The part about Albert cheating is less clear to me. They were wearing
goggles under their blindfolds and it's hard to tell if they prevented them
from seeing straight down. There's a quick shot of Edna with her blindfold
off wearing goggles but I couldn't tell if she would be able to see if she
looked straight down.


I mentioned that as we first watched ... and on review it appeared

I don't doubt that Albert might have been able to see when looking
straight down. I would point out that if he could do so then it's
likely that just about everyone else could do the same thing. So give
him credit for realizing it was possible and using that opportunity to
get a slight advantage.

Exactly. I don't know why anyone would call it cheating. My guess is
that the contestants don't even put their own blindfolds on, just to
make sure it's fair. The challenge called for him to be blindfolded,
he was blindfolded, no cheating involved there.
