We've got a surprise in store for our competitors. Our cognitive challenges were missing one critical element of survival situations: stress. What you're going to do is you're going to go up the stairs and just follow the path over to that plank.

Oh Lord! Woohoo!

Oh God! [Music]

Woo, that's a good one!

Yeah, you're not done yet.

Oh, I'm done!

No, you're not.
