Synopsis
21st century re-version of The Great Egg Race which sees British and American inventors and scientists face off in a unique challenge in which they are have 48 hours to design, build and fly their own craft across the mighty Fish River Canyon in Namibia, the second biggest canyon in the world.
Aided by "performance-scientist" Dr Kal Spelletich and Dr Ian Johnston, the inventor of the world's most flippable beer mat, the two teams have to transport a valuable yet fragile cargo from one side of the canyon to the other and have it survive the journey intact. That cargo is... an egg.
