Max now holds the record for the fastest time to solve a 3x3x3, 4x4x4, 5x5x5, 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 cube! www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2023/6/max-park-makes-history-by-solving-cube-in-fastest-time-ever-752905
@@8T6yt His own social progress, apologies for the misunderstanding. Max started cubing to expand his social skills and has made progress in leaps and bounds.
Only old cubers can really understand the weight of this record. It has been 5 years since Yusheng Du’s incredible 3.47 breaking Felik’s record of 4.22. Now a lot of people have gotten sub 4 singles like Max, Tymon and Yiheng. And now Max Park has finally broken it by 0.34 seconds. Which for a non cuber may not seem a lot but it definitely is. Congrats Max for this insane record!🎉
"cubers" that's funny. there's only so many possible positions of the internal mechanism. you people think you're geniuses. you're just flipping plastic quickly already knowing the solution. so funny to see people brag about this nonsesne.
@@damienwarlock He's the greatest plastic flipper in the world...which is great but I don't think I could find the patience and focus and use of my time to want to do this.
@@damienwarlockDude. Not trying to be rude but you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. There are 43 quintillion unique permutations of a rubik’s cube. What is it about you that makes you want to diminish others success and joy? How about you just be quiet next time
@@damienwarlock You're a non-cuber, I wouldn't expect you to understand the true value of such a unique and interesting sport. I can easily say the same thing for Soccer like "you're just running around with a ball while already knowing that you have to kick it inside a net", that's how dumb your assumption of Cubing sounds like. Of course there's more to what I said about Soccer just like there's more about Cubing than what you said. First of all, the average beginner that starts cubing would only be able to solve it in 5 minutes after fully knowing how to solve the Rubik's Cube with the beginner method. After a year it is expected that a cuber would at least be able to solve it in less than 30 seconds, but being able to solve it in less than 6 seconds would require a couple of years with dedicated practice. Max Park started when he was 2 and now he is 21, it took him 19 years to achieve this world record that you so despise. Now getting to the details, Cubing is not just about turning fast, and no one in the world is able to know the full solution to a Rubik's Cube scramble after looking at it for like 10 seconds. Cubing involves skills like: -Turning Speed The ability of being able to turn the Rubik's Cube fast. That speed can only be achieved if you know the right fingertricks in order to be able to turn a cube accurately. -Efficiency The ability of being able to elaborate and plan efficient solutions to solve the Rubik's Cube. However it's impossible to plan a full solution of the cube, only partially. -Look Ahead The ability of being able to subconsciously solve the cube and at the same time looking forward to the next things you are going to do and so on. So debunking your statement of "flipping plastic quickly", it's not that easy to just turn fast, because aside from practice, you need to know the right fingertricks. Fingertricks are how you turn the cube in order to achieve faster and smoother solves. An example can be that, instead of using your whole wrist to turn the upper layer of the cube, you can just use your index finger to turn it while keeping your hand on the side of the cube. Now debunking your statement of "already knowing solutions", no one in the world can know the full solution of the Rubik's Cube at first sight and it would be impossible to know even after looking at it for like a week or a month. The reason the guy in the video you saw managed to flawlessly solve it without any pauses is because he used "Look Ahead", that means when he was looking at the cube during the 15 seconds inspection, he planned the first moves he was going to make and later on, while doing the things he already planned, he was also looking at the next things he was going to do and so on. So next time, before assuming things and downgrading the achievements in a sport that you know nothing about and that you will never ever achieve in your life, you should just ask questions. I really hope you read all of this, it's long but it is pretty informative and will clear your messed up mind (hopefully).
I actually started solving the Rubik's cube for the first time two days ago. I checked the world record just for curiosity then, but I had NO idea that it had been broken just a day before. It gave me such a boost from the beginning! Truly amazing, Max.
Watch the video at 1/4 speed. I tried to count the number of turns he made and came up with 19 and I know that some of those were multiple turns. Incredible feat! Congratulations Max! Awesome to watch the excitement in the room because they all immediately knew what he had done.
Max Park is (probably) the best cuber of all time right now, he is my new idol since Feliks Zemdegs. Congratulations Max! Continue surprising us and shape speedcubing history! Show them all that you are the best!
It doesn't make sense to call someone "the best cuber of all time rigth now" though haha XD I do agree with him being one of the best currently if not the best, but your statement is kinda contradicting as "all time" and "right now" are closer to being antonyms than synonyms...
@@karlrose405 I think what he meant was Max is the currently the best cuber in history, while also accounting for the possibility of a better cuber coming in the future, since there's always newcomers in the cubing scene that go on to set records when it's least expected haha
@@karlrose405it actually makes perfect sense. He’s saying right now, in this moment, he’s the best cuber of all time. If he didn’t say right now, that would imply that he’s going to be the best cuber for all of eternity which the chances of the record never being broken again are slim.
*KUDO to that kid who knew to keep everyone away and to have them sign the papers right away. A record can be lost because someone touches the cube or mess up the clock, etc...*
Max just beat on of the most important records in the world, Max have proven that a kid even with a disability can change the world and with people without a spectrum. But still I was in shock and so happy.
