Challenge 1, testing logic, entails doing a series of mathematical calculations in quick succession. Challenge 2, testing linguistic, requires the contestants to create a haiku on a theme using only a list of ninety-nine given words. Challenge 3, testing music, entails identifying which instruments are dropped and in which order when an eight piece combo tune is played a second time. Challenge 4, testing social, requires the contestants to give a 30 second pitch to sell a combination vacuum cleaner/head massager to a group of potential customers. And challenge 5, testing both physical and visual and worth double the points, is a race to bounce a ball on top of a drum, using the drum to maneuver the ball over and under obstacles, with an additional bonus for each ball bounced into a basket. The two contestants with the highest score move to the mega-challenge, a race testing all six concepts in six individual puzzles. Written by Huggo See less
