0:00:03 > 0:00:05# ..amazing! #
0:00:07 > 0:00:09Hello and welcome to Officially Amazing -
0:00:09 > 0:00:11The Best Of The Bunker.
0:00:11 > 0:00:16Coming up, I get involved in a mind and body bending record attempt.
0:00:17 > 0:00:22But first, the tensest record the bunker has ever seen in...
0:00:26 > 0:00:28Today's record is...
0:00:31 > 0:00:33Here are the rules.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36Standard-sized dominoes must be stood one at a time
0:00:36 > 0:00:38using one hand only.
0:00:38 > 0:00:43Dominoes must be placed within a designated A3-sized area.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Once the minute is up, the competitors
0:00:45 > 0:00:47must topple the dominoes.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50And any domino still standing will not count.
0:00:50 > 0:00:56For the record, our idols need to topple a colossal 75 dominoes.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59My dinky domino-ist goes first.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Three, two, one - go!
0:01:04 > 0:01:05And he's off.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11This is bombastic balancing.
0:01:13 > 0:01:18And he has the rock-steady hand of a champion domino stacker.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Ray has nerves of steel-coated steel.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23He's flying here.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29And he's nailed the tricky second bend too.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34Perfect precision with every domin...
0:01:34 > 0:01:35No!
0:01:37 > 0:01:42One minute misplacement was all it took for total wipe-out.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44None of those dominoes will count.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46But he's still got time.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Three, two, one - stop!
0:01:49 > 0:01:50Ray builds a consolation row,
0:01:50 > 0:01:54but that tiny topple will not bring glory.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58Thankfully for Ray, attempt two goes a lot better -
0:01:58 > 0:02:00no mistakes and a lengthy line.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Five, four, three,
0:02:03 > 0:02:06two, one - stop.
0:02:06 > 0:02:07- Yes!- Topple.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Now, the moment of truth.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Boom!
0:02:14 > 0:02:17A titanic tumble from Ray.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Can Cherry do better?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Mr Cherry, are you ready?
0:02:21 > 0:02:23- Magic hand.- Magic hand.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Is a magic electro hand within the rules?
0:02:33 > 0:02:38Yep, scientists have proved it has no domino-toppling powers.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Three, two, one -
0:02:42 > 0:02:44go!
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Cherry's electro hand is quivering with nerves.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54That is going to be a real danger
0:02:54 > 0:02:56in such a precarious record.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Even the dominoes are shaking.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03But Domino Cam displays the face of a man who's determined to succeed.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08So long as he doesn't blow his dominoes over.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Five, four, three,
0:03:11 > 0:03:14two, one - stop!
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Topple.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22Oh!
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Agonising! Cherry's topple was unstoppable
0:03:26 > 0:03:28until it stopped three dominoes from the end.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31They won't count.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33But the champion gathers himself
0:03:33 > 0:03:37and his second attempt also goes a lot better.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38Stop!
0:03:38 > 0:03:40- Topple.- This is huge,
0:03:40 > 0:03:43but will it topple?
0:03:46 > 0:03:48CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:50 > 0:03:52A dazzling domino display.
0:03:52 > 0:03:57But if there is one man born to achieve world domino-tion...
0:03:57 > 0:03:59- Go!- ..it's the Sizz-Master.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02Steve's lining them up the wrong way.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05It's a tactical master plan.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Was that part of the plan?
0:04:08 > 0:04:11No. But The Sizzler will not be beaten.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14He's right back up again, building another epic...
0:04:14 > 0:04:15Argh!
0:04:15 > 0:04:18He's going for pace over precision.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20It's leaving his dominoes wobbly
0:04:20 > 0:04:22and that equals disaster.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25But like a tenacious tornado
0:04:25 > 0:04:27who stacks dominoes,
0:04:27 > 0:04:29he just keeps on going.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31And now he's building a double track.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35This one domino will topple two chains.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Steve has turned disaster into...
0:04:40 > 0:04:42A catastrophe!
0:04:42 > 0:04:46A third collapse and no time to recover.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Three, two, one - stop.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Topple.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Steve's heading for last place.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58One more attempt and it needs to be big.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00And it is.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Sizzler again gambles on creating a split in his domino line,
0:05:04 > 0:05:06and this time...
0:05:06 > 0:05:10Three, two, one - stop.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12- If this works, Steve... Come on!- Topple.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Oh!
0:05:17 > 0:05:18Yes!
0:05:18 > 0:05:21We've seen three titanic topples,
0:05:21 > 0:05:24but who demolished the most dominoes?
0:05:24 > 0:05:27And did anyone get near that record of 75?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30We need an official adjudication.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Shantha, do we have a record?
0:05:34 > 0:05:35No.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37THEY GROAN
0:05:37 > 0:05:41But there's still the all-important competitive point to play for.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Shantha, who's got it?
0:05:43 > 0:05:48I can reveal that there were just two dominoes
0:05:48 > 0:05:50between third and first place.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Never have we ever been so close.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55So, in third place,
0:05:55 > 0:05:57with a total of 37...
