Connor and Jonathon Connor Diemand-Yauman Age: 22 Hometown: Chesterland, Ohio Connection to your Teammate: Best friend Current occupation: Student Favorite hobbies: Singing in our a cappella group, volunteering, speech/debate and sports Achievements: Serving as student body President at Princeton University Lifelong to do list: Beat Phil Keoghan in a foot race What scares you most about traveling? Getting sick What excites you most about traveling? New adventures and the unexpected If I could switch places with someone: Shirley Tilghman (President of Princeton) Role model/hero: Barack Obama What are you passionate about? Show tunes. What would you do if you won the million dollars? Withdraw the full amount in one-dollar bills, put it in a kiddie pool, jump in, jump out and take a shower (apparently money is really dirty). People would be surprised to learn: Dalmatians are born without spots Favorite place you have ever visited: Princeton, N.J. Biggest challenge you and your teammate will face on the Race together: Staying in harmony (musically and competitively) What do you hope to accomplish by running the Race (other then winning one million bucks)? An incredible experience and the chance for one last hurrah with Jonathan before we graduate and go off into the real world. Pet peeve about your teammate: At times Jonathan can be overly concerned with getting in trouble and he's often afraid to break any sort of rules. Jonathan Schwartz Age: 22 Hometown: Cranford, N.J. Connection to your Teammate: Best friend Current occupation: Student Favorite hobbies: Singing in our a cappella group, filmmaking and filling out surveys Achievements: It's a three-way tie between getting into Princeton, being cast in a Broadway show and opening up that really tough jar of pickles in the back of my fridge. Lifelong to do list: Make a lifelong to do list What scares you most about traveling? The fact that other travelers are probably going to pass gas on airplanes without me hearing it What excites you most about traveling? The opportunity for me to pass gas on airplanes without anyone hearing it If I could switch places with someone: Yanni Role model/hero: My parents, Mother Theresa and Kenny G (not necessarily in that order). What are you passionate about? Tweezin' the old unibrow What would you do if you won the million dollars? If I were to win the million dollars I would buy a pony, but just one. People would be surprised to learn: That my name, “Jonathan,” is translated to mean “gift from God.” Coincidence? I think not. Favorite place you have ever visited: My podiatrist's office (bunion surgery – more like “Fun-ion” surgery.) Biggest challenge you and your teammate will face on the Race together: Not dying while circling the globe. What do you hope to accomplish by running the Race (other then winning one million bucks)? On the Race, I hope to accomplish world peace, eradicate hunger and give Phil Keoghan a buzz cut. Pet peeve about your teammate: He's taller than me.

Jonathan's sense of humor is either going to be very entertaining or very annoying depending on how and/or when he brings it into play -

So, if you need to pass gas around Jonathan, just make sure to really let it rip so he can hear it, and all should be good.

When "warned" does he clap on a gas mask, hold his breath, or what?

LOL... I think these two are going to be hilarious. I hope they don't annoy me so I can enjoy their sense of humor.

LOL TNT. But Jonathan didn't say he was concerned about the "aftermath." Only that he might not be able to hear it.
