Cleanup
edithope someone otehr thatn me can wikify this.. very non-encyclop language Tiksustoo 11:25, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
I want to clarify a point on this page. Fred Kaps won the Grand Prix three times, but Piet Forton won the close-up card category three times, as well. I think it best to say that Kaps is the only one to win the GRAND PRIX rather than the championship just to disambiguate this point.

I have attempted some cleanup, but didn't want to attack the abundance of text yet, so i'll leave that to someone else, or maybe come back to it myself. Cras26 (talk) 18:43, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
Long Pour Salt
editThe article says "The finale was a version Roy Benson's Long Pour Salt. Both Benson and Kaps handling of the trick were superb. Benson used dialogue interspersed with a syncopated drum beat. Benson pretends to be bored as the salt just keeps pouring and pouring. He looks at his watch while the music acts like it’s stuck as it plays one note waiting and waiting for the salt to finish. Finally it does. Benson shows his hands empty and runs off stage." 'handling ... suberb' sounds like a point of view (which I agree with BTW) and should be referenced. This description of FISM must have come from somewhere ... but it's not credited.Centretear (talk) 10:24, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
It is not a point of view, it is a description of the video of Benson doing the salt trick. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.104.60.57 (talk) 08:19, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
