Max cleared the first obstacle, the rolling log, in just two steps. He leaped to the middle of the log and jumped again before it could even spin with pure speed.
Collective gasps could be heard from the spectators, and his viewers also didn't believe what they had just seen.
— Duck walk vs jump, which one is faster? No one needs to ask
— This man destroyed our common sense many times. What's next?
— I thought clearing the course of the day in under a minute was impossible. But… Look at that. 5 seconds only to clear the first obstacle.
— Now comes the second obstacle that took a lot of time, throttle pegs. Will he be able to clear it at a fast speed?
Indeed. Unlike the rolling log, throttle pegs needed grip strength and carefulness. If one was too fast, they could slip before inserting the peg into the hole. And unlike the first obstacle, the second obstacle needed to be cleared according to the rules.
