In the event of a tie for the record, each tied record breaker gets a second attempt at raising the record.

If, after two attempts, no competitor has upped the record, the record is entered as a tie, with both names listed.

Prize money is divided among the competitors who tied.
To award the belt chain, the combined total from the first and second attempts is added together.

If still tied, the highest success percentage determines the winner.
