I knew which video this would be! Its a brilliant summary indeed!

I feel for Fractal though, he came so close!

Its a classic conflict of interests. But I believe he is a sportsman guy and truly was happy for the kid. Kinda felt bad though, but this is how things goes. Either way, congratz to both.
