Believe it or not, he's trying an ancient pain-relief method for rheumatism... apparently immersion in sand relieves the symptoms, which makes sense as his body weight would be supported without pressure on the joints.
More fascinating facts later! |

So this issue came up at Discovery Science Center 2009. Andrew Nelson stopped the timer, and his Square-1 ended in such a way that it was (1,0)/ off. In words: the top (it might have been the bottom, but that is irrelevant here) was (1,0) from being solved, and the slice was turned. I called DNF, and Andrew agreed, but another judge said that it should only be a +2. His claim for this was that (1,0) still counts as a solved state (less than 45°), therefore the Square-1 is only 1 misalignment off (the slice, naturally, being 180° off).

What event do you think this query was about? |

I would have to say a dob's a dob by any other name. Wonder if they have to remove their feathers for the anthem.  |
