[@TaiStar42]

I have one of these and I never knew what the goal of the puzzle was before. Thanks ... It's still a challenge after watching answer.

TaiStar42 i scared... ..

[@wennekevanderveen6854]

I love your videos! I really like that you didn't show the correct way to the solution immediately, but showed how to back up if it doesn't work right away.

[@Grazzmazzium]

He reminds me of that episode of spongebob where he became normal.

[@sc-ek6qz]

Delgado Army... normal? (Starts crying but cant explain it... ..)

[@poisonmontana]

ThIs channel is so wholesome

[@FLEBpuzzles]

Thank you!

[@Robertlavigne1]

This is a puzzle often used in the reality show Survivor. It's made slightly more difficult by making the cubes 2.5 feet tall and of significant weight making any attempt at brute force take actual brute force.

[@itimk0]

I've just today discovered your channel, and I can just hear the joy in your voice when you are talking about these puzzles. Thank you for sharing your passion with us all

[@himasf]

He's just so likeable and innocent

[@extraaccount1591]

Makes me want to hate him but I can't 😾😾

[@master56565]

I had this puzzle years ago when I was a kid, and I never solved it and had no idea what it was called to look it up today. Amazing to see it again

[@lukasegeling5205]

master56565 Same for me, mine is buried in my closet. It is identical to this one, even with the same red string

[@mintcat5709]

master56565 so what is it called

[@djpheeze]

I had a plastic version of this in the 80s under the name _Frantic_ . It's the same puzzle, just not as well made.

[@kimberlypatton8473]

Thank you for including the patent link,I love doing puzzles and woodwork and think I can make one of these myself! I love Soduko too and am a solid expert now,so it looks like a fun challenge!

[@B4llisticBot]

The most wholesome KZbin channel :) this always makes me happy seeing him so invested into these puzzles

[@sw0rdz]

A busy bee who just got time to start watching videos speaking here. No mater what you do to each piece, you will always have a block of some random color. Additionally, if you perform the same move repetitively, you will eventually reach your initial color. That means this puzzle can be represented using math's permutation group. The rubik's cube is also a puzzle that can be represented with a permutation group. A lot of math clubs will hold some form of a lecture/seminar of permutation groups using a rubik's cube.

[@Arcanilumia]

I found this channel 3 videos ago, and I already want every single puzzle he has

[@marcelvdberg]

A very good explanation, something learned today. Thanks for sharing. I love your channel!

[@FLEBpuzzles]

Thank you for watching!

[@FreakyFred18827]

This guy would Survive The Next SAW Movie

[@ashleyhazlehurst9593]

Fleb you have such a cheery demeanor I love this new format! And another interesting puzzle 😁

[@brookeontiktok]

You have kept me entertained while in quarantine! ❤

[@thewayitwas]

This left me puzzled

[@jeepercreepers9]

*slow clap*

[@jayyoung492]

Your such a chilled nice laid back guy you have an amazing smile with a calm smoothing voice and I love that well done

[@rosefeltch6313]

You still have your sanity

[@FLEBpuzzles]

Darn.

[@gagestewart8571]

I didn't even try to solve it but I lost my sanity years ago

[@ryanmurray5973]

Looking forward to the "how to design a puzzle" series.

[@j.z.7337]

Please continue solving puzzles :)

[@nurailidepaepe2783]

As soon as I realized that there were 3 sides of the same color (2:20) I already knew how to solve it.... It's so easy

[@anteconfig5391]

This looked like fun. I never heard of a color cubed Sudoku puzzle. I'm gonna check it out.

[@Blananas2]

I love these videos! Super neat!

[@FLEBpuzzles]

Thanks Chris Blananas2! ...was Chris Blananas taken???

[@Zeus.2459]

Are you Ivan?

[@RoderickEtheria]

4:32 GR-BY-RB-YG and YG-GR-BY-RB works. I first eliminated the GG and YY sides, as they resulted in no possible combinations. That left me only 4 possibilities with the last two cubes, and since GY wasn't on both of the prior cubes, you could eliminate both of the last two cubes having RB, which meant you had the combinations of YB-RB, and RB-GY to work with for the last two cubes. Much simpler than trying to work out all the possible combinations, you now have two greens, a yellow, and a red on the first two cubes, and also one of each color on the first two cubes.

[@SuperTuffgirl]

Whew! That was extremely helpful and I solved it thanks to you!

[@Doughnut59]

You're the most wholesome person on the internet 🤗

[@tracyh5751]

What a wonderful puzzle! Thank you for the content; keep up the great work! :)

I'm wearing exactly the same cloths as you. Not close... But exactly the same. It was wired for first few seconds.

[@FLEBpuzzles]

Nice! I see you are a very fashionable person!

