Yeah, I saw that too. I was cracking up- it's SOOO easy to tune a piano.HAH! What a hoot.. The guy giving the okay was pretty lenient, too. Pity the poor guy who had to replace those strings. I wonder if the tuning pins got loose from all that restringing.

The contestants were in Warsaw Poland as part of the game they had to find a single string on a unison left flat and tune it on a grand . Once this was done a someone would play a little Chopin and determine if the tuning was okay for them to proceed. About 3 or 4 strings got broken during this segment by different contestants. The tuner replacing the strings didn't seem very happy towards the end.
