We'll then create a HUGE international Dance craze video!
Asia - Ian Potter - TBD

69. Yoga Yarn
We're going to learn some genuine Yoga techniques and then create some bizarre ones of our own. We're then going to blag a Yoga "class" on the beach. Convincing the "students" that we are genuine teachers, that your "new" disciplines are revolutionary and are HUGE in America, UK, Russia and Africa.
Goa - Sheila Doig - DONE
70. Market Traders
We've to somehow convince a local market trader to let us run his/her stall for the day. Using the trade secrets we've learned from "Eastenders" we must make more trade than the owner would in a normal day or we pay him the difference!

China - Alex Freimanis - TBD
72. Without My Pants

73. Gaijin Games
While in Japan we must get ourselves on a Japanese Game Show. Whether we understand the rules or not, we must not lose!
Japan - Rachael Biebling - TBD
74. Hurricane Hugging
Putting ourselves in the middle of a real storm (the bigger the better), we'll show what it's like to live through Mother Nature's unpredictable temper! Most likely, the audio on this video will only be heard by dogs. Not because of the wind or frightening forces of nature on the camera mics – but more so because we'll be screaming at a higher octave than an 11 year old girl at a Take That concert!
Asia - Xui Ming - Stephen Hutchison - TBD
75. (Angkor) Wat is a Slinky?
After carrying one for months over the west-side of Asia, we'll finally leave our Slinky in Cambodia. Only after letting it rip down the steps of the highest temple there! Yee haa!