[@shirt9913]

FLEB hah. No.

[@Handlesaredumb69]

Lol good one fleb:)

[@MichaelGreeb]

I'm "wired"

[@LUCLUCLUCKY]

Maciej Kuśnierz weird. Not wired. Unless your a computer of course! 😁😁😁

[@moniquenovak-nichelson9769]

Now I wanna start collecting puzzles.. Thankkkkks now I have a new addiction lol

[@HighFidelityFox]

Awesome! You took my suggestion! Finnaly a good video about this puzzle lol

[@FelinaFaerlaingal]

I had that thing lying around since forever, I didn't even knew it was a puzzle, I thought it was some fancy dices of my childhood or something! I was completely WTF to see this in vidéo, but also very happy to get to discover and solve it! ^^

[@shakedown2770]

FLEB for president in 20/20 !!!!!!!

[@boumbh]

This is the insane instant solution of the Instant Insanity Puzzle .

[@rae2672]

FLEB IS SO CUTE 😭

[@multidwee]

I think you’d make a really good teacher, the way you walk through solving the puzzle makes me wish someone would explain math to me the same way

[@Chris_Goulet]

Got this puzzle in a cereal box in 1970, when I was eight years old. In 1980, I wrote a FORTRAN program to solve it with brute force (6X4)^4 = 331776 permutations. Handed my PUNCH CARDS to my college's mainframe computer operator, and picked up my form-feed printout later. It had timed out without a solution in 5 seconds of CPU time (the maximum allowed, LOL). A few years later I bugged my girlfriend in university to use her computer time. She entered the code on a terminal, and picked up the printout. It took 35 CPU seconds, and it was solved. She chewed me out because that was 1/3 of the total time allowed for her entire computer science semester! But I was was HAPPY.

[@andrewjones1143]

Fleb, this is not an insult in any way. You're a good looking guy. But I just found it way too hilarious that I've never seen one of your videos with your face in it and you look EXACTLY how I pictured you based on your voice 😂

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

Jokes on you though, I don’t need your puzzle to have insanity.

[@Rachara]

Calm down Tweak, have some coffee.

[@dogarogacog]

I just wanted to say thanks! I'm glad you game along. Partner.

[@Kelis-melissa]

These video’s are so awesomee 😁

[@FLEBpuzzles]

Thank you!

[@matthewfanous8468]

this is how you don't think like a witch hunter

[@wittner82]

wow! today fleb, mr puzzle and Tim from Grand Illusions three new videos!

[@annalee9171]

Fleb is so cute and such a cinnamon roll. Protect this channel at all costs

[@breckhodges3177]

This guy looks like he would chain you up in his basement and make you do puzzles

[@dd9813]

Look at FLEB's office: reference books and games. NERD!!! Jk FLEB you da man. Lol

[@katarzynaw4664]

Found it in an an line auction and bought it instantly just knowing what it was from your channel ;)

[@emanonmax]

My grandma had this while I was a child. I managed to solve it once but then never again.

[@mcbiffa2867]

ditch the holder until you've solved it 'freehand',then place the cubes at the last move...it'll save so much time

[@drane1210]

Great video keep it up. Great explaining

[@presidentadrian]

Bro!!! Ur content is amazing and I love every single video, and u know I’ve been supporting u from the start. But damn!!! With this particular outfit u look like a low-key serial killer hidden by a “nice guy” persona!!

[@j.pricey]

Thanks, I actually became more confused after watching the video.

[@sungahn7386]

This is awesome!

[@AlucardNoir]

I'm still not sold on this new "Fleb has a face" format.

[@kcleo-]

I feel like my dream interaction with you would be a board game night

[@MisterPoro]

Anyone else think Fleb is super cute? Like, he’s so adorable

[@JonathanBlue]

I'm tripping on LSD, sitting on my toilet, and watching your video.

[@Jordan-pu7on]

Hey fleb nice video!Wasnt this puzzle used in some puzzles in the usa's survivor?

[@FLEBpuzzles]

Was it? If it was, I'd love to hear about it!

[@Jordan-pu7on]

yes it was actually used in some challenges!heres an example if you want to see it kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJe9pWSnirVpkJY

[@FLEBpuzzles]

No way!!!! That's hilarious!!!

[@nachofranc2400]

Its like a color themed sudoku

[@lenguyenbach7794]

Your bookshelf told me that you are a scientist or maybe a researcher

[@arconisthewolf4430]

please do more mazes! there my fave

[@krukmatiasmk]

Hey! I can see a MATE on your right. Nice!!!! Greetings from Argentina

[@adamgitkind3336]

I ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU HAVE TO GET EACH SIDE THE SAME COLOR WTFFFF MY MIND IS BLOWN HAHAHAHA

[@jakcskelimgton9115]

looking and listening to this guy gives me instant insanity

[@amberfrost7766]

Can i suggest using a white board for color puzzles?

