A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !!
Well, I have to say that I’d already seen this video last Christmas! My sister bought one of this cubes and she drove all the house crazy. She also drove her friends crazy, everyone wanted to solve it but none of us could. My sister didn’t surrender and started to look for explaining videos in youtube. This was one of them and I saw it because she needed me for translating!
But anyway, she didn’t solve it either, and now the cube may be lost in some drawer… Maybe I will dig it up some day…
It is amazing!!!!!! I have never been able to solve this puzzle and now I’m astonished seeing how this boy solves the mystery only with algorithms. So the punch line of this puzzle is that everything we are, everything we do is based on Mathematics. And in this video this sentence has more sense. I promise that I’m going to try to solve the Rubik’s Cube although it takes me long time, I have to start little by little
I have seen this video with real astonishment!! It seems to be easygoing if you take notes about the rules he gives, unfortunately, it isn’t.
One of my childhood’s memories is this cube and how dreadful was trying to solve it. Most of the times it made me feel tense. Owing to this, I haven’t made an attempt to do it again, but maybe I should watch more videos and prove it, shouldn’t I?
Oh my god! I hate this game. It brings me memories of my childhood when I used to get desperate trying to solve this puzzle.
I don´t know how many times I tried to do it but I never was able to achieve it. In fact, I would have thought that it´s impossible to solve it if I wouldn´t seen my brother to achieve it. Then I felt so frustrated that, to tell the truth, I decided to do some trick removing some piece from one place to put it in another place when nobody looked at me. But, in the end this made feel so stupid that I decided to forget the cube forever.
As for the video, at first sight it seems “easy” to solve the puzzle if you follow the instructions. However I don´t want even to try it. Never again!.
I was amazed watching the video. I think that I’m going to buy one Rubick’s Cube in order to prove the real efficiency.
When I was a child I had one similar game (I can’t remember the name), and I used to play with it when I was on holiday so the video made thing about summer time playing with my friends in the beach. It would have been easier if we had had one video as the previous one so logical and simple, and yet so effective, because we could have solved the cube easily.
Incredible! When I was a child my cousin gave me a Rubik’s cube, but I wasn’t able to solve it. Some years later, I tried it again, because I love this kind of games, which makes you think a lot. In this case, I did a search in the internet and found several webs, which explained how to solve the Rubik’s cube with a few specific movements. Some of them are really difficult. For this reason, I was surprised when I saw this boy solving the cube easily.
I think I’ll try it again, using this boy’s advice. I hope I achieve it.
