- [Narrator] Sun's out, guns out baby, it's beach day!
Today we are here defending our sand castles.
- God, God, God. - Oh my God.
- [Narrator] Not again.
- [Narrator] Last sand castle standing wins $10,000.
- [Narrator] Here we go!
- [Narrator] Eugene is not with us, but do not fret,
we have Lauren from LaurDIY
and Michelle Khare from MK Ultra.
- Try Guys and Friends are at the beach today!
It's the Try Guys and Friends, only on "Try Guys."
(upbeat music)
- Let's do this!
(laughing)
- [Narrator] No, I didn't get a bucket!
Hi-tide is at 5:55pm,
that gives us three hours to build and defend our castles.
- [Narrator] Players stay in the game
until the plastic topper
falls off their sandcastle.
- [Narrator] Throughout the day we're gonna have
a series of mini games that win us different power-ups.
- A bucket,
a boogie bored,
and even a brick wall.
Did we get a brick wall?
- [Narrator] And if you don't win those games,
then you just gotta use your hands and start digging.
- [Narrator] I'm already behind.
- My sandcastle structure is gonna be based
off the mighty, mighty octopus.
With eight tentacles, how could it ever sink?
- [Narrator] What's he doing?
I'm gonna watch him.
- I got a big 'ol bucket of water.
Because this sand is so dry, it's not strong,
so I'm gonna start getting it into here
and really packing it down.
- This is way more physical than I signed up for.
I've been around sandcastles,
but it has been a very long time.
Oh my God.
Oh my God, it's actually not coming up.
- [Narrator] What's happening?
- It's stuck!
- [Narrator] What do you mean it's stuck?
- It's stuck.
I'm done.
- Now, everybody's counting me out today,
and they're absolutely right.
I don't know how I'm supposed to do this,
I don't get it.
I've got chronic back problems,
I (beep) hate the beach.
I find sand to be a real nuisance.
Once you go to the beach it never leaves you.
Not dense enough!
It's like the glitter of nature.
It's incessant.
- I think my biggest strategy for today
is just gonna be to treat this like an hour long work out.
I actually watched a couple YouTube videos on competitive
sandcastle building.
A lot of it is kind of counter intuitive so,
good luck everybody.
- You know me, I'm a Florida boy.
We like bad decisions and beach days.
Maybe I'll ask everyone if I can borrow their bucket,
then forget to bring it back.
Hey, can I borrow your bucket?
- [Narrator] What? No!
- Thanks!
My goal today will be
to take down the other four castles.
I'm telling the water which way to go.
(man laughing) (upbeat music)
I may not make the best structure,
but I will redirect the most water at my opponents.
Very gracious.
If you ever need to call in that favor,
you got it.
- 15 minutes castle builders, 15 minutes.
- [Narrator] This is stressful.
(intense music)
- This is my decoration.
It's gonna separate me from the competition.
- We're gonna finish up
the castle building in five,
four,
three,
two,
one,
put your final piece on your castle!
(man gasping)
(relieving music)
All right, we have assessed your sandcastles very carefully.
Sandcastle number one,
Keith!
(crowd cheering)
- I'm so close to the top baby!
- [Narrator] Come get your shovel.
- Wow. look at this mother (beep).
This is huge.
- Whew!
My name is Nedverd of Bevenberd.
I will have my revenge!
(man cheering)
(crowd cheering)
- [Narrator] Participation!
- All right, give me the ice cream scooper,
let's get this over with.
- [Narrator] Defend your castles!
- The name of the game is to keep your castle alive
for as long as possible.
- One of my nails fell off this morning,
but I've got nine long nails
that I feel like are little shovels.
Look at my form.
We're going for a break wall,
as our first layer of defense.
- A lot of people are gonna be going straight for the moat.
I'm on the outside,
which means al I gotta do is get the water this way.
I'm gonna have a network of channels,
you're gonna see water, it's gonna go through pipes,
and then boom!
In your castle.
Nope. Nope.
I have been watching a lot of Netflix's
"The Last Kingdom," lately.
I'm half a viking, half a Saxon,
100% a Floridian!
(wind wooshing)
- I might not have the prettiest looking sandcastle,
but I'm gonna have the deepest moat, and the highest wall.
What is it called?
Fortress!
- My shovel broke!
(crowd laughing)
This was not worth second place at all!
- I may have come in last place,
but this metal spoon is never breaking.
I feel like there's a magnetic force,
that's just bringing the water to my castle already.
The water needs a pathway out.
Once it floods, it's gotta be able to escape.
- My goal is to give the water places to go,
so that it doesn't go to the octopus.
Man, I'm thirsty.
You know what I'm saying?
- [Narrator] Oh no, here it comes!
(crowd screaming)
- My castle wall has been breached!
Oh, I'm so (beep)!
- Oh god this is a big one!
- No!
(crowd screaming)
- No!
(both screaming)
- Maybe if the water's already in here,
there can be more water you know?
- I'm building a third wall.
- Oh my God.
(upbeat music)
- I don't think I can hula hoop at all.
- You know I was a camp counselor.
- I'm not good at this.
(upbeat music)
- Oh wow.
(upbeat music)
- Whew!
That's stable!
(woman gasp)
- Two baby boogie boards?
It's my lucky day!
Thank you.
(man laughing)
- You do get a board.
- I get to walk the plank?
(air whooshing)
- We have five sandcastles standing.
Whoever's castle is the last standing,
will win the money.
