Peter shows up at 8 seconds into the video, a moment or so after Havok caused the explosion. Time basically stops for him and he steps onto frame at 17-18 seconds. He hangs out for a bit and notices the explosion coming out of the basketball court under the blackbird copter at 28 seconds. Then he runs in and does the whole mansion scene. The explosion flares out and everyone is saved at 2:44 minutes.
So yes, for 2 minutes and 16 seconds, he watched the explosion going off around him. Keep in mind that we don't see him for 9 seconds and time is already under his influence. Then he literally just stands there for an additional 10 seconds noticing Cyclops and the original team on their joyride and stuff. When he finally runs off after 20 seconds of letting the mansion explode in his eyes, he leaves his twinkie and Xavier's card suspended in the air.
His speed is ridiculous.

Video timing and time in movie are two separate things. In that scene they were happening simultaneously as shown.
Also and it’s a big also,
At time stamp 30 seconds in the video he is right at the explosion already moving people. Again you are misrepresenting facts saying no he was hanging out for 2 minutes watching it before doing anything.
One thing to note about the Flash courtroom scene is that Barry seemingly chooses to end the moment, which means it could have potentially lasted longer. Of course, how much longer would be pure speculation.

CW Flash can make a person facepalm when he gets tagged by people he really shouldn't though. Realistically, pretty much all of his fights with non-Speedsters should go along similar lines to this (with the exception of people like Hazard and her weird probability powers):
But you know that if the plot demands it, he will somehow get tagged lol.

Yeah, if a nuclear explosion is literally frozen from your perspective, and only starts to show visible movement several minutes later (from your perspective) when you start to tire out and slow down, you are going ridiculously fast.

Also worth noting, none of the other speedsters could stay in flash time anywhere as long as he could, or bring as many people into flash time as he could. he brought 3 people into flash time.
If we based freezing explosions off speed, the X Wing Explosion was never frozen to QS, it was always expanding, this nuclear explosion was literally flat out frozen in time.

IMO, Peter is 3rd on this list at this point. Flash's feat from the last episode was just stupid.
80% of the episode literally took place in the split second after a nuke was detonated, with the Speedsters trying to figure out a solution while the rest of the world was literally frozen for them. And by the end of the episode, when Barry manages to save the day, the blast had only traveled a couple of feet. And it only started showing signs of movement at all when they started getting tired and slowing down.
It makes Peter's mansion save feat look like a cakewalk.

Sounds like DC is doing what it always does, massively overpower their heroes and then have them at like complete retards 99% of the time to provide drama.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
That's kind of hard to do, because virtually the entire episode is the feat. The nuke detonates probably about 5 minutes into the episode, and Barry only saves the day with probably about 5 minutes of the episode to go. And all of that happened in only a fraction of a second in real time, as the nuke's blast wave had barely traveled any distance.
Basically, imagine the QS mansion explosion scene, but instead of doing it for like 3 minutes, the Flash did it for about half an hour.
