I am very good at scrabble but can't finish a crossword puzzle. I just watched the "crossword movie" and compared it with the "scrabble" documentary. The scrabble geeks are depicted in much worse shape. It's hopefully all in the editing. :-)

Oh, well I'm sure he's very good. Even my dad can't do them that fast & he's been doing the crosswords for years. He'll be the 1st to admit the The NY Times are The Hardest~
Some of you obviously aren't very crossword savvy. The NY Times puzzle gets progressively harder with each day of the week, meaning Monday is the easiest... I can do them in less than 10 min usually. And I'm not on crack like this guy clearly is.
Why does everything has to be about the fastest way of doing something? I love crosswords and sudoku, but I hate doing them as fast as I can. I want to enjoy them with a cup of coffee.
Tyler is a 4 time American crossword puzzle tournament champion. This is the real deal. check out his wbesite in the about the video section. He is also featured in the documentary Wordplay.
it's not just crosswords either... he walks around all day with a puzzle book and just churns out solutions whenever he has a few moments of spare time
how about in a couple dozen of years when alzeimers and dementia strike in all of our old age? all of us puzzle enthusiasts shall be sitting high and mighty. on topic: i can get about 5 minutes on a monday puzzle with about 15 for tuesday and wednesday. thursday to saturday that's a different story. i won't even dare touch the sunday (mostly because i don't want to shell out $5 for the sunday paper).
Come on Tyler, some of us know that Mondays are joke. If you have been doing these crossers since before girls, then you already know the answers and the clues, it's more a matter of recall. Do a Friday puzzle or a puzzle from the LaTimes or Washpost. Man up,engineer!

Well if you read down a little zero, several people posted that he faked it and how easy that is. Read before you type please... (And would someone include some proper grammer. Good lord!)
Has anyone eaven thought that he was just makeing stuff up while he goes? (do you know how easy it is to look like your doing a crossword. :D ) No-one checked the paper, at least not in this video. I say fake.. what about you?
you'll never know if he is cheating or not. he doesn't actually show you the completed crossword.. as far as i'm concerned he could've just put in random letters and pretend that he did it. we'll never know though.
gosh i cant even read that fast lol let alone answer question but yeah its really annoying how loud he breaths nd crap lol oh god i jus saw his face!!!!!!!!!!! he looks like my old SAC counsler
everyone is sooo stupid here. HE DOES NOT CHEAT HE IS KEEPING A TIMER ON HIS IPHONE ITS CALLED HE IS LOOKING AT THE QUESTIONS ON THE SIDE OF THE CROSSWORD PUZZLE. if you said he cheated you just made youself look like a complete idiot here