I had really been following him for a while and wanted him to win, since the previous record was taken from him by his partner Tymon who appears in the min. 1:21 which, by the way, they get along very well, I think he had done it in 4.7 seconds, and Yusheng Du with 3,46 Congratulations Max!!! We know what it cost you to get to that brand. It's crazy how they keep getting better.
the reason the guy is stopping people from getting to the table, is because one time at a world record time the timer got reset. it thankfully had video evidence, but if not, the solve would have to be canceled (before the judge writes the time down).
The Hungarian invention that has kept the world excited for decades. Congratulations by a Hungarian, I can barely comprehend what I can see! I hope Rubik Ernő also sees this video.
Kudos to max but most importantly his amazing parents who encouraged and nurtured their son to be extraordinary. Impressive feat but Incredible parenting 👏
Max is truly a superstar with the Rubix Cube and this video shows it so well done Max and for the other young lad who witnessed it I am sure that will hold a special place in his heart for the rest of his life. Keep up the great solves Max
Rubik Ernő feltaláló ezt biztosan nem gondolta volna annak idején! Én pedig őrzöm a fiókomban első, és egyetlen Rubik kockámat 1981 óta, amit soha nem sikerült kirakni...Gratulálok, és sokakkal együtt üdvözöllek Magyarországról!
If you watch in slow motion and freeze the image at a specific point, you can see that the cube was completed already at 2,984, he just had to touch the the sensor blanket? with his palms. It's strange that even the post-procedure has to be included... I know, I know these are just few tenths, but the incredible speed is the point. There could be some other measurement method where, let's say, the sensor is built into the Rubik-cube.
Yeah that's just timer delay. There are things called smart cubes but as of now, they are banned in official competition but my guess is that they will be allowed in a few years when they become better
I saw this only an hour or so after the solve was done! Trust me, you should've seen the messages I sent to some of my cuber friends. I was ecstatic. GG Max!!
I thought that the upcoming world record will be near Yushen Du's 3.47 sec. But this is 0.34 sec faster. Unbelievable 😮 Btw congrats Max 🎉 I'm one of the biggest fan of your's ❤ I'm really very happy 😊
Dang that’s fast😮🤯 Also the guy with the mask was like “ok everyone CALM DOWN” lmao😂 there is a physical limit,but sometimes the cube is mixed but slightly easier. That PLUS the skill results in like 1 millisecond less
It's 5:30 a.m., Max broke it at maybe 2:05 or 2:10, I just woke up yesterday and checked my yt, I stunned when I saw the video with the title Max Park 3.13, and I cried after I watched it. New cubes released and some techniques used into the solves more often (like Xcross, XXcross , pseudoslotting...), no one know who would broke it first, Max, Tymon, Ruihang, Yiheng, Matty, Luke or someone else, these top solvers encourage others by their results: We saw the second sub 4 by Asher in last May, and more 3's in comp since then(I always remember how excited I was when I saw Tymon's 3.97 in Euro on live stream), also the avg also lower to sub 5 which is sound ridiculous back to 2015. And now, after 1661 days, 3.47 finally down (you could see how high this standard is, Yusheng himself says he also relieved😂), congrats to Max, the WR chasing for sub-3.47 is over (at least for now, I guess we'll get 2 more sub-3.47 before Worlds). (Personally, I think both Max and the journey for the whole cubing community to get the sub-3.47 changes the cubing forever.)
That is so fast. I can do a cube in about a minute but even if I learned all the algorithms, I can't even imagine approaching Park, Zemdegs and all the others. It is so fast it looks like it just flashed into solved.
I used to do this in the early 1980's (about 1982) and got down to around 1'15" then stopped doing it because I got bored with it and there didn't seem to be any incentive for getting any faster. We always counted the time from first look - that is when you start solving the cube in your head. So, by 1980's standards, he starts it in the video at 0:07 seconds and finishes it at 0:22 seconds so it actually took him 15 seconds to do. Looking at it was always counted as part of the 'doing it' time - if he wasn't using that time to solve it then he wouldn't need to look at it for so long. The competition seems now about how fast you can move the cube, not about solving it as he has already completed that in the 12 seconds that nobody seemed to notice. In fact, you could probably blind fold him after he has solved it in his mind (after the 12s) and then he will perform the solution (in 3.134s) without looking at it and be very impressive. Solving it in 15 seconds is very impressive but I think it is time that people started being honest about it by including the time he takes to solve it.
It’s called inspection time, the main reason some solves take so long is because people don’t use it. During official competitions, you can inspect the cube for 15 seconds before solving, going over this limit will get you a penalty. We don’t count this time since there not actually solving the cube, only planning the first couple moves of a solve. If we counted this time, it would be like counting the time that an athlete takes warning up before a race, obviously it takes some mental and physical preparation before a world record, but counting it to the world record is unfair.
Also, cubers can’t memorize an entire cube in 15 seconds, well, some can, like in blindfolded solving, but it’s counted in the solve since most people need more than 15 seconds to memorize the entire solution, most people take many minutes. And again, we don’t memorize an entire solution, just the first moves to solve the cross and maybe f2l.
