As someone who is an Amazing Race superfan and already knew a lot of these secrets, fact 31 completely shocked me. It makes sense now, considering the tasks on that Bangkok leg were very mediocre.
I dug deep to find some stuff that people don't know.
@@OnceUponAnIsland I'm very impressed. Good job!
I heard that they were supposed to go to Laos in 19 however they had to replace it for another Thailand leg (leg 5), so I can’t believe it happened twice.
@@adammillwood2709 luckily they finally went on season 31
Q Donald written edition no of us friends
I like the description in Season 1 - "It's like no other race in history, it's the Amazing Race!"
I imagine if there would be "The Amazing Race: World Star" which the teams picked from all version of The Amazing Race around the world. Picked some from US, Asian, Latin, Australian, Canadian version, etc. Would it be fun to watch if this is happening?
When you said worldstar I immediately thought of the Instagram account WORLDSTAR lmao
Ideally, great idea. Realistically, a logistic nightmare. Note that every single team MUST have approved visas on ALL locations that the season will be travelling to. Some countries/nationalities may have easier approvals than others.
I agree. A world wide team season would be great!
That would be interesting, I would love that
@@ichanppc of course. The casting team needs to be more picky, for example do more research of each team's background (political relationship between the teams citizenship and the country they visit) and choose the team from countries that have powerful passport so they don't need to make visa in the embassy (I think, I'm not sure what kind of visa the amazing race teams and production team use). But I believe it'll be more fun to watch, cause the teams also fight for the name of their countries, like athletes in Olympic. Then probably will reach more viewers.
I never knew that Cesternino/Fishback were a potential team. That would have been epic!
My favorite show of all time! The Amazing Race is just an amazing show! I read the entire 20 year anniversary interview they did and it was so amazing! I wonder if I will see any in this list!
I made this video back in August, so nothing from that 20th anniversary interview, but I bet it will show up in the next TAR secrets video :)
Man I just gotta say your videos are so good! I’m hoping for more amazing race secrets vids in the future 🙌🙌
Let me know if you find any!
The Amazing race is my favorite show. Survivor 2nd. And i want my race back.
I feel bad for the season 33 racers who had their season cut short due to Covid.
@@OnceUponAnIsland
Last thing I heard was that filming was suspended and was going to pick back up when it is safe to film again.
@@night0wl438 I wonder what the logistics of that would be. It was suspended 18 months ago now.
@@OnceUponAnIsland that means most likely they r now filming coz i think season 33 might be out by december
As an Airline Employee, Phil's explanation for #30 is spot on... it's up to the Captain who, likely seeing them waving through the window of the terminal, decides whether or not to get blamed for the delay in order to allow people on board that may have been late. Begging the Gate Agent doesn't help, but the Pilot will not let the plane leave if they choose to let a passenger on...
I am always fascinated by the logistics of Amazing Race. That's a lot of countries to plan, a lot of permits to get, Visas to process, etc... I'd love to know if there was some place they tried to go, but they couldn't get permission from the different governments. I know they said Antarctica, but that was a different issue.
Saw amazing race being filmed in Puerto Vallarta in oct.2022. 5 teams ran by me with a cameraman filming them. I was yelling and screaming "go amazing race". Couple of bars had patrons screaming at racers too. It was on beach promenade Malecon. Cool!🤩🤩🤩😎😎😎😎
Great video - love the Amazing Race - actually re-watching every season on HULU - just started season 15. Look forward to new season - hopefully soon.
Interesting to know! I started watching the show this month. I began with season 32 and now I'm going backwards. It's so fun, but I'm have an awful luck because every team I was rooting for lost and the teams I absolutely didn't want to win... won. So yeah... Next is season 29 and I hope it's a good one
I would find in Wikipedia who won so you won't be devastated that the team you choose don't win
That’s what I have been doing!
It's better if you actually start from the earlier season because if you go in descending order some of them appear again
You should do a video with all the unaired challenges. I remember that there were one unaired roadblock in Mauritius (season 10), 2 in season 11.
Wow Phil’s accent has mellowed a lot
One of the "secrets" mentioned was about drinking a beer on the race with Chris and Bret from season 31. I forget which season it was, but there was a challenge in Germany where they had to carry a tray of beers from a bar into another establishment, and I'm almost positive that one of the racers actually took a swig of beer from the glass before continuing. Again, can't remember the season nor the team, but I'm almost positive it happened.
You might be thinking of Gus from season 6.
Great video as always.
