  In this leg's Detour, teams chose between Light Brigade or Masquerade. In Light Brigade, teams dressed up as court servants and had to assemble an elaborate crystal chandelier. If teams assembled it to the satisfaction of the chamberlain, he'd hand over their next clue. However, if they don't get it on their first try, the chamberlain would destroy the chandelier, forcing them to start over. In Masquerade, teams had to wear elaborately colored masks before joining a Viennese ball to search amongst waltzing couples for the pair wearing masks identical to their own, but teams had to pay attention as the masks had minute differences. Once teams found the right dancers, the hostess would give them their next clue.
  To win the Fast Forward, one team had to head to the Donauturm, Vienna's tallest structure, to perform a 500-foot (150 m) bungee jump back down to the ground. However, in the event of unfavorable weather, teams were informed that the task would not be available until optimal conditions returned so they could complete the task safely.
  For the Roadblock, one team member had to learn how to sing Franz Schubert's "Die Forelle" and then perform with the Vienna Boys' Choir with the correct German pronunciation and musicality to receive their next clue from the choir master.
  Additional tasks
  At the start of the leg, teams had to travel 640 miles (1,030 km) by overnight train to Vienna, Austria. Upon arrival in Vienna, teams traveled to the Vienna State Opera, where they would meet a person dressed as Rigoletto, who would take them to the opera house's costume department and would give them their next clue.
  At Schönbrunn Palace, teams had to search the palace's garden hedge maze for their next clue.
