Josie has an allergy to iodine, which essentially means he can't go into salt water.

Wow, I have gotta say that Lee & Tal are the worst Jenga players I have ever seen. You don't take an edge piece out after the middle piece is already gone! That's basic physics!

Thanks! I thought it was something like that.

Yeah, I couldn't believe they did that. Ben & Ori were staring at them when it happened probably thinking "please tell me she is actually doing this". But the thing is, it happened more than once! Naomi & Chen did it too!

Based on older episodes I can sort of answer this! Censoring has come up a few times in Season 3. The English cursing isn't, but a few times there's been a word in the subtitles that's mostly *** and a beeping. Of course I don't know what they said, so I couldn't tell you if racers don't cuss anymore or if it's just not censored.

G.B.:
Well, I'm really sad to see these two eliminated. They were so much fun to watch.

Maanca:
So thrilled to see them going to a second African country next leg (Zanzibar!), the US never does this anymore.

Yeah I don't really count TAR27 Zambia/Zimbabwe since it was 2 legs in the same immediate vicinity :P

G.B.:
Leg 7, part 1:

>Fly from Walvis Bay to Zanzibar (Yeah, no stop in Dar es Salaam)
  Teams provided vehicles with drivers for this leg.
>Seaweed Centre
  Work together to harvest the seaweed from 25 seaweed lines, making sure to replace the stakes at the ends of the lines in the proper spot.
  U-Turn Vote
>Sunset Bay Resort
  DETOUR
     Barmen: Copy of the drink-pouring task from TAR24 (and many other international versions). Differing from other versions of this task, however, is that teams are given no instructions. They can fill up the seven glasses any way they want to, so long as there is no mixing and minimal spillage.
    Waiter: One team member carries two serving trays with tropical drinks and fruit, standing up on the end of a paddleboard while their partner paddles them out to a boat with customers.
  U-TURN - Yael & Yosiel are U-Turned in a 3-2-1-1-1 vote. They finish their second task ahead of two of the teams who U-Turn them.
   Teams then take a mandatory break from the race (again...)
>Kichanga Lodge
  Teams become models and follow the instructions of a photographer to take beachside pictures. At the end, a snake is brought in to join them in the pictures. (a BIG snake). They have to keep smiling and posing in spite of the snake.
    Alex has a phobia, but Josie and Adriano are just as skittish. Ori is afraid the snake will bite his nipples.
>British School of Zanzibar
  ...to be continued

Ugh...These 'take a mandatory break' tasks are fine, but why do they always happen for two legs in a row??

Interestingly enough, not a single person says "Tanzania" in the entire episode, referring to Zanzibar as if it's its own country.
