I Learned to Solve the Rubik's Cube in Under 60 Seconds (ft. SoupTimmy) 

What do you want to see me learn next? Let me know!!

Hafu is a great learner 🎉🎉Thanks for the women skill

I started doing the cube in 1981 when I was in the military for 2 years in South Africa. I read about various ways to solve it and worked out my own way. Its like riding a bicycle and you never forget especially since you spend days and months solving it and playing with the cube. I had my cube with me 24/7. Up to this day I sometimes notice unsolved cubes anywhere I go and then I solve them and many people admit they never seen it being solved. It never gets old.

Super cool video! Congrats Hafu on joining team cubing

Amazing well done Hafu! And great work from Timmy!

I love how more and more RU-vidrs are starting to pick up speed cubing, making more people start and joining the community

Love the variation in content! Been watching all your videos and they never fail to disappoint ! Makes me want to learn how to solve one since I never got to and gave up years ago when I tried to lol.

I started cubing last November 1, 2022. I average 15-18 secs now. This vid reminds me of my struggles and am actually glad to see how far I've come. It's hard when you solve one for the first time but it's actually really easy because you just learn like 5 algorithms. For the non cubers out there, no.. we dont calculate and do it intuitively, there are specific algorithms needed to perform in order to solve pieces Edit: As of July 2023, Im now averaging 11- 13 secs, im not consistent at it, sometimes i get more than 15 secs Edit: Sept 2023, I got 9.83 PB Edit: Feb 2024, I am purely 11-13s consistent (I took a 2 months speedcubing break)

When I first started learning how to solve a 3x3 it took me 3 weeks, and then to get it faster took me another few weeks. Awesome that you can get it in under one minute in only 5 days, with such dedication!

This is actually one of the most helpful tutorials because it overviews the whole process. For me as a beginner i get bogged down with over focusing on each step and need to zoom out and this video allows for that.

Watching your improvement was really fun, keep learning new things!

My first solve was one month ago and I learned it from cubehead

I love how over time dedication pays off and you can learn algorithms faster

As a cuber this reminds me of the times when I first learned how to solve the cube

I love watching people learn about cubing, its been 4 years for me with 1 break, and now my pb is 5.02

When I started cubing (a year ago) I spend like 3 days spending 3 hours to learn how to solve a cube and started off by solving in like 2 minutes or something, now I can do 25 second solves! Keep on doing what you enjoy and I believe you will surely become a master!

I remember my first sub 1min solve.Now a food average is a sub 20.So many cubers are going to recognize themselves in this .Great vid.

Hafu your dedication is crazy to learning new skills! Your a great learner!

You guys are really impressive to do this so fast. I remember spending weeks messing around with the cube when I was a kid. I was lucky to have a few friends show me a little bit to get started. But they only knew how to solve one top color. I figured out how to solve more of it on my own, maybe a little more than 1/2 way. If the thing hadn't dissapeared on me, I might have learned to solve the whole cube.

I'm DEEPLY impressed and INSPIRED to try this "algorithm" thingie. 🤔🥰🤗🇨🇦💖

Thats great hafu ! My record on solving rubik's is 17,7 seconds, that took me almost half of year to reach that ❤

Broooo i want to see more about Shaolin monks!!! Please continue it 💝

i love seeing the cubing community grow, keep it up!

Dude turned an enjoyable hobby into a cramming session. The amount of times he said "my brain was overheating" is too relatable.

I never thought someone would be able to do it faster than michelle in the first week.

