Simon sticks a wooden spoon into a drill

Here's a description of the contestant's attempt. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to illustrate it.

Simon decides to place the ball in a basin full of water, and then use a wooden spoon inserted into a drill to cause the water to circulate, thus making the ball roll around within it. In the studio, Lasse is unwilling to accept the argument that Simon was not affecting the ball directly by operating the drill, and accepts only the length of the ball's roll up to the point where he turns it on. This gives Simon a roll of just 2.4 seconds, earning him third place.
