It felt extra fake - the cherry picked people lacking rudimentary mechanical skills, using the ~$50K set of Franka Emika arms vs their default 'budget' ALOHA 2 grippers, the sheer luck that helped the robots put the belt on instead of removing it from the pulley. The trick was in that the belt was too tight for an average human to put on with brute force, and disabling the tensioner or using tricks would require better than average mechanical skills their specially chosen 'random humans' lacked.