0:05:59 > 0:06:00..is Mr Cherry.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06This could blow the competition wide open!
0:06:06 > 0:06:08And in first place...
0:06:08 > 0:06:11..with a total of 39,
0:06:11 > 0:06:15so winning by just one domino is...
0:06:18 > 0:06:20..Steve.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Whoo! Hey!
0:06:22 > 0:06:23Sizzler!
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Domi-yes! Not domi-no, domi-yes!
0:06:32 > 0:06:33A hard-fought victory
0:06:33 > 0:06:34for The Sizzler
0:06:34 > 0:06:36puts him joint with Cherry
0:06:36 > 0:06:37at the top of the leaderboard
0:06:37 > 0:06:40with only two events left.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41Our heroes will be back later on,
0:06:41 > 0:06:44but first, time for me to limber up.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49I've been perfecting my contortion skills
0:06:49 > 0:06:51for the return of our next guest.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Argh!
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Ugh!
0:06:55 > 0:06:57No need to get yourself into a twist -
0:06:57 > 0:06:58all it takes is a bit of practice.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02And it's amazing what you can achieve!
0:07:02 > 0:07:03Oh, dear.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09Today, we welcome back our favourite elasticated enigma -
0:07:09 > 0:07:12contortionist Claudia Hughes.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14We first met Claudia in series five,
0:07:14 > 0:07:17when she came within two seconds of the record for...
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- 29.47.- Aw!
0:07:26 > 0:07:30And today, this ludicrously limber lady is back
0:07:30 > 0:07:33and determined to crack the record.
0:07:33 > 0:07:34Here are the rules.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Claudia must place each egg fully in each cup.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40She can use her feet only.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43And if she gets six eggs in cups
0:07:43 > 0:07:45within 27.42 seconds,
0:07:45 > 0:07:46it's a world record.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Claudia, welcome back to Officially Amazing.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- Why, thank you. - Thanks for being so flexible.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Just a minute, getting comfy.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57How's training been going?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Have you been breaking the record?
0:07:59 > 0:08:03Yeah, very, very close. Not quite, not quite.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Despite that revelation,
0:08:05 > 0:08:08a massive 88% of the bunker crew
0:08:08 > 0:08:11think Claudia will get the record this time.
0:08:11 > 0:08:12What do you think?
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Go.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Nice. That's what we want to see.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Yes.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23And that's two perfectly placed eggs.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25What talented tootsies!
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Yes, it's a little plop and roll.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33Oh, no - there's trouble on the fourth.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35It's all too tight for her toes.
0:08:35 > 0:08:36And a tiny nudge has sent
0:08:36 > 0:08:39egg number six off on a roll.
0:08:44 > 0:08:45That's five in,
0:08:45 > 0:08:47but she's off on an egg hunt
0:08:47 > 0:08:48for the final one.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Yes! Impeccable egg work.
0:08:53 > 0:08:58Could Claudia have done it in under 27.42 seconds?
0:08:58 > 0:09:01It's a time of 30.96 seconds.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Oh!
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Just three and a half seconds away from the record.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Can Claudia conquer her eggy Everest
0:09:09 > 0:09:11on the next attempt?
0:09:11 > 0:09:12Go.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15This time, she's placed the cups further apart,
0:09:15 > 0:09:19so there's less chance of her feet disturbing the other eggs.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Could this revolutionary tactic help her dip below
0:09:25 > 0:09:28that magical 27-second mark?
0:09:28 > 0:09:32This looks fast, but she can't afford any mistakes.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36Ooh. They're all in!
0:09:36 > 0:09:38You see, that again felt fast to me.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40- Yeah.- I think the spacing definitely helped.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- That definitely helped. - That one egg,
0:09:43 > 0:09:45just got caught on a flailing toe
0:09:45 > 0:09:47- and trickled away, didn't it? - I know.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- Will it have affected the record attempt?- That might have cost me.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52Mark?
0:09:53 > 0:09:56- That was your fastest attempt.- OK.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57It was a time of 20...
0:09:59 > 0:10:02..5.45! It's a brand-new Guinness World Records title!
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Oh, yes! Oh, yes!
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Claudia never gave up
0:10:07 > 0:10:09and finally has a world record to prove it.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Eggs-traordinary scenes!
0:10:12 > 0:10:16Now meet Kristoffer, one of our best predictors
0:10:16 > 0:10:17in the bunker today
0:10:17 > 0:10:19and the man charged with deciding
0:10:19 > 0:10:21who will attempt the record for...
0:10:24 > 0:10:27The bunker is in a Christmassy mood,
0:10:27 > 0:10:31even when Kristoffer puts Cherry into the gunge tank of doom.
0:10:31 > 0:10:36Oh! Kristoffer!
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Oh!
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Kristoffer!
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Let him go, Kristoffer, let him go.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Ray and Steve then embark upon their cracker crusade.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50It's quick, but is it quicker than the 20-seconds target?
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Today, you managed...
0:10:55 > 0:10:58..16.26 seconds.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Ding dong, merrily we end on a high,
0:11:02 > 0:11:06as they break the record and save Cherry from a gunging.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08See you next time!
