    Some people have an AMAZING talent for anagrams. I feel like he buzzed before he even saw it, knowing that he'd be able to get it in the time it took the host to ask him for the answer.

      The only thing about this is he looked up the instant he buzzed, and actually didn't wait for the host to ask for the answer. just blurted it out

      @@HowToLoves You're right that he did look up but i still maintain he continued looking at the puzzle for a good long moment after he buzzed. Which is all someone with a talent for anagrams needs. He was always going to press the buzzer immediately on the start, before even seeing the word, and then worked it out. It shouldn't be allowed.

      Yeah the letters are on the table in front of him.
      Once he looks up, they’re gone.

      The contestants on University Challenge do this all the time...buzz and allow the brain to get to the answer. Brilliant minds.

    Absolutely amazing.
    And if you look closely, you can see the current score was already was 94 to 97.
    So it’s clear it was a remarkable game even before this.

      To be fair he pressed at 0:07 and then didn't take his eyes off Nick from 0:08 (Ive seen some that are still looking at it for 2 seconds after pressing) so not the worst

    There have been conundrum solves a little faster than this one, though. But after John - a maths tutor - beat James - a student and Formula 1 fan - James was red-faced for the rest of the show. Just before the end credits scrolled, he fist pumped at John! You should've taped that. It was the funniest ending of a game show ever!!

    Do you think he’s like some sort Beautiful Mind guy but with conundrums. So he knew he’d get it instantly no matter what it was so just buzzed as soon as it was revealed and figured it out in the time it took for Nick to ask him?

    • @Camberwell86
      @Camberwell86 3 роки тому +1

      @ismayb754 Місяць тому

      ​@PeteRedgrass probably because he buzzed before seeing the anagram, knowing that he would get it within the time it took Nick to ask him for the answer. Not within the spirit of the game at all and definitely not good sportsmanship.

      His self from 3hrs in the future came back before the show, there was a huge media story about it n everything! He ended up implicated in corroborations with an advanced race of aliens after that show wen the aliens knew they should pull their agent out! C.i a got to him bout ten minuts before the extraction a whole military elite unit as backup! I read they took so much tech in the wake of the massacre too, shit we've never seen that shit we cant imagine may be accomplished at our current level of science knowledge!
      The speedster conundrum solver is in a reinforced prison too, it's got faraday cages around it so the aliens cant locate the bio chip they tagged him with, but yeah hes in deep kaka man!
      So that's the "how" if it!
