I'm hoping Jason gets cheered on Friday night. That will worry the others, especially Laura and Jackson.

I thought Jackson hit the button first, i would love to see that task in slow motion, i notice the task isnt on the web site yet.
Judging by the grin on Jackson's face, I'm sure he thought he had won the money.

It's getting kinda ridiculous around here - every day there seems to be another of these ''Jason did ****** and he's blah blah'' threads.
The man can't take a deep breath without being accused of stealing someone's oxygen!
They are ALL in that house to play a game, some play it better than others and that's a fact.
IMO Jason is one of the most decent HM's in there and I hope he is there till the end.
This.

I thought they all had their arms by their side.
They did.

Very well said.

Couldn't agree more

Jackson was also staring at the button.
And drooling.

They didn't even do the task, it was all CGI made by NASA.

The first thing I did was play it back in slow motion on my remote, and it looked like Jason was well behind Jackson.
i thought that at the time but who knows with the edit.
I think they deliberately edited it to look like Jackson was ahead of Jason to ramp up the tension

Not sure they could've. Jason was to the side and partially hidden. Jackson was centre stage. The camera angles were limited.

I love how people come up with conspiracy theories when things don't go their way.

Jason did exactly what BB asked and won that money fair and square. No point bleating on about it.

on the positive side, jason lost the game when he pressed that button and evicted lateysha.

he's been absolutely desperate for the win, so it's nice to see that he pissed away the title, the money and the image he carefully constructed by being one split-second faster than jackson and hooie.

jason did one other thing yesterday. he gave charlie the vindication she deserved.

all in all, good job, jason. enjoy your 20k.

I disagree - he is near the top on all polls and top in some. His odds are shortening with the bookies too. I think by evicting Lateysha he has turned things around.

It did look like Jackson was quicker, it also looked like Jason's hand fumbled and he hit it again as the first hit only looked like his hand was on the edge of the button and maybe didn't press it properly.

Was probably nothing in it really and giving it to Jason definitely gave a more entertaining result

Jason had black sleeves with a black background area, so we can't clearly see any arm movement. He didn't raise his hand very high up. He pressed the button in the most efficient and quick way. If you look at Sam's sideways head movement in both camera viewpoints, you can see that Jason did get there first.
Agreed.

The others did dramatic up and over movement so their hands were way above the buzzer - that was a waste of time. The others also pressed and released their buzzers - Jason pressed and held his down ...so if the system was recording which button was showing as being pressed WHEN the start buzzer went off... Jason would be identified as the winner.

Jason was nowhere near favourite to win, probably still isn't. But he's 20,000 richer. Since when has someone that old won the normal BB? Lateysha has thousands of twitter followers, with her gone Jason's chances have increased at least. I don't think Jason thinks he ever had a chance of winning. Even taking some of the prize money makes that less likely.

And I don't think he pissed away any image, he was never friends with Lateysha and she would have evicted him, so he evicted her first.

The oldest winner of civilian BB was Cameron who was 32 when he won BB4, closely followed by Luke A (BB13) who was 31 and Aaron (BB12) who was 30

I loved the way Laura kept bringing her hands up and then pretending to scratch her nose , she was gagging to be first .

Did anyone else notice that Jason had his hands at his sides instead of behind his back when the alarm went, so he was able to get to the buzzer more quickly?
Not a Jason fan then? Of course he didn't cheat.
