Simon is revealed as a chicken whisperer

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

Simon throws breadcrumbs onto the mat and calmly encourages the birds with his voice. With five chickens standing on the mat, and only one more foot required, another chicken miraculously places just one of its feet on the edge of the mat and remains standing that way for three seconds. Simon is thus able to complete the task in just 52 seconds, earning first place.