(woman screaming)
I'm really putting my money on Keith.
There's who's the best at this and who wants it.
- Okay, so, the octopus, he's a genius.
He doesn't win just by being strong,
he wins by being smart.
Now I've noticed that there's a lot of birds around here,
and Ned's is just too tall.
It's never gonna come down.
So we need the forces of nature,
other than the water,
to take it down.
We're gonna go grab some birds.
We're gonna try to have them attack Ned's castle for us.
Let's go.
Birds!
Birds.
Get it!
Get it birds!
Get it boy!
Get it!
Get it birds, come on now!
(man Laughs)
(intense music)
(man screaming)
(crowd screaming)
- We got what we asked for.
Well, the birds didn't know down his castle,
but they got close and boy was it fun.
(upbeat music)
- I'm about ready to give up
and commit myself to a stronger kingdom.
I think that Michelle's kingdom is looking really good.
What do you need?
What can I do for you?
I'm giving up, I'm done, I'm done.
Oh watch out!
- Oh my God!
(woman screaming)
- Good job octopus.
- I'm draining it into theirs.
- No! No! No! No!
Block!
- Come on!
Come on now!
(crowd screaming)
- Not like this!
(man screaming)
(woman screaming)
- Oh dear god.
Look at Zach's.
Yours is just as strong as Michelle's without any effort.
- I was really counting on being out a long time ago.
This is unbelievable.
- [Narrator] Oh my God.
(wind whooshing)
(crowd screaming)
- No!
(crowd screaming)
- No, no, no, no.
(crowd screaming)
(woman laughing)
(sad music)
So sad.
- [Narrator] It's time for our Frisbee challenge.
- My wall!
(Nick laughing)
My wall!
Nick, hurry us with the game,
I gotta start bailing!
- Okay, sandcastle builders, our next challenge is,
you all each have a Frisbee, you're gonna toss it to
various sized buckets, bowls, and mugs.
Whichever yours lands closest to,
is what you can use to bail out your castle.
- [Narrator] Oh my God!
(upbeat music)
- [Narrator] From this point onwards,
no more touching of sand,
all you can do is bail water out.
(upbeat music)
- Oh my God!
(crowd screaming)
- [Narrator] Oh, no, my cutting board!
No!
Wait!
I got it!
(timer ticking)
(calm music)
(man gasping)
- [Narrator] Oh no Keith!
- [Keith] Oh, my face!
- [Narrator] Oh, wow!
- [Narrator] His face!
- [Narrator] Oh my God.
- [Keith] The face of mine has really crumbled but,
luckily an octopus's head sits back,
so I put the castle on the back of its head
so its got more defense until it comes down.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Oh, Michelle is cracking a little bit,
but I think she's got that strong base.
- [Narrator] Oh-oh.
(Zach screams)
- No!
I cannot believe that mine is still hanging on.
I'm living on borrowed time right now.
- Zach's has gotta go down soon right?
It's a castle on a cliff ledge.
Yours looks like a fantasy novel.
- I mean, look at the cracked Earth.
- As I was saying, I have the octopus,
but you have the kraken.
(eagle crowing) (both laughing)
(upbeat music)
(tense music)
- No, no, no, no, no. - Oh no, no, no, no.
(crowd screaming)
(calm music)
- No.
All right.
Well,
I'm out.
- [Narrator] There's only three castles left
and mine is barely a castle at this point.
So, I think it's gonna be between Michelle and Ned,
but I'm gonna stay by my guy until he's fully out.
- [Ned] Watch out (indistinct).
- [Zach] Oh Michelle.
- I know it's cracking.
- [Ned] Maybe Michelle's gonna be the next one out.
- Oh, no no no no no!
He's still alive!
Oh boy.
(joyful music)
(water rumbling)
I'm doing my best right now,
to fight the waves with these legs.
God gave me these gams.
So I feel like I'm not totally out of this yet.
Oh this is it.
(suspenseful music)
(woman screaming)
- [Narrator] No.
- [Narrator] Oh no.
What?
Oh my God!
(sad music)
What a plot twist!
- Man, I lost to Ned?
- [Keith] We're still alive baby!
- [Zach] Yo, now it's heating up!
Now it's heating up!
- I'm playing for Planned Parenthood.
I always play for Planned Parenthood.
This time, I'm gonna win!
I haven't won for them in a while so,
we gotta do it!
- I'm playing for the National MS Society,
and I'm gonna take it all!
No, no, no, no, no!
- [Narrator] We got about a half hour left till full tide.
All tools need to come out.
- My cutting board is doing such good work though.
- [Narrator] Cutting board out!
- (grunts) There's no way I can protect this with my hands.
Ned has got the height.
What do I have?
I also am tall.
I'm gonna use my body as a shield to stop the waves myself.
- [Michelle] Oh my God it worked!
- It really does help I think to
pick the brunt of the water
and just change it's direction, just a little.
(Michelle laughs)
Kick!
(upbeat music)
(man laughing)
- Oh god!
(intense music)
(crowd screaming)
- [Lauren] Keith has fallen.
Keith has fallen!
- Yeah!
Yes!
I won it for the National MS Society,
great organization.
MS is a really terrible disease.
- [Narrator] Congrats Ned!
- I tried very thing today.
I tried birds, I even put my body on the line.
I didn't win.
But you know what?
A solid try feels just as good as a win.
- [Narrator] Yeah!
(waves rumblingng)
Whew!
(upbeat music)
(waves roaring)
- No!