Another cuber yay, usually when extracting cubing we learn the beginners method to more advanced solves. Than we start diving into beginer cfop (cross, f2l kr first 2 layers, orientation of the last layer, and the permutation of the last layer), instead and than after mastering the beginer cfop dive into the more advanced method by memorise all 57 oll algorithms, and 21 pll algorithms for every case you could get (making a total of 78 algorithms). I myself am not the best cubes and average around 31 seconds, while there are some speed cube who average 5-8 seconds. While the official world record is 3.47 seconds set by Yusheng Du. However there are covers who have gotten faster solves than this (one being Max Park, and various other famously known speed cubers) it is not recognized official unless its at a official rubiks cube competition (so we refer to them as PB's personal best, and PR's personal record, which the only difference is a PR is an official record, however some people look at this as the same thing which is ok in any situation). The rubik's cube itself is not hard to learn by itself, just learn the beginer method and your set, however if you want to gwt faster that's the hard part. And all it takes is practice, memorising the algorithm and pattern to use the algorithm, and muscle memory where just by looking at the cube you can tell you hands what to do without thinking of the exact algorithm because you've done it so much you just know how to do it. Than of course finger tricks help increase your speed at solving the cube significantly. It should also be noted that there is a rubik language to view algorithms we call rubik rotations where each error letter represents a motion of the cube. It's really not to hard to learn (if you can play an instrument the concept is basically the exact same as cubing). Than speed cubes have developed a more advanced methods they like to use to solve the cube such as look ahead. Please if you want to start speed cubing I recommend buying a speed cube instead of a rubiks brand, it's entire design is to improve your speed, and it's alot more easier to move, they come from non-magnetic to magnetic, stickerless to stickered (i recommend a stickerless cube that way the stickers won't peel off after long periods of use), than we get into the more expensive cube such as the Gan cubes which are essentially the IPhone version of a rubik's cube, defiantly top market and expensive and each year they make a new cube which may or may not be better than the last but like iPhone we all have preferences, the newest Gan is the Gan 13 MaglevFX (if you have no idea what I just said that ok) Maglev means magnetic levitation because the core of the cube is built on it along with the pieces to improve turning skills, the FX are fixed magnetics because the Gan 13 Maglev (last years cube) was how you would say way to fast and not very stable for the average cuber. But than again it's all about preference and what you like when cubing, those cubes can cost to $80 or more depending on the quality, however there are cheaper cubes out there that are just as good and even better depending on you and how you use the cube (like from harry potter with wands, there's a wand for each wizard not all of them might be right for thr right wizard but one that fits you). I hoped this brief into into 3 by 3 cubing helped anyone who is scrolling in the comment sections. It's really not that complicated however it does get more advanced the deeper you go in and the better you'll understand it.

I learn led how to solve a runic cube 4 days ago and it’s the beginner method I watched it from RU-vid and the channel I watched it from made it super easy for me even tho I messed up and I can do it without any help now

This kind of reminds me of that video from Michelle Khare where J Perm became her Coach. Still great Video!!!

2:15 that’s how we all felt when we solved our first Rubik’s cube

I still remember when i learned how to solve a rubik cube 2 weeks ago... my first solve was 2 minutes 4 seconds and now its under 1 minutes

Excellent brother, I saw you after a long time, how is your health and leg injury? This is great for sharpening the mind. Om Namaste

I love Hafu always tries

This is so relatable 😂😂 When I taught my brother on how to solve a rubiks cube using begginers method, it was so stressful because whenever my brother makes a wrong turn I keep shouting😂😂 but then a few days later he mastered it and had a time of 3 minutes. He did so many solves just to get that time 🎉

Honestly, I started learning an easy way to learn how to solve speed cubing and I was able to start solving very quickly, but I can't go as far with more steps and less time than less steps and bigger learning curve. Also, I've never been able to learn harder tricks to do in cubing, and that's why I need to throw myself in the deep end to learn to swim.

It be step #4 and #5 😫😤 6:12 imma master it doe and celebrate from this utmost inspiration of witnessing your pain and dedication 🤓🖖🏾

When i was first learning and even now sometimes when i solve it a lot in a day ill close my eyes to sleep and see the cube. Like im making turns and moving pieces in my mind as i try to fall asleep. No matter how much i want it to stop it just keeps flashing behind my eyes till i fall asleep.

Actually the difficulty of learning to solve depends in the method you try to learn or were taught i learned and was taught cubing using an easier method so i learned it in 30 minutes then tried switching to more difficult but faster methods which worked out better because it downed my time from around 1 minute to 30-45 seconds

Within the first day i got 4 minutes.

I love both of your vids

Hafu : wakes up Timmy : here solve this

Soup Timmy isn't world's biggest RU-vid channel . " It's king of cubers "

Daddy got moves

I hope Hafu go keeps doing very well on and I want you to learn solving a 21 x 21

I always like a good soundtrack from BLUE STEEL;)

1 view bruh!

