I bet you started reconstructing these as soon as Rob posted the thread. ;)
 
1st off, incredible average but so many locks. Crazy.

2nd, I bet he started earlier. ~5mins is not enough time even if you are the Brest.
 
what the hell happened in the fourth solve? Can someone explain it?

You mean the end? Looks just like taking corners out of the LL and putting them back in where they belong. Beginner's method, really :p

Read the "View as executed", not the version with cancellations. (R' D' R) U' (R' D R) solves one LL corner and then (R' D' R) U2 (R' D R) solves the remaining ones.

that 4th solve...how...I'll never understand Feliks' last layer skills.

Neither will I since they're so fast. I have a good Idea of the how for the fourth solve happened though.

After the 3rd f2l pair, he has a garbage f2l case but "good orientation edges" so he inserts the f2l edge like MGLS. The ll edges are phased correctly so he spams a commutator insertion to solve the corners.

Wow, that recognition and execution makes it seem like he memorized these corner insertions...
