He set a world record in his secong competition?!? Is Feliks even human?!?

[@graham_lively1732]

Keith Masongsong this was also when records could actually be beaten like that

[@SpeedcubingCentralspeedcuber]

well to be honest it was also considering that his area did not have competitions for a long time. So it was a while until his part of the world had a competition.

[@grease_551]

No it's a robot

It makes me happy to see his success and also to see your great support for him. It's very inspiring.

That's Tim major

[@ManlyGaga]

Feliks thought he was going to have a high five

[@inssniper297]

Woah, so Feliks broke the single that day, and then beat it again, and broke the average wr? Shouldn't that be a wr for beating 3 wr in a day

[@debeastdueeast]

Wait, but if you give him a WR for breaking 3 WR within a day, shouldn't you give him a WR for breaking 4 WR in a day? Wait, if you give him 5 WR for breaking 3 WR within a day, plus the WR for that WR, shouldn't you give him a WR for having a WR WR or 3 WR? What?!?

[@inssniper297]

no, if he breaks the world record multiple times, only his latest one counts

[@debeastdueeast]

Kevin Li I think you misunderstand me - your original comment was that he should get a World Record for getting 3 World Records within a day. I replied with a joke, saying that if he should get a World Record for getting 3 World Records in a day (Which would be 4 World Records, 3+1), then he should get a World Record for getting 4 World Records within a day (The 3 initial World Records + the World Record for getting 3 World Records), which would then mean that he should have 5 world records. And so on ad infinitum.

This has really inspired me! I hope to one day meet Feliks Zemdegs! You are just amazing sir! :D

[@blaecccuebbler7711]

In 2 days he’s in my home town in switzerland doing a competition lol

[@andres3019181510]

Oh men!!!!!! Feliks is my inspiration to be speedcuber, I have kind of the same age when I buy first cube, and I have been speedcubing for more or less 1 year and I am sub 15. My dream is to reach him and have the same spectacular times he have all the competitions. :)

[@nortykid3017]

Hello David. I love the music at the beginning of the video. What is the name of that song?

[@ZemdegsD]

The song is called 'Soneta Nemieram' . It was written by a Latvian rock band I was in back in the eighties.

[@nortykid3017]

@@ZemdegsD Awesome! Thanks for responding.

[@blaecccuebbler7711]

I was proud of sub 40 in 3 months until I watched this... :(

[@spaztech]

I'm so late to this game, forty years old, started cubing this past December just to say I could solve one.. Currently rocking a solid 3.5 minute solve on the 3x3 and learning to hate "parity errors" on the 4x4. To see Feliks killing the 7 second barrier is awesome and humbling at the same time.. I'll be happy when I learn F2L and can get below 2 minutes.

[@hoanggiangha6407]

He solve 3x3 Cube faster than I solve 2x2 cube.

[@supercoolmunkee]

He said ya sure if anyone can beat his world record, and Mats Valk followed his true champion words.

[@MarkManuel15]

Mats did it only 0.11 seconds faster, and plus, Mats holds only 1 world record, while Feliks holds quite a few.

[@MarkManuel15]

Look it up again Mats holds only one world record. He used to hold those but they've been beaten. Feliks holds right know 5, more than anyone in the cubing history.

[@MarkManuel15]

Feliks also beat his 4x4 world record, and beat him in the competations and holds way more records. So who's better?

[@MarkManuel15]

I know Mats is pretty good but I support Feliks!

[@iso8556]

Marcos Manuel are you some gayshit or something?

[@pawanbasera431]

Who is seeing it in 2020

[@IDK-bg6im]

Took almost a decade for the world record to be half of that

[@EpicLitez]

awesome video

[@jeremiebazinet]

Wow i really like this video. Its full of hope and purity. You can make sure im taking my cube right now!

