*At Centro de Instrução de Guerra na Selva, both team members had to first wear military clothes and then set fire using two different methods. Once they set fire, one team member at a time had to climb to the top of a tree using a Brazilian Army technique and retrieve an ''Amazing Race'' flag. Once teams completed this training, they would receive their next clue.
*At the soccer field, teams had to complete a board with spaces numbered 1-12, each corresponding to a previous leg. They had to search for 12 pictures of different moments from the season (Roadblock, Detour, Route Info or Pit Stop) in chronological order, searching for the pictures in different baskets. Once teams completed their boards correctly, the judge would hand them their final clue.
