Synopsis
In the 28th Season of The Amazing Race at least one team member was required to be a social media star, which included: Erin White Robinson and Joslyn Davis, YouTube hosts for the news and entertainment channel Clevver; teammates professional frisbee players Kurt Gibson and Brodie Smith a YouTuber; Vine personality Zach King and wife Rachel; and Instagram models and friends Jessica Versteeg and Brittany Oldehoff (Miss Florida USA, 2014). Instead of a traditional Starting Line, teams received a video message from Phil Keoghan informing them that the Race had already begun. The sprint kicked in, traversing 27,000 miles across 18 cities and 10 countries including first time visits to Colombia, Georgia and Armenia. The racers faced various challenges, including submerging themselves in a mud bath on top of Colombia's El Totumo volcano, assembling a Swiss Army knife from twenty-seven individual pieces in Switzerland, using bicycles to race against camels in Dubai, and carrying live pythons around their necks in Indonesia. *Outstanding Reality Competition Program Emmys - 2014, 2012, 2011, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003