[@inssniper297]

Feliks started subbing 20s after just 3 months, I've inky been cubing for 3 months and I'm still in the 30s. I hope he realized when he was 13 he would one day be one of the most famous solvers in history

[@garnerthecube]

Now he’s gotten a solve about half that time! 3.28

[@Matthewc4311]

You should do one called "The road to greatness" And then show every single world record he has (Shortened of course) and then show his most recent one at the end

[@CubeMontster17]

Hey fazdad1, sorry to keep on bugging you about the musci you use, but what are the songs at the beginning and end of this vid? and are they available for download... and where? :P

[@sune7482]

How did he get to sub 20 into two months? I'm barely sub 23 into about a year if I am correct.

[@Cheater1231000]

David, i have a question to him, is only practising the best way to get faster? Solving and solving again? Or did he do something else?

[@RoSs3897]

is Zemdegs part of his first name or is it his middle name? i just ask because you said that his surname is Latvian. it kind of confused me a little bit.

[@1fastcubesolver]

that's a fantastic video, you should be proud of your son.

[@adamriza9460]

He is one of the speedcuber that inspired me at cubing

[@KongXJ168]

please will you announce it somehow so that i can be sure that im there to meet him?

i don't find video in youtube have you a link?

[@Thejeditusken2]

what type of cube was feliks using as his main before the lubix ultimate and dayan zanchi? i can't tell if it's a c4u cube or a alpha v because it has c4u stickers but sounds like an alpha v

[@stephenbrush1042]

At 7:27 an image of a speed solving book titled "SPEEDSOLVING THE CUBE" pops up for half a second. Was that a book Feliks used?

[@brunodu92]

who's the song in the beginning of the video??

[@Guinea.Pig-Gaming]

This boy was built for cubing.

[@MrCar651]

1 question...what technik do you use to solve cube...I use f2l,2 look OLL and 2 look PLL do you do that aswell or not? (if you do ofcuorse you don't use 2 look )

[@potofazherbaizan]

Feliks! Du bist immer fantastich!

[@Thejeditusken2]

@fazdad1 are there any seen videos of him solving a magic?

[@hoaiang7704]

I have watched this video sooo many times

[@supercoolmunkee]

So how many other talents does Feliks has beside cubing and playing piano. Maybe you should get a film of him doing some piano stuff, I would love to see that and hopefully other people as well! I think it be awesome if you do upload some piano videos that Feliks can do.

[@CubeChampions9999]

Where did you bought the 3x3 on 0:43 and the 2x2x2 on 1:48 from??

[@r.p.cubers4900]

I've been cubing for 2 months and my average is 18.42 ao100, and my best is 15.24, but this was before the internet was a major part of our lives and the algs and stuff has improved drastically so he is god.

[@BlazertronGames]

How?! I've been cubing on and off for like 7 years and my average is around 25, lol. Do you know full oll?

[@HermanAnimation]

Things like this slightly discourage me from cubing. My best is 25.56 seconds achieved in about a year of solving, most of the time I didn't even practice. Even though I am not a good speedcuber I try to beat my times. That feeling when you beat your record is just great!

[@powerofthecube]

@itsdemisselb1 dont worry, fridrich method should probably come next. and btw, pll, oll, f2l are different stages of solving. fridrich is really good b/c it has 2-look pll, 2-look oll, and intuitive 1 step f2l. i can get at around 30 seconds, but ive also just started cubing again.

[@DaniGuhong]

I dont understand one thing , in 0:41 , the photo of feliks's channel is of the Australian championchip 2010 right? , if is , i dont understand the date: 6-14-2008? , in conclusion fazdad1 , your soon is BRILLIANT ;)

[@wefdeas]

do you use full oll and pll and if you do, how long did it take you to learn them all?

i started cubing in fifth grade but unfortunately didnt find the community or speedcubes so i sort of forgot about it until seventh grade. however i took long breaks even since then, so i havent progressed as much as i could have. :(

Jack Black You'll need to ask that on the speedcubing forum

[@maps600]

fridrich is a good method.. its what feliks uses. however, alex lau, another very fast cuber ("5BLD" on youtube) Uses the roux method. Both are equal.

[@maps600]

***** faster w/ cfop but switching to roux because its more fun i average 11 with cfop and 14-15 with roux