Guys plz make me top comment

Amazing video😍 it really inspired me to beat my personal best

I know how to solve the cube, but not in a under a min yet. I need @SoupTimmy as my personal trainer too 😂

dont be scared by this video. timmy taught him a more advanced method for last layer for no reason and anyone could learn how to solve the cube within probably 30 minutes to an hour.

me first pin pls

If you see things you are doing like in dream or thinking about it again and again you gave 100 percent of your work

yo congrats @Hafu Go take it up a notch to a 4x4 its amazing how patient timmy is lol

2 of my favourite content creators in one vid aaaaa

My memory is OP after just 1 solve I memorized all the algorithms. To be fair however, I did watch the video twice and forgot the order plus rewatching and pausing individual steps during the first solve.

this video inspire me to solve Rubik's cube 🎉🎉

16:00 bros got that rubiks cube rizz fr ☠

I really relate with this video, it took me weeks to be able to solve it with no help now my PB is 12.5seconds

This video is best motivation for me

yo what cubes are thos by the way keep going you are doing so good!

Hi there, I was 13 years of age when the cube was invented, I have grown up with it and never learnt it until a few weeks ago at the age of almost 62, watched a RU-vid tutorial then like yourself made my own short hand notes and practised. I just need to improve now on holding and finger techniques. Still on 1.30 but trying to get it under 1 minute, taught my 12 year old grand daughter the cube and her time is 1 minute I think her small hands contribute. Looking in from the UK.

Bro you helped me with cubeing

The club is a new experience for any youtuber

I remember when i started to learn how to solve a cube, it was harf but managed to do it. After a year I can now sow a rubiks cube in under 15 seconds

4:03 Yeah, pretty much everyone feels that way all the time.

Love this❤🧠

hafu you are a hardworking person ✨

Woah, this is so cool. Time to show off in next party lol

I have been a cuber for like 7 month but my pb is onky 49.69 seconds, when i firat learned i gave up and then like a week later i suddenly got motivated by watching soup timmy's videos (thank you timmy) and then i learmed it and now i learned F2L but uts still hard

timmy sounds like me teaching my friends how to solve tthe rubix cube

This is where I say it took my friend 2 days for me to teach him to solve a cube, and now on day 3, he fingertricks like a pro (hes like a prodigy)

I have crazy respect for you I can't even solve the third layer but second and first and second layers are ez

Nice btw my first solve was 3.32 seconds this is a vollab we all needed

The dude that explained all of the things like when the Rubiks cube was created, use that Rubiks cube that was in his hand

Can't believe two of my favorite ytbers are together

Wow! I can solve Cubes in less than 2 mins. However I solve in the complete opposite fashion you do!!! I was taught to corners first, middle next, opposite side of cube same way (corners first) and then solve middle of cube.

Incredible Hafu!

This man is on a skill hunt

This was so inspirational!

So glad we have another cuber but like how come if someone has one interest as me they almost always have a second one in common with me.

Nice next challenge is part two of solving the rubiks cube but under 20 seconds now lol

I do f2l yellow cross edges then lastly corners

12:18 it is called a pll skip and itio one of 72!

Can you please do a video of the q cards

I wish SoupTimmy had longer form content

Bruh i wondered why you looked so familiar,, then at 8:40 i realised you're the guy that saved my grades last year!

i acutally learned how to solve a rubiks cube by watching soup timmy shorts

nice ive been solving for about 2 months and but i leaned with 7 steps

My personal best is under 2 minutes but the solving got easy but to be fast at it is a hard talent

Souptimmy i love your video

I started liking cubes 2 days ago and I learned it yesterday under 1 hour I'm so 😁

I love this video so much

What would of happened if Hafu solved the cube at the start faster than Timmy solved the 10 by 10

Welcome to the cubing world hafu😊

Next solve a megaminx in under a minute

Hafu is the Best Kung Fu Martial Artist and Rubik's Cube Solver!!! ❤ from Myanmar...

After this Hafu won’t touch a cube in his life ever again of how hard it is .

Best rubix cube youtuber is T T T-T TIMAHHHHH!

Omg i wish i have that smooth rubik cube

Wow your so good at cubing one day you’ll be faster than max park:)

It’s soup Timmy! He’s vids are awesome!❤❤
