Some interesting (and some not so interesting) facts and records!
G.B.:
Bjørn, a contestant on TAR Norway 1, is the oldest contestant on the Race to participate in a skydive, at the age of 64.

30 seasons into the US version and I still don't think there's ever been a team that placed in the Top 3 every leg. Unless you count Kristi & Jen, which I don't. The 7th leg technically put them in a last-place tie with Jody.
That feat has been accomplished at least twice on foreign versions - Alon & Oren on Israel 2 (although they didn't make Top 3 during that elimination point that took out Gadi & Alona), and Rovilson & Marc from Asia 2.

Had they not swapped partners, they possibly could make it.

Does TAR 28 Leg 3 (Cartagena) hold the record for the shortest physical distance between the pit start and the pit stop for a given leg? According to google maps, Plaza de Boliviar and Baluarte de Santiago are only 300 meters apart and a 3 minute walk.

TAR Australia vs New Zealand's final leg is the only leg to cross the equator twice.
