Loss for words.
Especially like the part where he was able to sort the basketballs and footballs.

Awesome!

PS1: Try and beat that Ripster!

PS2: Couldn't find anything in the past archives as "lego" is a too common word, according to Geekhack's search function.

Great! Check out the "Lego train crash" video after that one is finished.

Indeed, it is awesome. I quickly learned that this is called a "Great Ball Contraption" by its LEGO aficionados, but the generic term for the more general device of this type took me a bit longer to find - it's called a Rolling Ball Sculpture. I remember seeing one at a local mall and being curious about them.

You'd expect to see something like that for the "gumball machine" in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or something.

Very impressive.
When I learned the feature presentation above was made by a 7 years old kid, I fell off my chair.
