00:00Today we are gonna build the world's largest Lego tower.
00:03Here's how.
00:04This is Chris's foundation.
00:06And this is Chandler's platform.
00:07That's me.
00:08And whoever has the tallest tower after 12 hours
00:10gets $50,000.
00:12And you're probably wondering,
00:13how do they build these towers?
00:15Up to the clouds.
00:16We have heavy duty machinery.
00:17They can build these towers as tall as they want to.
00:20Also, your partner is Carl.
00:21So Chris, if you win the 50 grand,
00:23you have to split it with Carl.
00:25Yeah.
00:25Yeah!
00:26This is your partner.
00:27Now, if you accept Tyler,
00:28you have to split the prize with him.
00:29All right, get started.
00:30The time is counting down.
00:31And if we use up this entire pile,
00:34we have more than a truck.
00:35And this is just one of many trucks full of Legos.
00:38This is a lot of money.
00:39Hey Chandler.
00:40Hey, hush over there.
00:41Don't touch my money.
00:46We started with two people on each team.
00:48Now this team has four people
00:49and that team has four people.
00:50These towers are about to get big.
00:52Let's go.
00:56So far, your tower's about four feet and three inches.
01:01Pretty good.
01:03We'll get to nipple height soon.
01:04If you don't follow me on Twitter,
01:06here's the tweet.
01:07One day I found out that my nipples
01:08are exactly four feet and eight inches off the ground.
01:11You're welcome.
01:12Oh my gosh, they're over nipple height.
01:14Chris, their tower's five and a half feet tall.
01:16Good for them.
01:17If I was to end the challenge right now,
01:19they have a taller tower and they get 50 grand.
01:21Too bad you still need a video.
01:23I do.
01:24This is a bowling ball.
01:25Guys, stop building.
01:27Line up.
01:28Line up at all.
01:29No!
01:30Here's the bowling ball.
01:30Come right here.
01:31Bowl that bowling ball.
01:36Okay.
01:37I mean, it's not too brutal.
01:38Here's the difference.
01:39Chandler's tower has a wall protecting it.
01:41Let's see if it works.
01:42Here you go, Chris.
01:43Should I shock put it?
01:44Why is it out?
01:45He's doing the loop-de-loop.
01:46Oh, too soon.
01:48How does it feel, Chris?
01:50Oh, I fixed it.
01:51So as you guys can see, the wall actually worked.
01:53Good job!
01:54Yeah!
01:55If we keep doing this, we will get it.
01:57Are you building a bigger wall?
01:59No.
02:00Of course.
02:01Oh, we're not on the same page.
02:01Wait.
02:02The top of their tower is taller than me.
02:04Things are about to get interesting.
02:06All they did was just a little damage off the sides.
02:08We can rebuild this easy.
02:09We need to build on the sides
02:10because our goal is to build two towers
02:12and then connect it here for more structural support.
02:15This right here,
02:16sturdiest wall you've ever seen in your freaking life.
02:18You guys have 20 minutes to complete this mini challenge.
02:21The loser has to boot someone off for 30 minutes.
02:24Whoever's tower is the tallest
02:26by the end of 20 minutes wins.
02:28You guys have 20 minutes!
02:30He's grabbing a bunch of one-fers.
02:32So if you guys don't have the tallest tower,
02:33who are you getting rid of?
02:35Chandler's the captain.
02:36I'm not making that decision.
02:37All right, we're just building them two high,
02:40as big as we can go.
02:40And by two high, I mean four high.
02:42Math is hard.
02:43Only up from here, baby.
02:44So we're finally using the cranes.
02:46This is where it gets fun.
02:49We're just going to put this on top
02:50before the timer's over.
02:51So my plan is I'm going to go a little bit higher
02:53because I know Zach's a tall bean.
02:54That's why we got him instead of Weddell
02:56because Weddell sucks.
02:57Yeah, well, that's true.
03:02It's time for Armageddon.
03:05While we have this opportunity,
03:06we need to tear that wall down.
03:07We need to, yeah, long game.
03:08Three, two, one, fire!
03:15Throw a bomb up.
03:16That's so heavy.
03:18And the wall's held up and it's impenetrable.
03:21Wall, wall, wall, wall.
03:23It wasn't the wall,
03:24it's that it's impossible to throw a bowling ball.
03:26I didn't even make it that far.
03:28Three, two, one, fire!
03:39The only thing that was broke was the bowling ball.
03:43Back to work!
03:48Just toss it into the bucket, Ethan.
03:50Just toss it all in the bucket
03:51and then just start making lefty.
03:53Chris, have a bunch of ones build before you throw them.
03:56Oh!
03:57Holy crap!
03:5810, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
04:09Chill, chill, chill!
04:10Stop moving!
04:11I got my trusted tape measure.
04:13Timmy, the tower is 20 feet and two inches!
04:19Yeah!
04:20Congratulations, your tower is over 20 feet tall.
04:22Yes!
