My issue is you saw the guy wipe his feet before getting the cube. I hope none of those contestants had some nastry foot fungus or crap like that. I would feel bad for the judges who had to sit and watch them. My fav is the video after it, of the 3 year old Chinese girl who solves it in 114 seconds.
If I ever write a mod, there will be a choice... try to sove a rubix cube in under half an hour, or fight through a gauntlet of 100 demons. I don't foresee anyone here taking the rubix cube challenge.
