International Differences
The Pyramid in the original American series was red and blue before being changed to red and black for the 2008 revival. In Britain, the Pyramid is black and white, whilst in Australia, it is red and white. In the 2008 American revival, a 'scoring zone' was introduced, four tiers from the summit, indicated by a white dotted line. If a contender got their feet above this line they received five points. Also, for the revival of the American series, the event ends immediately upon one contender reaching the top of the Pyramid. The Swedish name for this event was Pyramiden.

Famous quotes containing the word differences:
“No sooner had I glanced at this letter, than I concluded it to be that of which I was in search. To be sure, it was, to all appearance, radically different from the one of which the Prefect had read us so minute a description.... But, then, the radicalness of these differences ... these things ... were strongly corroborative of suspicion.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
