Igor extinguishes a candle

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

Igor tapes a hosepipe to the side of the candle. Unfortunately, he does not realise that because he taped the hosepipe parallel against the candle, that any air that travels through it will blow directly upwards, and not across the flame. Nevertheless, he attempts to extinguish the flame by blowing into the hosepipe, then by connecting a foot-pump, and then by attaching it to the vacuum cleaner. In the final few seconds of the task, Igor runs up to the candle and blows it out manually. Igor therefore uses his entire time to extinguish the flame from a distance of 54cm. He earns five points, because Ivan wants to acknowledge Igor's Sisyphean effort.
