Well that was cool. But exactly how many times was the tape speeded up?

Jesus Christ, he's fast. Take a look at his neurokinetics, they're way above normal.

I don't think the tape was speeded up at all. Look at the hands, which seem to be "normal" speed.
This reminds me of the tape of the Rubiks Cube champs, which also looked inhumanly fast.

I was disappointed that the very last part of the
video fades out, but one could tell that the stacking
pattern was in endgame. (Of course, this happens
in all Tetris endgames.)

When touch-typing contests were first held, the speed
was probably hypnotic to those that used the "hunt
and peck" method, as well.

I was looking at the hands. You folks are easily duped.

But if you want to see some real fast hands check out this guy solving the cube in 18 seconds (set to some spiffy Matrix music, Spybreak): www.speedcubing.com/chris/videos/cubing4.mpeg

I love the last flair as he spins the last stage of the cube into place. Tres cool.
