Did you catch the Scripps National Spelling Bee finals on Saturday Friday? The annual event was held at the Grand Hyatt Washington over the weekend, and 13-year-old Sameer Mishra of Indiana took home top honors, which includes a $30,000 cash prize from Scripps, a $2,500 U.S. Savings Bond and a complete reference library from Merriam-Webster, a $5,000 cash prize from Sigma Phi Epsilon Educational Foundation, and a reference library worth $3,800 from Encyclopedia Britannica. That’s quite a haul.

Via DCeiver, check out this classic bit of spelling bee video where earlier on in the final round, Mishra briefly believes he has actually been asked to spell the word “numbnut.” Stick through to the post-game analysis where he explains that his concern had been that “numbnut” has many different possible spellings. Best National Spelling Bee champion ever?
