Amazing Race: Double U-Turn This!

This leg kept the teams in China where they faced double U-Turns and unsafe dinosaurs. I was quite sad that many teams let the double U-Turn go by and didn’t U-Turn anyone. That doesn’t make it fun to watch! Thankfully, two teams did U-Turn other teams which led to...
