That's equal parts hilarious and impressive. At least the first one. Some of the others were hilarious and embarrassing: ▶ this video
There are and were all kinds of competitions. The wild category is probably the most obvious one regarding no size limitations, but the generic "combined demo" category which is very often present at competitions is also usually without restrictions (but it must run on the competition machine). See link for wild demos (e.g. ▶ this video :)) or link for "combined demos"
I've seen this technique used with transparencies on an overhead projector before. Things get interesting when the fields aren't aligned exactly. ▶ this video
