    Random chance gambling. All throughout history there have been many statistical anomalies and if I joined them in such a competition, I’d have just as good a chance at winning as anyone else.

    Playing a random collection of video games that no one in the tournament has played or heard of before to 100% completion.

    I’m just really good at learning quickly.

      Blind game tournaments are already a thing, you should give them a shot. I’ve never competed but I like Kusogrande, the bad video games tournament.

    I’m probably one of the best 1000 whistlers alive but I suspect people used to be far better whistlers on average so I’m losing so hard.

    Did they pick me because I was one of the worlds greatest at something who have ever lived?

    Must be something like chess-boxing but with half a dozen more sports mixed in. Chess-box-deadlift-slalom-300m rifle-shot put-canoeing-shrimp taming-minigolf.

    I’ve always liked the idea of a rando being in events with the worlds best so we can get an idea of how much better the pros are than average. I’m down to be that rando in any event, I’ll give it everything I’ve got. Once.

      I saw a video on youtube from a guy with a running channel or something like that.

      On that video he was talking about race walking before introducing his guest, an olympic medalist in race walking, and commenting how crazy fast these people at the top are, he was mentioning a bunch of the dude’s long distance times and to put them into perspective he compared them to some of his times. The both had similar times, but he had them running while the other had them walking.

      According to lore anyone over 30 who is still a virgin becomes a wizard and that is why there are so few wizards about.

      So your competition would be a wizards battle. No offense but I’d buy tickets to that event.
