At a speedy four to five seconds per apple, it doesn't take him long to rack up an entire bucket of the fibrous fruit's skin. He sticks the apple on the drill in his left hand, the peeler in his right, and holds the two together. The apple rotates smoothly, thanks to the drill's natural motion, and the peeler goes to town without any additional work on the man's part. See the amazingness for yourself:

The coolest part might be the way the peels end up. Each apple's skin unfurls as one long strip, which will undoubtedly make you feel like a pro if you decide to try this out.
Wary about mixing power tools with your healthy treats? We don't blame you. Try the Kuhn Rikon Original 4-Inch Swiss Peeler ($6.63, amazon.com) instead. It may not be quite as fast as the power drill, but it's a Women's Health staff favorite and will get the job done right.
