[00:00] MATTHEW: Today two teams are competing to score 18 hole-in-ones first. Both start on hole number one, but after you can choose any of the 36. Go! First try.
[00:24] Oh that could be it! That could be it! Keep going . . . no!
[00:36] [music] MATTHEW: Yes Colin . . . that's perfect.
[00:51] MATTHEW: Oh, they've figured it out. They've figured it out. MATTHEW: Yes Colin . . . oh! TOMMY: All right guys so I snuck out. I'm going to go check out the other holes so I
[01:06] know which ones we should select in advance. Big brain. MATTHEW: Yes Owen. Wait, you're not on my team. No! No!
[01:18] MATTHEW: Woah, woah, woah. ISABEL: So Tommy disappeared from the first shot. We are going to go find him. TOMMY: All right guys, I scouted out different holes we can go to that are super easy so we know.
[01:33] All right, this way. This way, guys. TOMMY: Wait guys, I will be right back.
[01:58] MATTHEW: Good. Good. Go. Go. ISABEL: No, they scored! We have to keep going.
[02:10] So go right on to number two. [music]
[02:27] MATTHEW: Yo, what? ISABEL: Yep. Yep. What? ISABEL: On to hole 3.
[02:41] MAGGIE: They just scored again. They literally scored again. MAGGIE: That wouldn't have gotten far at all.
[03:00] Go . . . yeah! All right, this way. TOMMY: Right here. Isabel, you want to do this one again?
[03:18] MATTHEW: All right, follow me, follow me. ISABEL: Come on, bounce back. You're kidding!
[03:32] MATTHEW: They made like four holes already. MATTHEW: No! So close! TOMMY: All you have to do here is hit the golf ball into the top of the Volcano.
[03:46] TOMMY: There we go! Second try again. MATTHEW: Guys, they have 5 hole-in-ones I think, and we're still on the second. and have it go in there.
[04:00] And then we're just back to playing normal golf. Upstairs we go.
[04:12] TOMMY: That was my first try. ISABEL: What? MATTHEW: Go. Go.
[04:34] MATTHEW: Go. Just go! What is happening? TOMMY: Good job, team. Should we try this one right next to it?
[04:52] TOMMY: Yeah, this one is actually pretty hard. This one's pretty tough. We might come back to it, but I found another one that we could do.
[05:12] TOMMY: It's going to fall into the dinosaur's mouth. What? It missed the dinosaur. TOMMY: That was, oh my, what was that? ISABEL: Oh, oh, woah!
[05:30] TOMMY: Into the dinosaur, out, and off. Okay so you're probably not going to score it that way, so you should just try to putt it from here straight and in. ISABEL: Yep, yep. Yeah!
[05:45] MATTHEW: They scored another one! MAGGIE: They keep cheering. ISABEL: While Owen just scored that shot, I saw this one next to it and it looks pretty easy to me.
[06:09] [sad music] TOMMY: Just like that! [cheering]
[06:22] [sad music]
[06:36] MATTHEW: Go in . . . yes! [cheering] We made it in the holes like 30 times but now we're on to hole 3.
[06:48] MATTHEW: While Maggie is trying this one, Colin's going to be attempting the next hole to see if it's possible. We'll know if we need to skip it or not. Like look, I don't think this is possible.
[07:05] If I put it in this one, it goes to the right. Put it in the first one, too short.
[07:17] ISABEL: Let's go! [cheering] Forget everything I said earlier in the video. This hole is the best hole ever. It's very possible. MATTHEW: They made another one guys; they made and another one.
[07:32] They all roll right here. I think we have to skip this one. There's not much we can do about it. [Music] TOMMY: We were here four years ago. Matthew and I competed in a challenge against each other,
[07:46] and Matthew tried this one slide shot for like 30 minutes and couldn't score. TOMMY: I think we only try like five and then we move on to the next one. TOMMY: Down the slide . . .
[08:05] MATTHEW: Go, go, oh. MATTHEW: Come on, Maggie, you got this.
[08:18] TOMMY: See look at how unpredictable that one is. TOMMY: What? What are the odds of that?
[08:36] TOMMY: There he goes down the slide. TOMMY: Let's go check on the other team. Should we just check on what they're doing ? Let's go see what they're up to. TOMMY: This looks tough.
[08:53] [cheering] TOMMY: Matthew was, like, cheering for our shot. He was telling it to "get in." MATTHEW: I think we need to skip this.
[09:08] We're switching again. We've already had to skip two holes.
[09:24] TOMMY: Nice, Izzy! All right, here it comes. ISABEL: Let's see. TOMMY: Down the tube. MATTHEW: They got another one. They're more than halfway done.
