I saw this live when they first showed it. It's a shame, too, because he was actually pretty good.
It was crazy. He tanked it, and I swear to God I though he had killed himself right then and there on national television. He got back up, and walked around - embarrassed. I was thinking to myself, "Holy shit, that guy just MOTORED HIS FACE into a hardwood floor, and he's acting like he just made a little mistake and boo-hoo he won't win the contest. Big fucking deal. You should be dead!"
I swear I saw this guy on Leno durring the Stupid Human Tricks shit, and he did the same thing, flung his face into the ground. This was before this show was on the air so I'm pretty sure he did it on purpose as a joke.
