In all seriousness though, much has been made of Victor the Harvard-educated lawyer, when in fact, the final roadblock had little to do with pure brainpower.
The task didn't require any real logic/problem-solving; it was about memory and performing under pressure. Had TAR producers decided to ask slightly
different questions about the previous tasks performed, I could just as easily see Jaime or Luke winning, with Victor OTOH having some mental block regarding a
specific task. In other words, the challenge was more about luck and calm under duress (which is what hurt Luke the most) than it was about cognitive skills.

the challenge was more about luck and calm under duress (which is what hurt Luke the most) than it was about cognitive skills.Given his COEKVOH performance, if it was about cognitive skills, Luke would still be stuck in Hawaii today. |
