But wouldn't the probability of the second jump succeeding come into play? In this case, the chances of the team actually pulling the task off for a second time are highly unlikely- this show consists almost entirely of people failing at tasks, and this is the first time that I have ever seen anyone succeed at any variation of this particular stunt.
And while I only caught the replay, I do believe that they only managed to hit the thing by pure dumb luck.
The probability does come into play, but as it's an incalculable figure strongly dependent on luck, I look at it as a no-lose situation. Since there's no possible way to LOSE at that point -- only to win with less of a prize -- I'd go ahead and try.