04:23And we still have this much time left.
04:25That and I truly hope it's enough.
04:27Here's the deal.
04:28You're not allowed to support the tower.
04:29Everyone get off.
04:30Ours is blocking the wind from yours!
04:32That's not how science works!
04:34It actually is.
04:35It's like frozen and let it go.
04:37Oh, you shouldn't let it go so slowly.
04:39Chris, your tower's about eight and a half feet tall.
04:43You gotta boot someone off your island for 30 minutes.
04:45Zach!
04:46Zach, you're gone for 30 minutes!
04:49Biggest thing for this tower is we need integrity.
04:51And that's why we have to cheat.
04:53Why don't you go to Lowe's,
04:54get really long metal rebar,
04:57and then quick dry cement.
04:58Do not fail me.
04:59All right, I got you.
05:06Chandler, you get one swing.
05:07You can hit whatever you want.
05:08The lower you hit, the more sturdy.
05:10All right, let's see.
05:11Relax, think about it.
05:12If you go easy, I'm just saying.
05:13Whoa!
05:15So, ah!
05:16Carl, he just obliterated your tower.
05:19Do not let him get away with that.
05:20Ah!
05:23He did nothing!
05:24LOL, LOL.
05:25Why are you sabotaging us, Carl?
05:27We only listen to your strategy.
05:33We're gonna add concrete to our bricks
05:35so that way they stay together better.
05:38We're gonna pour it right down the middle
05:40to hopefully harden the insides of the structure.
05:45Is no one seeing this?
05:46What's he doing?
05:47They put concrete.
05:49It doesn't make their tower taller.
05:51Now they're just being stupid.
05:52Chandler's tower's looking really tall.
05:54Here's a comparison.
05:56Wow.
05:56And here's the other tower.
05:58Why'd you say that so sad?
06:00If Chris falls, he's gonna break something.
06:03I don't know why I'm laughing, that's not funny.
06:05Now that the towers are getting freakishly tall,
06:07it's time we introduce hard hats.
06:09I don't feel anything, what's going on?
06:11This is so hard when you're tired.
06:13Oh my God.
06:14I don't think I've touched the ground in like three hours.
06:19Oh!
06:20Oh!
06:21Oh!
06:22Oh!
06:23Oh!
06:23Oh!
06:24Oh!
06:25Oh!
06:26Oh!
06:27Oh!
06:28Oh!
06:28Oh!
06:30Oh!
06:32Good enough.
06:33How you guys doing on break?
06:40I'm completely exerted all of my energy.
06:44Oh, God.
06:45So I'm gonna go home.
06:46You're going home?
06:47Yeah.
06:48Oh no.
06:48What about your team?
06:50They're all the proceeds will go to them.
06:52I will take none of it.
06:53Let's break down the news.
06:55Okay.
06:56I'm going home to sleep.
06:57Okay.
06:58do well in spite of me you can do it
07:04Chandler there's a really bad it's an
07:06embarrassment for the building community
07:07leaning it's wobbling we're freaking out
07:09really all it takes right now is one big
07:11gust of wind push it over
07:14be good
07:23it's so heavy build this up right here
07:26because this is kind of a weak spot we
07:27already got taller we just got to get
07:30sturdy so right now is our time to build
07:32up up up because ours is good we did the
07:34structure from the start and look where
07:35we are now look where we are late game
07:37baby
07:57as you guys saw their tower fell it went
08:00from being 35 40 feet to maybe 15 feet
08:04that's pretty brutal guys mm-hmm hurt a
08:06little bit more than you probably
08:07realized we can come back from it though
08:09positivity 50 grand is still on the line
08:12two hours what's your plan now I build
08:14it back very simple let's go I'm
08:16worried we're gonna build more and then
08:18it's gonna fall because I think that
08:19we don't only build if we have to this
08:21we're just gonna win mm-hmm shut up
08:29we're catching up we're not there yet
08:31but we're catching up but at the same
08:32time there's is so tall a gust of wind
08:35comes by that knocked ours down again
08:36there's going down we're scared if we
08:38keep on adding blocks to the top of it
08:40it's gonna start wobbling because we're
08:42touching it so fast they're getting up
08:44there fast they're going into laser
08:46speed Carl you're there for support they
08:49genuinely will go down we need to do
08:51something all right let's go let's go
08:54I hate this so much I can't tell you how
08:59terrible this is this is the worst thing
09:01I've ever experienced
09:05and time is up the final height of
09:09Chris's tower is that ginormous being
09:11and the final height of Chandler's JK
09:14it's now Timmy's tower is that before we
09:17measure the towers we have a bowling
09:19ball throw after this we will measure
09:22both towers and the tallest one wins
09:24$50,000
09:2750 grand oh my gosh it's so hard to aim a
09:34duct-tape bowling ball who would have
09:35thought all right that is your guys's

09:39are done hey come on yes you guys
09:46thought that was stupid you said it was
09:48stupid and it protected us go not gonna
