You'd have a fun argument on your hands if you tried to hold it on the motors yourself. Just used a compressed air can and turn it upside down. Same thing, safer, and probably faster too.
Well if one had a water block that could easily/quickly clamp over a motor, they could set up a water cooling system, and then have the radiator sitting in a cooler full of dry ice. Maybe even have it set up so a robot battery could be used to run the pump...

That seems like it's so much overkill though.
