The Waterslide of Death
Monday, October 26, 2009 at 09:13am by freakgirl
I watched TAR last night but I didn’t pay enough attention to give you a proper recap. Sorry.
I am afraid of heights — terrified, just like Mika. However, if my partner had tried to physically force me down that slide like Canaan did? He’d have gone down in pieces.
Order of Finish
- Meghan & Cheyne
- Maria & Tiffany
- Sam & Dan
- Brian & Ericka
- Gary & Matt
- Flight Time & Big Easy
- Mika & Canaan (ELIMINATED)

You can color that relationship DUN. When there was that talk of forgiveness on the exit interview, I don’t think the two saw eye to eye on who was forging whom.
I don’t think having the Globetrotters music playing whenver FT & BE are doing something amusing will ever get old.

Fear of heights/water aside, I thought she was acting like a three year old. Which doesn’t excuse his behavior either. (I was a little surprised the slide attendant didn’t step in when Canaan was almost forcing her down it.) Just glad they’re both gone and the Globetrotters are still in.
I actually don’t mind any of the teams remaining, although I found Ericka a little obnoxious last night. I’m not sure if she contributed anything to that entire leg.

I know it’s a phobia, and by definition illogical, but it was a WATER SLIDE.
He didn’t help, though. At a certain point, it seemed to turn into a power struggle between them.

He didn’t help, no. He tried to FORCE her down that slide. That is fucking crazy! And yeah, once he did that, there was no way she was going anywhere.

I can’t say that I wouldn’t try to force my partner down the slide if I knew that was going to kill our chances of a million dollars. I’d give it a shot, anyway. He can hate me while he rolls around in the MILLION DOLLARS.

I’m just curious how she thought she was ever possibly going to win if she couldn’t even think about going somewhere high without crying. She nearly came undone thinking about the world’s highest building challenge. Has there ever been a season that they didn’t have to do something high up? I am scared of heights, but it was just a waterslide! The easiest possible height related challenge!
