[saxkidatlg]

at 1:58 the guy is thinking "shit ive just been beaten by a young kid". and he is so smug when he gets the nine letter words.

[1910ayrunited]

[dylandior123]

[allogicid]

part 2 music is ANNOYING!!!

[zubeelink]

What a cocky little b*stard ;)

[jaryd12345]

This isn't jealousy but... don't you just wana punch his smug little face in when he leans back and looks like he's having an orgasm after getting a good word in.

[SpiritmanProductions]

@jaryd12345 Yeah, but wouldn't you have done the same at 11? :D

[aGxpredator]

[SpiritmanProductions]

@PLAYSTATIONBLOKE

[cwn89015]

@SpiritmanProductions I got 828:

100+9=109,

109x8=872,

872-50=822,

822+6=828.

[SpiritmanProductions]

@cwn89015

(100-8) x 9 = 828. ;)

[Gillerz2009]

@PLAYSTATIONBLOKE video is only 8:20 long?

[YNeedPeopleLikeMe]

was it only me who watched the girl! she is hot!

[TheCarrShow]

this is why only adults are on game shows. Kids are just too good at games

[simbaslover]

omg for the decomposed word i got it befor he did WITH OUT PAUSING THE VID!!!!!!!!!!!

[stuartw12345612]

@simbaslover, hmmm and how old are you?! probably older than this kid and therefore shame on you for only beating him once!!

[FurryNinjaTurtle]

wow this kid has got some skill :P

[SpiritmanProductions]

@Absoluvely

There's also PORCINI, which are ceps (wild mushrooms), especially as an item on a menu. ;)

[Absoluvely]

Anyone got better than 'porno' for five at 0:14?

[NeilG42]

the best ting he did was drop that 625 !!

[gtdp]

Omental?! I'm a 21 year old language student and I'd never even heard of that word until now... man, what an impressive kid.

[DeformedMelonFilms]

Who was the guy that kept going good boy!

[halfmaster1]

He's on fantastic contraption. No wonder he is so good.

[theanglez86]

[KITTEH10]

[Rockstarmacca]

Evil stare

[xWANDERMANx]

[kinjai]

(100-8)*9=828

[jamesclarke1994]

at 3.28 is that the guy from the meat and two veg video?

[MSkatea]

HOW???

[GarlicBreadHead]

This kid goes to my school. I'm in the sixth form and i think he's in year 8 now. I see him in libary 'having fun' doing A level maths stuff while he's mates play on games ahaa

[TheMogerman]

@GarlicBreadHead You're in the 6th form and you use the phrase "...while HE'S mates play.." Maybe it's you that should be spending more time in the library. ; )

[Makinsy08]

numbers game at 7:10 ish (100-8)*9 = 828. Got it in about 2 seconds. Guess that makes me better than him................not

[Bloodygore1]

i know that kid, he is really good at that sort of thing apperently.

[hobbieman100]

@Bloodygore1 Well done, lol

[minimalist1984]

Missed poofter when you declared hooter

[TheAppleMan100]

[krym0re]

I have actually never heard the full The One and Only song....

[molldrumlish]

For the numbers at 6.58 . 6+3=9*100=900 9*8=72 900-72=828

[favaad1]

[ryanhickers]

A smart kid. Very intelligent.

[seasoner13]

[DrivenUpTheWall1]

Wow Wow wow !! little dude , RESPECT !!!!

[JLLOYDAZ]

on the last numbers, the kid used the 8 twice

[SpiritmanProductions]

No, the first use of the eight was in the other player's method. Pay attention! lol

[stifflerjuniour]

i think he did same with the 10

[saladsfriend]

@JLLOYDAZ don't try and outsmart him haha

[musson8er]

clever kid. Wish i had a brain like him. :)

[formulacountdown]

i.e. 373, 473

[formulacountdown]

Why don't you declare Kai's totals for the numbers games?

[DeanOfBloons]

Hey Kladdy :] It's Dean-o

[jackw7153]

is it just me or does he look at tad like chesney hawkes

[SpiritmanProductions]

Are you sure you're not just thinking that because that's who sings the second track on this video?

[formulacountdown]

Who are you talking to?

[SpiritmanProductions]

@formulacountdown

If you click View All Comments, you'll see the thread. ;)

[formulacountdown]

How on earth can he manage to play countdown, do his homework and still get time for school?

Formula Countdown

[jackw7153]

@formulacountdown two words ... CHUCK NORRIS

[07towers8]

6:29 the other guy's reaction

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

to be honest, he was basically lucky (i notice he didn't come up with any obscure words.

[max29906]

@Wheeloffortunefan999

He was very consistent with the letters rounds throughout, which matters more than getting the occasional flashy word. And you can hardly say INCAPABLE and THIRTEENS are easy.

