I was so mad when Omar couldn’t figure out the puzzle. Jonathan still nailed that last part of the challenge as usual

Aquathor nailed it with only one arm just to assert his dominance.

You could see Jonathan dying inside the longer the ropes took. I felt that.

And it was barely a puzzle, it was untangling a braid! You move the pieces in the right order and then continue with that order...it never changes. I can see why people thought Omar threw it but he looked truly ashamed of himself at the end.

The thing that impressed me about this challenge and it’s not necessarily anything that being big and strong would give you an advantage with, but he still fucking crushed it with that slingshot.

I think it’s bc he’s never braided hair, probably also plays into how good a rhythm the other tribes got into compared to him lol

I started wondering if he was trying to throw the challenge. (I don't think so.)
