tuk but don't see anything. Do you see anything? I thought tuk tuk are used in Asia only?

Sorry, Banzai. I didn't mean to state definitely that it was a tuktuk, just that it had an odd outline and looked a little worn. You make sharp, clear videos  :tup:; are you able to read any of the other business signs?

I just found out in Photoshop, we have to do this command:
Filter > Video > De-Interlace
so I don't know how to record video.

motorcycle

helipad

now we can see the faces of Fran/Barry

we can see the word "police" on the car

bridge is clearer

Hey guys, here is the "Rosetta Stone" for identifying helipads in Sao Paulo.  It lists the buildings with helipads,
AND gives their Longitude & Latitude coordinates.  Great for Google Earth identification.   :jumpy:

http://www.oheliponto.com.br/oheliponto/include/helipontos_INC.asp

...also gives their tonnage limits, i.e. "4", "3", etc...

ETA: Did a quick check on Caesars Hotel Helipad and Google Earth is +12" W off and +20" S off.  Oh well.  ???

Those two guys on the helipad shown above could be local hired help.  They are dressed similar to the guy holding Monica's hand when she got off the chopper.  My guess is that their job is to go take the racers by the hand to safety off of the pad.

The motorcycle scene just screams South-East Asia to me. Just a gut feeling.

Using the link Boingo posted, the second helipad seems to be called Atrium V. I can't find it on Emporis though, so there's no photographic evidence to back it up. Google Earth and the information on the site differ by roughly 3 seconds of latitude or longtitude, so I'm not 100% on this.

There's an address for Atrium V here, but I don't understand the wording: it could be  on Ramos street or Olimpia street.

Roughly translated:  Ed. = Edificio = Building
                            Rua = Street
                            Andar = Floor
                            Vila Olimpia = Name of a district in Sao Paulo

so the address is:

                            Atrium V Building
                            2nd Floor
                            195 Federico Ramos Street
                            Vila Olimpia
                            Sao Paulo, Brazil

I'm guessing Helipad #2 (Monica and Joseph) is the building with the greenish-looking top, directly to the right of Cesar Park in the photograph. The helipad is actually blue, but it's surrounded by the greenish roof.

Number 2 looks new. The one in the middle is probably the croc park mentioned way back.

The boat looks like it might be a Rottnest ferry. Home page

The cars? on the way to Denver airport (just guessing).