It was really cool to see that in the later season they actually went to Jordan for the first time
I love Phill, but no way I'm buying that Uchenna and Joyce convinced the pilot to open the gates for them. Amber and Rob were absolutely robbed
I think it is a possibility Uchenna and Joyce did it themselves (they did have a camera man and a sound guy with them so they looked like they were on TV), but I do think the chances are higher that production stepped in.
The cameraman told my niece that Joyce was so distraught (and being filmed being so distraught so she must be important) that the gate attendant asked the pilot if he would be willing to let them on, thinking it was literally life or death and not realizing it was just a race for a million dollars.
The thing is, Phil said that it’s the PIC (Pilot In Command)’s choice to bring the plane back to the gate. While that is TECHNICALLY true, it doesn’t tell the whole story. There are consequences for every choice a pilot makes. If production reached out to American Airlines and told them that, for the sake of the show, the flight needed to return to the gate, and dispatch sent an ACARS message to the pilots, and the Captain decided NOT to return to the gate, what kind of repercussions would he have faced? As an airline pilot myself, if operations or dispatch tells you to return to the gate, you do it. It’s not really up for debate. So sorry Phil, show production totally could’ve bribed the airline to tell the pilots to return to gate.
I think rob and amber should’ve won
@@Anakinskywalkerfan1I agree. There’s other videos that have been commented on about this. Others have said that because CBS has rights to survivor, and both Rob/amber had each won their seasons on survivor. They figured(cbs or producers of amazing race), they couldn’t dole out even MORE money to rob/amber, again. A consolation prize may have been having their wedding paid for by cbs. If you re-watch season 11, towards the end where Rob/amber get eliminated, you see where all the teams are waiting for their turn to get on the boats to take them to the island where they look for letters addressed to the teams(roadblock). Uchenna says something to Rob about “hey, maybe we’ll all get on the same boat”. Rob gives uchenna the side eye and comments under his breath something like “yeah, idk”, with a real unhanded tone. Kind of like bringing back the whole flight issue from season 5. So yeah, they were cheated.
From the beginning Uchenna said he and Joyce were growing apart and he hoped the race would being them closer
Oh my gooooooodddd I remember when my parents had to tell me what Chippendales was because we watched the episode in real time!
I've been a fan for a long time but I started probably a handful of seasons in but I always wondered how they got all the tasks and things orginazied that they had to do an each leg of the race
"When do we leave in a month-"
"Tuesday :)"
Amazing race is returning!
Me finding out that Stephen and Rob would’ve been on The Amazing Race! That would’ve been amazing.
Love this show!
Love, love, love the Amazing Race!
Love, love, love the Amazing Race. Great TV!
Love this
Road Rules was the original Amazing Race!
I still believe those people in the seasons where they "didn't know each other" actually got to know each other before the show, or knew each other for a while...
goated channel.
Idk if u guys know but in season 2 I think it was a team lost their passports and Phil was rushing to the airport to eliminate them but then their passports were found
Best show on any television
I can see an Antarctica stop happening only if it won't be the reason you're eliminated just in case a team gets stuck
Weren’t Malory and Mark strangers in season 24 when they competed together after bopper was taken out of the race the day before it was scheduled to start?
i love amazing race! named my daughter Danielle and my niece Gabrielle which is a team in amazing race around 2006.. dunno what season it was..
Danielle was from S9 & 11.
imma get this video viral
Wasn't Jeff Probst almost hired as the host of The Amazing Race? Either that or Phil Keoghan almost hosted Survivor?
I think one of these, not both, was a consideration early on
I believe it was Phil who almost got Survivor over Jeff
It's interesting to think there was a time were they believed strangers wouldn’t work. Without the all-strangers season, we would have never had my favorite team team fun. They have that happy-go-lucky personality and just seemed like they were having so much fun. Doesn't hurt that I think Becca is hot
Hearing Leo and Alana got married made me so happy. Congratulations to them, they were a pleasure to watch
And they have the cutest baby boy too!
I'm happy to hear about Leo and Alana. I met Leo and Jamal some years back. Leo couldn't have been nicer and spent a few minutes with me. Jamal was OK, but there were other racers present and he (and most of them) were more interested in visiting with each other than some random fan like me. No problem, I completely understood that.
Oops. Wrong Leo. That's embarrassing. 😳
I love the amazing race, unfortunately, I live outside North America, and between seasons 31 and 32, every site I used to go to to watch episodes had shut down, and legal means aren't available for anyone outside North America, so I never was able to watch season 32
It's a pretty disappointing season in the second half.
