Excel speedrun - financial modeling - entertainment purposes - modeling olympics

So normally when I think I have some novel idea (OC!) google slaps me back to my mean-reverting mediocrity before I even finish typing the Q into the search bar, autocompleting my well-trodden, unspecial dreams to the bin. So I was puzzled when I was not able to immediately find videos of h4xx0rs pwning financial models at speed on the internets. Ideally, I'd like to watch one of those screen grab views where it overlays the keystrokes so I can see how bros (sisses, zhey etc.) go aboot their modeling for maximum speed.

I'm not slow shredding up PL's anymore, but I'm sure watching a few of these would be interesting and probably illuminating. So, fellow primates, did I miss this content somewhere on the venerable youtube or have I found OC (perhaps worthless, but OC nevertheless)? Would you watch this if it existed?

Closest thing I found was all this boring talk about the "modeloff" competition which gives prizes for 1337 modeling, but no speedrun videos, or any videos of the modeling process at all, just blah blah blah interviews, award ceremonies, gahddang slideshows.
