The Craziest Day in Rubik's Cube History

[@AlexMaass]

I was the organizer of Manhasset Fall 2015, everyone was just like wtf when we started hearing the news of Keaton and Lucas, I had a live projector up where I also put the results of River Hill alongside. This cafeteria is where I would spend my lunches cubing.

[@CubeMasterYT]

Yeah that was a crazy competition, thanks for organizing it! I'm still mad I didn't podium in Pyra tho haha

An odd turn in the story, I recently became friends with the kid who intentionally gave Collin an easy scramble, a lot can change in 8 years.

1:14 the most chill reaction to a wr

[@NoahCubez]

He knew it was a misscramble that's why he didn't react

[@jakob_cubing]

pretty sure that same thing happned with 4x4 in 2017. Feliks' wr of 21.54 had been standing for like 2 years and then it got broken 3 times in one day. Dont remember who it was, but 2 people had already beaten it when Sebastian Weyer got the first ever sub 20. (and I was stading right next to that lol). I just remember it that way, so it might be wrong, but surely worth investigating...

[@jakob_cubing]

okay maybe I should have investigated a little bit... seems like on June 10th 2017 Sebastian got his 19.41, right after that Feliks got a 21.03 in Chile and on June 11th Yi-Fan Wu from Taiwan got a 21.26. I may have remembered the last one as being on the same day due to time zones... So yea my memory wasnt quite correct, but still notewothy considering the old record was standing since october 2015

[@wnesl]

[@kostasam5]

[@amismarterthanmy6thgrader]

Max owns it now, 3.13

[@SrajalSingh]

[@CubeMasterYT]

What was the Collin burns 5.21 scramble

[@CuBOYid]

When I read the title I thought that cubing history may have repeated itself haha 😂. Great video tho

[@killerboss2346]

Just beaten by Max Parker at 3:13

[@bagtae]

what is scramble???

[@diegorodriguez9926]

Yes my 30 dollars a hour isn’t enough! 😢

[@andrewsilver2316]

Actually, the average is more prestigious

[@CubeMasterYT]

With cubers maybe, but in general think it has to be single. They get more views and media coverage, and are what most non-cubers are interested in :)
