0:01:01 > 0:01:02Sounds easy enough...
0:01:02 > 0:01:05although not when you're blindfolded!
0:01:05 > 0:01:08'I caught up with the Sizzle Man to get a penny for his thoughts
0:01:08 > 0:01:10'on this record attempt.'
0:01:10 > 0:01:13How confident are you of grabbing this record?
0:01:13 > 0:01:16- Quite confident.- Quietly confident?
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Well, I wouldn't say put the pork on the barbecue yet,
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- but we'll find out.- I don't think it's a phrase, is it, Steve?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24- "Put the pork on the barbecue"? - Well, it's a new phrase now.
0:01:24 > 0:01:25Er, here are the rules.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Two tables need to be positioned 1.5m apart
0:01:28 > 0:01:32with the piggy bank on one and the 20 coins on the other.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34Only one coin can be picked up at a time
0:01:34 > 0:01:37and the blindfold must stay on for the whole attempt.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41The record to beat is 36.01 seconds. Let's get banking.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Steve, assume your position, please.
0:01:45 > 0:01:50OK, I'll count you in. Three, two, one...
0:01:50 > 0:01:51Piggy bank!
0:01:51 > 0:01:54'Sizzling Steve has opted for the twopence piece
0:01:54 > 0:01:55'as his coin of choice.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57'You can use any coin you like if you try this at home.'
0:01:57 > 0:01:59He's got that motion going... Excellent.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00'He needs to be quick
0:02:00 > 0:02:03'if he's going to bring home the bacon for Britain.'
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Yes, keep it up now.
0:02:05 > 0:02:06'That is one greedy pig,
0:02:06 > 0:02:09'but the Sizzler is slotting these coins away nicely
0:02:09 > 0:02:11'in the UK piggy bank.'
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Come on, Steve.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16- Come on, Steve.- Stop!- Yes!
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Oh, that felt quick.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21'But will Sizzling Steve have been quicker than his rivals
0:02:21 > 0:02:23'in the USA and Japan?'
0:02:23 > 0:02:26Ray, the quarters are in position. I'm going to count you in.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29- Mr Cherry, are you ready?- OK.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33- Three.- Two.- One.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34- Begin.- Go!
0:02:37 > 0:02:38'Cherry is looking fast.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40'He may be blindfolded
0:02:40 > 0:02:43'but he's at one with the Japanese piggy bank.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45'Maybe kneeling is helping?'
0:02:46 > 0:02:51Each is using his own countries currency - cents and Japanese yen.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55'My main man, Ray, has found his rhythm, but it's not a fast one.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58'That little American piggy is filling up quite slowly.'
0:02:58 > 0:02:59Ay!
0:02:59 > 0:03:05'Yes! Mr Cherry has stormed his attempt. Seemed very speedy to me.'
0:03:05 > 0:03:06'Just waiting for Ray.
