Many of us can lay claim to having solved a Rubik’s cube before, although the secret to my success lay more in my ability to swap the stickers around than to solve the complex problem of which way to twist. A win is a win though, and they can’t take that away from me.
This guy, teenager Collin Burns, was forced to play by the rules during an official World Cube Association (WCA) event. No problem mate, as Burns smashed the world record and completed the cube in 5.25 seconds.
What happens after that is a whole lot of high pitched shrieking as onlookers realise the record has been broken. This from the Independent:
the body [WCA] was able to confirm this is “the new official WCA world record for the 3x3x3 single solve category”.
“To our best knowledge, it has been performed in an official competition, with all the rules being followed, even the scramble has been checked for its correctness,” an official said.
Well played young man, here’s hoping you can handle the fame and fortune that are sure to come your way.
