It would be interesting to see his heartbeat along with the movie. It's a pity they didn't show it.

Anyway, it's impressive for me how he can forget all those people watching him.

He is by now very used to performing for the media. This is because of doing lots of live TV shows and always massive attention when he is performing in a competition.
Twice I lay side by side in competition with him (we had the highest announced performance) . Cameras from all direction on both of us. The first time I bailed out under the stress of the media at 4 minutes . The second time in Wiesbaden I crapped out around 6 minutes and then still had time to watch Tom do 2 minutes more static. (so got second place ). So you get used to it .....
