The Amazing Raceコミュの10 Most Memorable Moments

TVガイドに"10 Most Memorable Moments"が挙げられていました。
懐かしいシーン、あるでしょうか？

1. Gutsiest Performance(Season 5)
Little person Charla racing with a 55-pounds hunk of meat
on her back in Season 5.
"She was the smallest person with the biggest heart."
says Race host Phil Keoghan.
"If you look at that, everybody was saying
she couldn't do it, and she's probably heard that all her life.
But she knew she could do that challenge and she did."

2. Dumbest mistake
Four of eight teams putting regular gas into their
diesel cars in Portugal in Season 3.
By ignoring all the signs calling for diesel,
the teams proved Keoghan's point that racers
"stop thinking about basic things when they rush."

3. Most disgusting meal
The live octpus entree in South Korea during Season 4.
As the main course wiggled, contestants had to swallow it.
Keoghan reminded the teams that "for the locals,
it's a delicacy. It's no diffrent than us loving a hamburger."
Except that hamburgers don't walk off your plate.

4. Oddest mode of transportation
The bubble-like "zorbs" in Season 5,
which teams used to travel down a hill in New Zealand.
"I did the guinea pig test of them," says Keoghan.
"It was the closest thing to what you imagine
floating on a cloud would feel like."

5. Best line of dialogue
Kevin yelling, "Swing, you fat bastard, swing!" to
Drew as his teammate hung on a zip line over a
gorge near Victoria Falls, in Season 1.
"Watching him hang seemed so funny to me," says Kevin.
"People still yell that phrase to us.
It's become a term of endearment."

6. Most dramatic sacrifice
Joyce getting her head shaved in India in Season 7.
"As the hair came off, an internal transformation
happened," she says. " I felt liberated. Later we learned
that when a woman shaves her head, it's good karma.
Maybe that was the key to our success."
They won the race.

7. Most frustrating Challenge
Searching for a clue in a giant bale of hay in a
Swedish feild during Season 6.
The challenge was too much for sisters Lena and Kristy,
who struggled so long to find the clue that Keoghan had to
come to the hay field to eliminate them.
"If Phil hadn't shown up, we might still be out there," Lena says.

8. Sneakiest maneuver
Rob taking the four-hour penalty to avoid eating
four pounds of icky-looking meat in Season 7.
By convincing two other teams to join him,
he saved his stomach and his place in the race.
Recalls Keoghan: "what I loved is he used [his brain] to
manipulate the situation."

9. Saddest Moment
Watching the faces of Race's youngest competitors,
like Carissa, 9, when their families were eliminated this season.
"You're telling a kid he's lost, and he thinks he's not
good enough," says Keoghan.

10. Best side trip
Danny and Oswald going on a Hong Kong shopping spree
during Season 2.
Even though the other teams stressed about getting to
the airport, these friends followed their strategy of
asking a travel agency to book their flight,
leaving them with enough time to shop for cologne.

　今シーズンのCarissaちゃんもランク入りしましたねぇ。
Joyceの剃髪シーンも泣けました。
ホントは10個に絞る事が出来ないくらい、もっと色々な
シーンもあるのだろうなぁ。
　そういえば、そのJoyceさん、
1月16日 Style Networkで放送される「How Do I Look?」で
Makeoverするそうです。
今後は女優業にもチャレンジするとか。