[@reddcube]

I wish you had Amazon affiliate links in the description so I could buy these puzzles.

[@missclumsy6433]

that's definitely gonna make me insane (HEY MOM CAN YOU GET ME ONE OF THESE?)

[@maxlebow7373]

I checked the web address - have you taken it down? I love your teaching methods.

[@carpetlick5243]

FIGHT THE IMPERIALISTS

[@niccatipay]

You cannot go insane if you don't think *taps head* or You cannot go insane if you already are

[@-HustleUnion-]

i was waiting for Its hip to be square to start playing, are the rain coat and axe just off screen?

[@MrFrankvanderhorst]

Just wanted to say that instant insanity is not the same as what they used in the survivor show. Same idea but the survivor one is made with easier color palets. It would otherwise be to difficult.

[@elleirydustyhorn8685]

Would this puzzle work with dice . 1-2-3-4 ?

[@SticklysKingdom]

I'm not instantly insane. False advertising. 0/10.

[@Blinkation]

it's real-life board james!

[@mrlefthand2348]

Lol you can tell that he dI'd it first try :) this is both a cool puzzle and a funny blooper video :D

[@FunQualified]

Is that the kazoo kid all grown up?!

[@mnky_man4323]

I had a social studies teacher in 6th grade named frank armbruster

[@Ryyi23]

I miss you, Fleb

[@Obstagoon862]

This puzzle looks familiar somehow... I think I may have had it at one point when I was a kid.

[@nailer196]

The Instant Insanity exists for android under the name IQ'biki. This is more hard because each app start the cubes have a new coloring and you can choose level of difficult. KZbin has an example iq'biki.

[@insidetrip101]

I'm a bit confused; you said that the orientation wasn't important, but then went on to say that what was important was the "color pairs." What I find conusing to that is that it seems to me that the orientation (at least in this puzzle) is inextricably linked to the orientation because the orientation decides which color pair is visible. In fact, this is why you had to take the cubes out and reorient them; is it not?

[@narutopcwiz]

hey do you play puzzle video games like "the witness"?

[@korppini]

Is it possible to solve this so that all the sides have the SAME color in a row? That is, one green side, one blue, one red and one yellow? One of my friends claimed he did it (we thought that was the point with this game) but I never succeeded. Now when I see the point is to get every dice in DIFFERENT colors on the sides, I'm gonna try it again. But can my friend actually have "solved" it and gotten the same color in a row on each side, or is it impossible?

[@encryptedmaze]

For the longest time I thought that you were supposed to get all of the sides to the same color... failed so much lol

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

Hi, welcome to another episode of Mr Pahçl! Seems like a Rubiks cube to me...I hate those..

[@blarrgh3854]

this guy reminds me of castiel so freaking much

[@crisionmatlock4450]

Uh, I'm sorry but within the 1st few seconds of your video, your smiling sent my mind to evil dark thoughts. U look waaaaayyy to innocent.

[@waffledressing3078]

Id just eliminate the pair of colors in the pairs for each cube and place them so that these colors do not show on each brick. If the colors do not line up properly, I will switch the sides of the colors and TADAH! You are done.

[@nobuo4203]

i figured out the puzzle at 3 mins in there are 4 colours on each cube and 6 sides each cube has 1 of each colour except one of those colours it has 3 of so you find the 2 sides that are oposite of each otehr and the same colour on each cube and make those sides the sies that are not seen then arange the cubes from there

[@billenguyen637]

just wondering what program you used to make your intro, its great

[@COMOLIFE]

When I noticed that there was three of the main color I solved it

[@tylerwheelis]

it's comical how his voice still sounds normal at 1.25 speed

[@atticusbulan3508]

That's the same kind the puzzle store at pier 39 has

[@atticusbulan3508]

I meant to add "of puzzle" after "kind"

[@santhoshwagle9857]

In FLEB either F or B should be in green...

[@thesultanmerchant]

Can you please provide dimension for making this puzzle?

[@lorimitchell9025]

Is fleb your actual name?

[@lauraahanj856]

Ship 758 no, it is his nickname

[@-danR]

the girl Then what is nick'sname?

[@xandp2611]

tubeist- dan Nickname its a name you use that's not your real one

[@pyrographic380]

what i want to know is who is name

[@ohnospaghetti-o6123]

Yes

[@pgn42]

What’s so great about this one, wait, ITS GOT ITS OWN WIKIPEDIA PAGE?!

[@sinom]

Maybe it's a better name for Americans. Katzen Jammer is pretty similar in meaning and also sounds pretty good.
