Amazing race australia headshave
Transcript
00:00 Who is?
00:02 What?
00:04 To win this fast forward, those team members must have their heads completely shaved.
00:08 Buddhist monks and nuns traditionally shave their heads as a sign they are no longer concerned with their outward appearance, but solely with their spiritual growth.
00:18 The first team that manages to brave the clippers and complete this challenge can skip all tasks and head directly to the pit stop.
00:27 Baby, we're doing it! I'm doing it!
00:30 My wife is going to shave her head!
00:32 There's a big knot already!
00:34 Zoe just got mud in her hair yesterday.
00:36 We did the mud challenge and her hair...
00:40 I love my hair. I mean, I'm the kind of girl who brought my hair straightener on the Amazing Race.
00:46 I have extensions. You see? You see?
00:53 Oh my goodness, I can't believe I'm in my hair.
00:55 Oh my gosh. You rock, Zoe! You rock!
01:02 Oh my goodness, I can't believe I'm seeing this.
01:04 Oh my gosh. You rock, Zoe! You rock!
01:09 Oh my gosh.
01:11 This is courageous, the things I'm doing! Oh my goodness!
01:15 I thought, you know what? It's hair. It will grow back.
01:18 Bring it!
01:19 We're here to experience everything and if this is part of the journey, let's do it.
01:25 It's all about inner beauty, baby.
01:27 Inner. You look hot!
01:29 Do I?
01:31 Yeah.
01:32 Thanks for the support, man! Thanks for the support!
01:35 It looks good. We're going to buy some headbands, man.
01:37 We can dump your hair straightener.
01:39 Oh yeah, let's do it!
01:41 Bring it, baby, bring it.
01:42 Two kilograms down.
01:43 Two kilograms up.
01:45 You know what, baby? Hair will grow back.
01:47 Oh baby, those hair extensions really screwed your head.
01:53 Let me see that. Now I'm going to look tough, baby.
01:56 Oh, get it together now, Zoe.
01:57 I don't want to see it. No, no, no. I don't want to see it.
02:00 It looks okay.
02:03 Oh.
02:06 Oh, it's finished.
02:07 Thank you.
02:08 Thank you.
02:09 Ah!
02:13 Okay.
02:14 It takes a lot of courage, especially I think for girls and women to shave their heads.
02:18 I don't know, I thought I may have felt more attached to my hair.
02:22 But I'll do whatever I need to do for us to get a haircut.
02:26 Do you feel spiritual, Zoe?
02:28 I feel like cleansed and renewed.
02:30 Thank you very much.
02:31 Woo!
02:32 Make your way to the nearest pit stop!
02:34 It was worth that pit stop, yeah!
02:36 I'm at a cultural village in Kooliang.
02:39 The Amar Cultural Village in Nakao celebrates the legend of the goddess Amar.
02:44 This is the third pit stop in our race.
02:46 The last team to arrive here will be eliminated.
02:50 Back me, back me.
02:52 I have been growing my hair for like maybe eight, nine years.
02:57 I try to grow it long.
02:59 I had hair extensions put in to get length because I love long hair.
03:03 Are you okay?
03:04 Yeah.
03:05 Are you sure?
03:06 It'll grow back.
03:07 I'm going to miss my beautiful hair.
03:09 I'm going to take ages to grow back again.
03:11 Okay, hello.
