TAR 18 Ep 8 "I Cannot Deal with your Psycho Behavior" (Austria)
Prophet:
That's what I was just about to say mswood. Why switch if it is only going to take about ten more minutes to get done?
I think they would have to eat a whole second plate, nobody wants to do that.

But you are assuming they CAN finish the meal. What if during that first 12 minutes they realize there is no way they can finish the food task period. The food they are eating is pretty heavy and even for myself, I wouldn't be able to finish off that entire meal period.....I may be able to do it in 24-36 minutes but I'd more than likely barf. lol so maybe the team desides to jump off at the 12 minute mark and continue on because they know they can't finish it. Or maybe they do go another revolution and they barf on the second revolution and are given a new plate. By that point they know they aren't going to finish so might as well jump out at 24 minutes and go to the other task.

Interesting theory and totally possible. However I'm still inclined to think that they have to finish it all in 12 minutes, or else they get a new plate. In the promo, Gary says, "We've got a lot of food to eat in 12 minutes," or something like that. Kinda implies that they really have to eat the food in 12 minutes. If it were just a matter of finishing it at your own pace, he'd probably just say, "We've got a lot of food to eat."
DrRox:
There are two people, posting in this thread, that have ridden that ferris wheel............and they both say it takes 25-30 minutes to make one revolution...........when Gary says that they have 12 minutes........they are WAY up in the air..........or I am the only one that notices that little fact?