32 is boring
Interesting story. I saw some of these seasons of The Amazing Race
i dont watch any of these shows i just like listening to u lol
Now we know why they can't do a leg in Antarctica...
I miss the old days. Like when they got cash to get a flight. Spend too much and you had to beg. And yes I know they do what they have been doing in recent past but I like when one team came in first they left first; 12 hours later. None of this groups of 3 or 4 leave at the same time. They need to bring back a food challenge too.
They need to bring back the feel of season 1-3 but in a 2022 world. I know it would be very different cause social media but I’d be interested in seeing something like that
Do you think they’ll have amazing race again? I would like to be apart of this show someday( well if Corona goes down)
They said they will have 33 filmed by the end of this year.
I know there are more seasons ordered from CBS but the pandemic is severely limiting travel logistics so if they can film, it will probably take longer to do so not to mention the roughly 6 month post production period.
@@LaZella I read they have a chartered plane that all of the teams will be forced to travel on together.
They have finished filming season 33 this month. Private plane charter and nobody pretty much spotted them, so they were in remote locations.
Am shocked about the silent rave..they didn't recognize them.. 😂..
Regarding the plane "debacle" from season 7 with Uchenna and Joyce-- I am against all the conspiracy theories. I can recall a time we were in Florida and they closed our gate early (4 of us flying). We begged them to let us get on the flight even after the door was closed and they were gearing for takeoff. We asked the multiple people working for the airline. After some time, the pilot stopped and reopened the door and after some finagling, made space for 2 of 4 of us to get on the plane. It is possible!
I've seen all of survivor and some amazing race. Any amazing race season recommendations that are on prime or hulu?
1-29 are on Prime so... all of them! But seriously, 5, 7, 12, 14, 15. 16, 19, 21, 23, 25, 26, 29, and 31.
If you are a newbie I 100% recommend these seasons: 5, 7, 12, 17, 20 (depends if you like drama personally it is in my top 5-10), and 25. After those I just recommend watching from 1 on and skipping those seasons you watched. There are some amazing seasons I didn’t mention has I don’t think a beginner should watch those as there first few seasons (like 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 14, 15, 18, 21, 22, 23, 27, 29, and 31).
Talking about scams what about season 5 in Africa, $100 for a taxi 💀
A bus.
Nice
If they want to go Antarctica I think it should be on the last leg before they go back the US using the pit stops method so even if they get stuck the other leg is in the US and all teams are mostly US citizen so they can get in at any time
You have to be a US citizen to be on the show, even if you have dual citizenship, but the US one is a must.
Wait, is the background music for this video is from a Pokémon game????
Or is it just me??
Regardless, this video is great - thank you for creating them! 🙌🙌
I promise no licensed music is used in this.
@@OnceUponAnIsland oh I see, it feels like from a pokemon game and it put a smile on my face thinking that it was hahaha.
Pokemon and Amazing Race is such a nice combo tho. 🙌😍
Colin and christie were amazing. I read they were amazing
Are you gonna do BB secrets sometime
Probably not
read the instructions carefully!!!! always!!
So in the truck flip, there is a small animal that looks as if it’s trapped in the back. 🤨
Yeah, Phil….sure….I’ll believe that whole airline issue…😏😉….
What season what Jonathan Knight from. NKOTB. Anyone???
26th season
@@carriejones9888 thank you sooooo much 😄
9:59 “inveto fertilization”
this man has been watching too much big brother
it’s in vitro fertilization
Oh no, Big Brother has infected my brain!
I thought it was hilarious. The fertilized Vito, the Italian dude. I wonder if it will take 9 months.
Talking about Season 7 I think it's more likely production stepped in earlier in the season. On the flight from Mendoza to Buenos Aires 4 teams were on the first flight. The next flight was like 5 hours later. Rob and Amber had finished the roadblock and had 45 minutes to get to the airport which was some distance away and go through the booking, ticketing and security in 45 minutes. Somehow they made the flight. Seriously?
You may find it surprising but many foreign airports do a much better job in moving people through the gate
Brooke is really annoying but to be frank, nobody can beat Flo. She's the champion of annoyance. But I wonder why there's nothing about her in here? 🤔
Edit: And please put [SPOILER] in the title. I'm still going through the old seasons now because I was a kid back then, and now I already knew a few winners of the seasons I've yet to watch. _sigh_
Flight attendants....lol.. Tar33 has a charter for all legs.. How will u ask them
33 will definitely be different.
It's in-VITRO fertilization...
Can u do a story about joey and Meghan in season 22 and 24?
Patrons pick the stories 😊
Ok thank u
“Secrets of Amazing Race” more like random facts….
