magic_star 2400 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Seventeen Magazine Model" 06-07-03, 01:19 AM (EST) "Possible Episode Three Location?" LAST EDITED ON 06-07-03 AT 01:26 AM (EST) On the preview you can see that the Bungee is an Esprit. There are only five of these in the world. They're in Dortmund, Munich-Oberschleissheim, Vienna, Klaus dam in Upper Austria, and Hamburg. Take a look at these pictures: http://www.jochenschweizer.com/english/set/index4.html It's definitely not Munich, Upper Austria, or Hamburg. So even Vienna or Dortmund. Most likely Vienna. But the calculations are off. 1 meter=3.2808 feet. 460/3.2808=140 meters Esprit says it is 152 meters high. Maybe CBS went down a little bit, but that seems odd since you would think they would make it look like it was bigger than it really is. It might be possible that Esprit counted the tower with its calculations and maybe TAR didn't. I think the tower is 13 meters high so that would bring the bungee jump down to 139 meters which is only 1 meter off with the CBS version. Here is a good picture of the jump, which gives a nice sceneric view similar to the one in the preview. The Dortmund one is in Germany. It is 150 meters high. Here is a picture of that one: So it looks like they'll be going to either Dortmund, Germany; or Vienna, Austria. Here is the vid cap picture: Thanks Joisey! I'm leaning towards Vienna. T-Mac hits the three! Magic Win! Magic Win!   Top

"Possible confirmation" I've been hearing from someone who claims to have contact with one of the players on and off so far this series, and this person had also said (a few days ago) that the E3 pitstop is in Vienna. I wanted to wait to see if that looked correct before posting anything ... as you might guess, we get incorrect information all the time ... but this one may be genuine. Anyway, looks like Vienna it is ... nice job, star!   Top
