Perfect Push-up?

The workout of the day on Friday for the CrossFit main site was the following:

50 super-strict push-ups in one set
5,000-m row

Then, in addition to the usual post time to comments, they added a wager:

Upload video of push-ups to YouTube with your name and "CrossFit Push-up Contest 140221" in title and then post link to comments by 5 p.m. PT Friday. Prizes of $1,000, $750 and $500 for 1st, 2nd and 3rd-place efforts. Technique trumps speed.

1. Low camera perpendicular to athlete's body.
2. No perturbance of midline. No movement in hip, knee or head.
3. Use CFJ The Push-up as reference.

On today's Rest Day post, they awarded the top three videos submitted with what they considered a perfect push-up. How do you think they stack up?

1st Place

2nd Place