Bret’s accent 😍😍
U can't use ff n ep ....at once...watttt
Phill is from my country New Zealand
New Zealand is beautiful.
I'm guessing you don't like Charla and Mirna. I looovvveeee them. There are many teams beside Uchenna and Joyce that spent time with them but unlike U and J, those teams love Charla and Mirna. To each their own I guess.
Which season of The Amazing Race is your favorite?
Season 31.
@@night0wl438 Really? Rob and Amber's season. Can't remember if it was 7 or 8
@@todaycuber9115 7
season 7
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 17, 18, 19, 21, 25, 29, 31 are all great in my book
They took the title from the movie rat race . So obvious.
I like season 7
I spotted a few errors in the video:
8:56 Brooke's tip doesn't always work. Some of the other racers claim that some countries barely have a few people who can only speak a few English words. If you travel a lot, you will know
14:30 I thought Season 32 did visited Columbia except that teams are told to stick to their assigned taxi cabs and not change taxis for safety reasons? o.O
TAR 28 went to Colombia first. This interview is circa 2009-2012ish.
@@OnceUponAnIsland Oh yeah, good point
And the stranger seaon,
Old tar was better 🥺
@27:05 That’s my favorite team and they should’ve won.
I just watched that season a couple of weeks ago, and they were my favorite too. Very chilled guys.
I think Rob and Amber are probably bored in real life.
I read that they have 4 or 5 kids. So definitely not bored. More like exhausted.
@@lizsays3324 they have 4 girls. You can bored when very busy
Why won't they visit Israel? TAR Australia visited in their first season. I guess because it's too politically charged?
There's literal war crimes commited in Israel & are documentee,recognised by the UN,Amnesty,HRW,even Israeli Government's Human Rights Agency acknowledge the war crimes commited. Just search Haaretz,Standing Together Movement,HRW,Ammesty,UN. There is also a security problem.
• You cannot film in most parts of Israel let alone the airport,govt buildings especially if its meant to be distributed to the whole world
• Every passenger coming into BGA will be given Barcodes and EVERYTHING needs to be scanned for non Citizens. This wastes times especially if you are carrying a large camera with a boom mic.
• There's too much risk in Going to Israel. One hour its fine, the next hour some Israeli settler blocks road,protesting govt,etc.
•Why bother risking TAR's credibility. TAR US is distributed in many Countries including Malaysia, Indonesia,Brunei,Saudi Arabia,Pakistan. A season featuring Israel will receive boycotts from BDS and simply Human Beings. The goal here is to maximize profits & keep sponsors happy
● Lastly,Sponsors play a huge role in deciding which country gets blacklisted from ever being visited. Sponsors need to appear as neutral as possible. Thus, it can make Sponsors go mad & Blacklist TAR from doing deals again.
That's why TAR has avoided India,Thailand,Turkey,China,Kenya,Uganda,South Africa,Egypt in recent seasons.
:-)
Noice
Uchenna and joyce broke up🙄🙄🙄
Btw tsup with flight tym and big easy
This is more like a reunion / gossip on the competitors- I was expecting more about the production process, background, rules, what competitors did in their downtime etc. Disappointed.
I think the new ones I made in 2023 would suit your tastes better then.
Unfortunately I know ,they can't go to my birth country Pakistan🇵🇰🌹😔
Have nothing to do with this video, but the worse team the Amazing Race put together was Mallory and Mark. Mallory is so dump. The should had partner Mark with Lake from season 9 are with Chuck from season 22 and another Chunk are Ryan from season 7.
Sadly I don't think we will see another season I think covid killed it for good.
They announced yesterday that they are planning on shooting 33 this year :)
@@OnceUponAnIsland where?
@@dominikamihokova784 www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/2021/09/amazing-race-33-filming-again/
They missed the fact that multiple people gave wrong directions intentionally in 30 .....and u missed the the fight at the end of 24 ...u missed the nail incident in 31 ,u missed the unaired head to head.. Because u are not a hard core fan...but all these secrets a lovely
This video is not about every secret ever, just the ones I found interesting. But, if you have links to prove any other secrets then they could be included in the next video.
Amazing race.
Season 4 - Debra is SO OBESE. Because of her, she delayed other teams.
In future, you have to put a very strict clause that contestants must be extremely fit, their BMI should be 25 to 28. Their weight should be up to 65 kg (for ladies). For men, it should be up to 90 kg.
They need to do a trial test before they are cleared for the actual amazing race. If they fail at their first attempt, they cannot appeal, and neither should they be given a second chance.
