While it is fairly good, I think the true art and challenge of these machines is to do them in one take. And from some of the cuts in the video, it seems like it was restarted several times. Editing video together to get a complete run just seems like cheating to me.

Although I’m not sure, I don’t think this is the case, or at the very least not the main reason for the cuts…

It seems certain parts of the machine are remote from one another, and they just cut out the traveling from one section to another…

For example, with the cell phones, the machine could have continued on in a completely different house for all we know. I.E at one house the machine ends by texting the phone at the beginning of the next.

Very good, but about 40% too much of balls rolling in tracks.
