What?! Wait… What?! Wait… What?! Is literally all I could say while watching this video.
I haven't seen anyone's hands move that quickly since I saw the children in India who solved math equations with their hands!
I never thought that watching someone solve a Rubik's cube could be a heart-thumping roller coaster of emotions!
Collin Burns, a student at Central Bucks West High School in Doylestown, PA was competing in a Rubik's Cube competition but I don't think anyone was expecting him to break the world record.
The original record of solving the 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube in 5.55 seconds was held by Mats Valk from the Netherlands, but Burns was able to bump him down to number two.
Burns completed the Rubik's Cube in 5.25 seconds.
According to the World Cube Association, "Although this result has not been uploaded to the WCA database just yet, we can confirm that this is (or will be soon) 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."
The crowd literally goes wild. You can hear that someone cannot stop screaming. It's a fantastic moment to nerd out!
SHARE if this blew your mind as much as it did mine!
