Fans who are wondering “Who went home on The Amazing Race last night?” in season 36, episode 8, will find all the details related to the elimination and the reason behind it. In this episode, a big mistake from a contestant prevented them from winning the grand cash prize. Here’s an explanation of who got eliminated and what happened to them.
Who was eliminated on The Amazing Race Season 36, Episode 8?
The Amazing Race has captivated audiences with its unique angle as a reality show that tosses teams of two into a race in various parts of the world. In Season 36, Episode 8, the team to get eliminated was the mother-son duo: Angie and Danny.
In this particular episode, for the first time, the team went to Barbados. Since stepping into Barbados, the mother-son duo has solidified their second position in the game; however, this time things didn’t work out in their favor. At first, they seemed to have lost their way while searching for the next clue, and an unfortunate rain worsened their condition. Yet, they did manage to find a way out to reach the roadblock, which struck a lot of memories in Angie’s tennis player mind.
As the teams raced against time to reach Rihanna’s house for the clue, Angie makes a surprising revelation. She says that she doesn’t know “The Rihanna.” Although the duo managed to overcome the obstacle that came their way, they made the huge mistake of not being connected with the crew. In the game, it’s a compulsion for teams to walk with their crews, but in the duo’s case, they lost them somewhere. They did reach fifth place at one point, but their navigation skills couldn’t help them secure a position in the top 6.
The two main reasons that cost them their second place were: their navigation skills were a bit disappointing and they were required to wait for the crew’s arrival to proceed further in the game. That’s when they lost the majority of the time, reaching late and getting dethroned from coming into the Top 6.
