They have never come so close.
It continues with “Jocko and Klass against Prof Siben”. In the new season, moderator duo Joko Winterscheidt (42) and Klaas Heufer-Umlauf (38) will have to assert themselves again in several matches against their home broadcaster Pro Sieben. As a reward, there will be 15 minutes of free live broadcast time.
However, on Tuesday evening, the station came with very special obstacles.
In Game 3, “kidnapped and tied”, the two of them not only were suddenly hooded, they were brought into a room by unknown masked men and placed on a chair. The challenge didn’t go down well at first, Joko and Klass must leave the room.
But suddenly new information came: “A special circumstance is about to happen to you that will make it difficult to leave the building.”
A bonding expert came to the fore, who tied the pair of moderators like a package to their chairs. There was no chance for both of them without releasing together. At first Joko was joking: “Eventually we’ll understand!”
However, after some time, he was already moaning in pain: “Didn’t it hurt you? Ouch! “The class first examined my body and it was to determine: ‘You only see how fat my legs are when they are so tied up. ,
Still, he didn’t leave the hands of his ambitious colleague’s research. He must have landed on the bum of the class, who asked: “Is it part of your escape plan that you hit my bottom first? Please just do nothing and leave your pen to me!”
As an old Houdini fan, Klass tried to loosen the rope with his teeth, but it landed on his eyes and stopped moving. Frustration overwhelms the moderator: “So far everything was really great. I have a problem now!”
Nevertheless, both managed to get to the emergency exit with their chairs and win the game.
After dancer Nikita Thompson (41) and actor Edin Hasanovich (29) lost to both when they played for Pro Sieben, it then went to the finals. But the effort was particularly terrifying for the moderators: They were threatened with a live performance the following Thursday with vocals on “The Voice of Germany” if they lost the show.
But lucky: In the end, Jocko and Klass beat out their employer ProSieben and got 15 minutes of free airtime again at 8:15 p.m. Wednesday.
