Burnie & Ashely (S28) alongside Kelsey & Joey (S27) are the only two teams to have 5 consecutive second place finishes :gaah:
Brodie & Kurt (S28) now holds the record for having the highest average placing for 5th placers (2.6), previously held by Abbie & Ryan (S21) (Similarly both are eliminated by u-turn plan of other teams)

Joey & Meaghan also eliminated by u-turn plan of other teams
scruffs:
Any team who survived the Twinnie U-turn strategy?

To be more specific:
Both Abbie & Ryan and Brodie & Kurt are eliminated in 5th by the Twinnie U-turn Strategy (TUS, or TUTS ??? ). They have been the only known victims in the US version, and both did not survive the TUS.
Tbh, the TUS is too deadly of a move for someone to survive in. It's worse than being single U-turned. :funny:
G.B.:
I had always figured that the move was prohibited after Season 21...

Why is it worse? I think it has the same effect right with a single U-turn??
^ Looks like it's still is allowed based on what happened to B&K. There's no reason to prohibit it, I guess? It's just a brutal way to use the W-turn.