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

BUT that's my opinion, (he was bright, i'm not gonna deny that, but it would've been more impressive had he came up with a couple more obscure words.

[Afronanny]

Smart kid. I'm very impressed

[ChainedString]

I know him from MENSA, nice guy. :)

[Jamo18]

hahah, im lovin the looks on all his opponents faces goin "omg ive just got beaten by a child..."

[allanoliver1690]

love the music

[Pinnertop]

Goodness what a clever lad. I feel rather sorry for those adults up against him! There are good and clever young people about, and all power to them.

[Chris246t8kr]

That kid should be very proud of himself! I don't even know some of those words and I'm doing higher English! Good show!

[l00l20r2]

6:57 was:

(100+50) x 6 = 900

8 x 9 = 72

900 - 72 = 828

Im one up on numbers but he would absolutely murder me on the Words, I suck at words lol

[SpiritmanProductions]

(100-8) x 9 = 828. ;)

[l00l20r2]

wow, you just pwnt me

[SpiritmanProductions]

soz. :D

[theanglez86]

how old is he?

[weemac118]

11

OMG

[theanglez86]

2:20 LORNASBUM

Lorna's Bum! LOL

[SaintHannah93]

i dont even know what some of those words mean!

[obtyropil]

cool mix of the music! :)

[SpiritmanProductions]

thanks. have you downloaded the hq version of the track?

[hotrodsteeler19]

i think we would all get OWNED by this guy

[grubbster1]

He will have no problems getting a good job with his intelligence

[iiGeorgee]

h ges to my school an plays in my footy team he scored 6 today

[GeorgeSmithFS]

Yeah!!.. He is one amazing football player!! :)

[Gamatoby]

how smug he looked when he got INCAPABLE (among others) lol

[SpiritmanProductions]

I would, too. ;)

[MullingarJet]

Watching that is just pure great

Fair play!

[SpiritmanProductions]

You obviously don't understand the rules. Players still get points for being close, as long as they correctly declare what they got.

[MindstormXL]

As far as I know its 10 points for being dead on with a point deducted for each number they're off isn't it?

[SpiritmanProductions]

The numbers game scoring goes like this:

Get the exact target: 10 points

Get within 5 of the target: 7 points

Get within 10 of the target: 5 points

[Chasssers]

Someone has spent to much time emeorising the dictionary

[xDaalleeeeX]

around 7 minutes:

50x3 = 150, x6 = 900 - (9x8) = 828

[SpiritmanProductions]

Nice one. ;)

[kinjai]

@xDaalleeeeX (100-8)*9=828

[kinjai]

@xDaalleeeeX 

[CrazyLew123]

OWNED!!!!

[foz32]

look at 2:00 that is james bruce. english teacher and my daughters form tutor at the time at firth park community arts college. what a great young man kai is:)))

[WePoopHere]

7:12 is wrong

[SpiritmanProductions]

How is it wrong? He declared 827, and he got 827.

[Hodnux]

Played this lad earlier an paterous [online countdown thing]. he managed 3 9s in beating me 110-66. Very good sport too.

[Hodnux]

Numbers game at 6:40, I saw that one and my jaw dropped.

[Diviniaro]

This vid is random, but well made, I must say! :P

[Halopediah]

Nicejoint 8:18 ha

[SpiritmanProductions]

[XxLauraTamayoxX]

[XxLauraTamayoxX]

[drongovids]

Kai will be back on ours screen on the 15th of January, competing in the 'championship of champions'.

[MarksieBoy]

Absolutely Amazing this Boy, he is definitely an octochamp

[boy1887]

could you post the shows when he gets to the finals; i don't live in the uk and thus can't see them. cheers

[drongovids]

Have you tried the channel 4 website?

[Marthinjo09]

OMG!!..he is really really genius!!

[chixychix12]

smarty pants.

but hes cute.

[hatton02]

Quality video. Well done.

[countdownisdabest]

his words are in rythm with the music

[SpiritmanProductions]

Some are, but then I got bored as it takes much longer to put together. The tempo of the remix is 128.8759 beats/min (due to the length of the main sample), and that means 11.639 frames per beat - hard work, in other words!

[o0samotech0o]

Official Kai Laddiman Channel :)

-Sam & Kai

[countdownisdabest]

good remix of the countdown theme. could u put it onto its own individual video with out any body talking

[SpiritmanProductions]

Thanks. I will.

[drongovids]

Nice editing, what software do you use?

[SpiritmanProductions]

Thanks, glad you like it.

I used ULead MediaStudio Pro 8, Xara Xtreme, Goldwave, and a Countdown lettering application that I wrote myself.

I composed the theme remix using Reason 4.