[09:38] YES! [cheering] MATTHEW: Boom! Four holes down!
[09:50] ISABEL: Excuse me . . . oh, sorry! All she has to do is make it to the top of the volcano.
[10:02] MATTHEW: First try! There you go, Maggie! [cheering] ISABEL: Bat flip. This one is going to be pretty difficult because there is a lot of luck involved.
[10:22] Last video we tried this slide shot for a decent amount of time and I never got it. MAGGIE: Why would we do that? MATTHEW: We have to make sure we can erase the problems from the past.
[10:39] MATTHEW: Imagine I make this. I'm going to set a five minute timer, and that's how long we're trying this shot. I have a feeling this is one of them that Maggie, Matthew, and Colin were stuck on.
[11:11] MATTHEW: Get in. MATTHEW: Get in . . . no! This is so close.
[11:27] Oh my, guys, I actually have hope right now. I have hope.
[11:54] MATTHEW: I need to hit it straight. I'm not hitting it straight. YEAH! [cheering] I did it! We got the slide hole! I didn't get it last time. I didn't get it last time.
[12:08] Eight holes down. Maggie, let's go, up here. We want to get all 18 done. We're going to skip this one and maybe go back to it. This next one, you see there's an opening here that should give it a really good chance at a hole-in-one.
[12:27] [cheering] MATTHEW: Off the brick . . . [sad music]
[13:00] TOMMY: That's skill. TOMMY: The red hole--that doesn't count. TOMMY: Into the red hole.
[13:15] MATTHEW: No! [sad music] MATTHEW: Good Maggie. Keep making it.
[13:45] [cheering] They only have three holes left. We need to skips this. We're done, okay? MATTHEW: Last one. Last one.
[13:59] All right, yeah, that's it. Isabel's going to do the next one. And team captain, Owen, is going to do hole 18.
[14:11] ISABEL: No way. OWEN: First try!
[14:23] [cheering] MATTHEW: Barely dropped in. Okay, we're nine. Nine is through.
[14:38] MATTHEW: Go. Perfect. In the middle.
[14:51] OWEN: Yes. Yes. TOMMY: No! [cheering] MATTHEW: That barely went in. Let's go!
[15:08] [suspenseful music]
[15:21] MATTHEW: This is so hard. [cheering] TOMMY: That was so lucky.
[15:33] MATTHEW: They have two left.
[15:51] [cheering] ISABEL: One more shot! TOMMY: Team captain, you get to finish this one up for us. Guys, look at this. I can just move the players.
[16:09] MATTHEW: All right, I got this. OWEN, OWEN, OWEN [chanting]
[16:23] OWEN: You have to hit it up that red thing. TOMMY: You have to hit it into that little red thing? You're kidding me.
[16:36] MATTHEW: Okay, next one, next one. We got to go. We got to go. MATTHEW: That's eleven. Seven left.
[16:51] [cheering] MATTHEW: On to the next. I'm right here. I'm right here. I"m ready. TOMMY: Very close.
[17:04] MATTHEW: Quick, quick, quick. Balls, balls, balls. MATTHEW: Off the wall . . . so close.
[17:24] [cheering] MATTHEW: Five left. Let's go back down. Let's go back down.
[17:36] TOMMY: That was in and out. Owen, you made it, but it didn't go in. [Music] Good
[18:02] MATTHEW: Go, go, go . . . [cheering] MATTHEW: Okay, I think that's 14. We have four left.
[18:15] ISABEL: They're coming. TOMMY: I'm not scared. MATTHEW: Power. Colin it can roll back. It can roll back.
[18:33] MATTHEW: Do this one. This is easy. Maggie, you do this one. If she hits right in here it is an automatic hole-in-one. MATTHEW: We'll be two away if you get this.
[18:48] MATTHEW: Oh, what? MATTHEW: Go. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Go in. Guys, last time we were here, there was one hole I couldn't score.
[19:03] MATTHEW: This is my last hole. I want to do it. MATTHEW: I never made it. I think I can do it right now. MAGGIE: Why? MATTHEW: It's time to prove myself I can do it.
[19:19] COLIN: Go, go, go, go! TOMMY: We can hear the other team is catching up, but we're not worried.
[19:33] [music] COLIN: Go, go!
[20:02] [cheering] TOMMY: Yes, you did it! OWEN: Yes, let's go! MATTHEW: We lost. Good job to the other team. This hole, I don't know, I can't do it.
[20:18] TOMMY: You guys made a good run. You made a very good run. MATTHEW: Good job, guys. MATTHEW: Congratulations, guys. TOMMY: Thank you. MATTHEW: We are now silver.
