The teams face a game of nerve when they test the incredible strength of paper.

Science game show. The teams face a game of nerve when they test the incredible strength of paper. Meanwhile, the Lab Rats drop more objects from a great height.

Two intrepid teams, the Wild Rangers and S.S.B, face a game of nerve when they test the incredible strength of paper. A twisted piece of paper is hung in a U shape from a frame and each team has to hang a variety of household objects from the paper. The team that ends up ripping the paper loses the game. 

Meanwhile, Richard asks his Lab Rats to test Galileo's acceleration theory which states that due to gravity two objects of different weight will fall at the same speed. But, being Blast Lab, the experiment is a bit different to the kind that your average scientist would conduct. So, a big cheese and a little cheese, a big ball and a little ball, a big household appliance and a little household appliance, and a caravan and a carrot can are all dropped from a 30-metre crane.
