Did anyone else notice that ED's feet were dirty, like he had stepped down into the dirt. BB showed his feet after Danielle was allowed out of the house, after her shower? Does anyone know what happened?

Jen I noticed his feet at times, but I'm sure that was because the mud was splatter up on them. All 3 of them had mud all up and down their back sides in particular. Dick was barefoot so probably it dripped down or something.

There was one point when I was watching the feeds the zoomed on Zach's running shoes and they were totally caked in mud.

I noticed that too. It wasn't just feet, they had it as high as their back. I noticed on Dick especially since he had white on.

To Loppes: After all these years I registered to tell you THANKS! for all your great work in the Live Feed section. I've been a "lurker" here for years and a BB fan from day 1...You do wonderful work :D

I saw the dirty feet too and wondered if Dick had stepped down for some reason while we were only allowed to see the store room on the TV screen. Something was going on then. I figured workmen were out there trying to get the circling rabbit to run again. Maybe Dick had to get out of their way or something like that. I only saw a soaking wet shirt stuck to Dick's back and didn't notice mud. I could have missed it.

I saw it and commented on it in a thread. It wasn't splatters. This was uniform mud clear up above his ankles and wrapping around his legs. He had to have stepped in mud.

Obviously they let the guys down while they tried to fix the bunny hop thing. Zach didn't complain so I didn't/don't see it as a problem.

I agree with you Hummingbird. Something had to have happened because the mud looked too fresh.

I don't believe BB let the two players come off their carrot perches last night. That wouldn't have happen. Much more likely - as the mud was thrown or dropped at the two players it slid down to their feet. They were wet, and the mud slid down with their movements. Then the heavy rains washed lots of it away, until it was dumped again on them.

I'm thinking Dick has "blood on his hands". But no, it's only mud on his feet.

Did they ever sprary them with mud?

I noticed the muddy feet too. It sure looked like Dick had stood in the mud too.

But, since no one was complaining - I'm sure everyone was ok with whatever it was that caused the mud on Dick's feet.

On the subject of Dicks feet, How did he get his shoes off? He started the comp with socks and shoes on?

Dick started the competition with his shoes and socks on... yet later, he was in his bare feet... I think both he & Zach got a break when they were trying to fix the rabbit.

we had vortex for around 45 mins. How do we know Zach didnt freak out and argue until he was blue in the face?

Dick was quiet and calm when the feeds came back, like a man who finally had a cig after being up on the platform for hours.

Zach, in contrast, looked grim, angry and was scowling which was NOT how he looked before the Vortex.

just piecing it together.

Perhaps they both got to step down but still had to hold their arms up in the air. Something was going on and when they let us back in on the game, Dick had muddy feet. Zach looked like he was in boot camp being harassed by an abusive sargent. He was totally focused on winning and not on Dick's tirade. I didn't notice a difference in his expression after the feeds came back on. The only one complaining about it not being fair was Dani.

At some point, Zach must have been arguing with Dick during the comp, although we didn't see it - Dick and Daniele mentioned things Zack said, tonight on the feeds. Apparently all he could come up with was making fun of Dick's tattoos.

Zach was playing verbal volley ball with Dick at times..when Dick was doing his ranting psych-out thing.

Zach was giving it back to Dick to show Dick that his rants were not going to work this time. Dick's tatics only made Zach more resolved to win and wore Dick down quicker.

Zach's retorts may have been lame to the Donatos... but they worked!!!

Zach didn't talk too much smack. After Dani left is when he started giving Dick a taste of his own medicine but only about Dick. How maybe he could get some tatoos so he could be cool too. Something about Spider tatoo on Dick or something. It made me really laugh because what Zach said was so true. Dick's rants never bothered Zach in the least.

Oh, and yes I saw the mud on Dick's feet. That told me that indeed he did get to get down. Whether Zach did too is still a mystery. I think Zach would of pitched a fit had he not been able to get down also so all is good. The ultimate outcome put a smile on my face. Dick needs to make dang sure he can back up his smack talk as he really looked pathetic doing it to Zach, THEN lost. hahahahaha roflmbo (and I don't roflmbo hardly ever!) :-)

If something weird happened, they would have rehashed it by now. BB probably had both of them step down while they tried to fix the rabbit. Both got a break or both didn't. BB wouldn't come in and say, "Dick, jump off and have smoke and curl up in some towels. Zach, you must remain up there and have water sprayed on you while we fix the rabbit." LOL We would have heard about that by now.

There's good video of after Dani fell - so Dick didn't get down then. If he did get down, he was told it was ok.

Also regarding the bare feet - they didn't have to get down to take off their shoes. It's pretty easy to kick off your shoes and socks if you really want too. And, one hand could reach down to help. I imagine with wet feet they were probably getting blisters, so even though bare feet would be colder, they might have been more comfortable.

I thought the smack talk on both sides was just silly. I've neve really "got" smack talk. It just makes the talker look bad. But, I'm not a guy. I don't stake my life on manly pride or whatnot.

The mud was even on the back of Dani's socks before she ever came off the carrot stump. I believe it was during one of the first times the feeds were cut that all of a sudden they all had mud on them. Many of us in chat talked about it and it was Dani's white socks with mud that we noticed first. Also makes me wonder if it was the mud being shot at them that got in Dicks eye to cause an infection because I cant see just plain old water doing it.

The mud "on them" was lighter than the mud on Dick's feet when they came back. That mud was darker and it was perfect around his feet as if he stepped off the round thing. He def stepped off but I'm sure Zach got to also.

I agree, the mud on Dick's feet looked exactly like he'd been standing in the mud under the carrot stands. Not, something splashed up on him. So, they got down. Big deal. For once BB at least tried to make their comps work right. LOL.

I guess they should have had a back up bunny.

Someone somewhere posted that it looked like production staff where on a catwalk (scaffold) above and were dumping mud on the HGs.

I don't see a conspiracy here, either.

Costa, Daniele also said that the water sprayed on them was done by people on the roof, not mechanically.

When Dani was in the house; and the screen was down over the door, she opened the door a little and you could hear production talking to the guys. Then Dani asked if she could go back out and the screen went up.

Dani and Dick were talking about the competition and Dani told Dick she hated it when "those guys" would come out and throw cups of mud on them. She said she probably had worms in her hair. Which explains why we would periodically get the blue vortex, so we wouldn't see "those guys", and then the feeds would come back and you could see mud on their pants, shirts, whatever.

If I'm not mistaken, the last time we got the vortex was when people noticed the mud on Dick's feet. It was a pretty long period of time and I assume they came out to try to fix the game and Dick and Zach both had to step down at some point. Zach may have looked angry (I didn't notice that but I was watching all four feeds and couldn't see face expressions very well) because he knew that gave Dick time to recover his wind.

Yep. Mud deliberately tossed onto them for the endurance comp, as shown on the show tonight. We do make mountains out of molehills, don't we!
Or perhaps that should be snakes out of worms?
That was a brutal comp though, worse than Will peeing on Nicole.
Dare I come out and say it? Warm pee is less discombobulating than icy water down one's back for hours, and wormy mud up one's shorts.
