NOW CAN YOU ESTIMATE HOW MANY HULA DANCING CHICKENS THERE ARE HERE?
[CROWD SHOUTING] ESTIMATION CRUSTACEAN, YOU GO FIRST.

THERE SEEMS TO BE JUST A FEW CHICKENS HERE.

A THOUGHTFUL ESTIMATE.
- THANK YOU.

32?
- WELL, LET'S FIND OUT WHO'S THE CLOSEST.
THERE ARE 1, 2, 3, 4, 4 DANCING CHICKENS.
THAT MEANS THE ESTIMATION CRUSTACEAN WINS!
YES.
5 DANCING CHICKENS IS A CLOSER ESTIMATE THAN 32.
BERT, YOUR ESTIMATION WAS WAY TOO HIGH.
