Why is the Rubik's Cube so Hard?!?!! 

What if it's on the top?

lol

So True.

Shyanne Leach No.

Nice I love vsause

Matthew Pinnock, TheOdd1sOut brought me to Vi Hart

Yeah

That made me laugh

Check the description

He only calculated how many stacks of paper it'd take. I was elaborating by calculating for both Pluto's closest approach, an furthest distance from Earth, instead of its average distance from the sun, and adding in the amount of time it would take.

+Weezy_Corpse I was just saying because it would have saved some time :)

2+2 is 4 , -1 = 3 QUICK MATHS

impressive!

and the yellow orange blue corner has the wrong color scheme, and it has a red and orange corner

Not every single cube follows the exact same color scheme. I've seen a few cubes, mostly custom built though, that have Red and orange beside each other.

Actually the red and blue center are swapped. The orange yellow and blue corner would have to be between yellow, blue and red, because it wouldn't fit on the other side of blue.

red had to be opposite of orange because of the yellow orange blue corner and where it needs to be placed and the red and blue centers arent swapped...

They are swapped. If you put the yellow-blue-orange corner that blue and yellow match, the orange piece would be on the red side. That is impossible.

Well done

Mine sub is 29

non-cuber

My best is 15.8 seconds tbh, And my avg is 19.8 seconds.

I can solve a 2x2 in 12 seconds

Blank Cuber good one

Blank Cuber lol

Blank Cuber da dun chee!!

Fight me my one is made out of metal.

Technically correct is the best type of correct

20x43quintillion are you sure?

+Yoav Shati Um that's definitely not accurate.

+Yoav Shati Um that's definitely not accurate. Edit: I was wrong i did my research and 1 quintillion seconds is twice the age of the universe.

You should check before claiming that I'm wrong

Quintillion is a very big number 1000000000000000000

Well lets restart the stack again :D

What if it's VERY heavy paper?

A Person Then you're screwed

Sorry to tell you, theres no wind in space

Ijordan Mc Solar wind maybe?

Lol!!!!!!!! 😂😂😂

Mick Vaillancourt XD

+Minecrafter Redstoner (mimick25987) XD XD Very *punny*...

FavorateGamingPeople NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

+Minecrafter Redstoner (mimick25987) At first i didn't get but now i do

Rzkytron WHY?

Lance Mape cuz to have that many paper that can reach pluto u need to cut really a pretty good amount of trees and make that much paper

Yeah it's not like him going to pluto and coming back seem less legitimate, right.

oh no.. 1000 x 1000

+Nyaoet doesn't exist bud

+Nyaoet you mean 5^777777777777 by 5^777777777777

+SSgSS Cuber Yes, it exists in a simulator, but not in real life. You messed up with 17x17x17.

Nah, a computerized 1000 x 1000 x 1000

sorry i can't decipher your grammar.

brostepisthebest "Did anyone else thing the title meant: "Why is the original Rubik's cube so hard to turn?"?

it's not that, the cubes from rubik are simply stiff and lack of corner cutting

Vilgoth Lalc i bought a rubiks brand rubiks cube and i used some petroleum jelly and that work for a while but it started to get stiff again so i removed the petroleum jelly and sanded it a little and it works fine...it's even better than my Dayan 5 ZhanChi.

EJ Byron Have you ever tried with moyu or a dayan? Trust me, they are waaaay better. The Rubik's one is ok, but for speedsolving those brands I mentioned are the ones to use (there are way more btw)

the fact that we're able to solve it? Isn't that kinda obvious?

A rubiks cube isn't hard to solve... It's hard to think of the algorithms.. But still, not that impressive.

SpydersByte easy to solve, hard to find a solution for.

In space

+Okan Zagor “MutatedRedstone” Akkoyun It could blow out the base and it would fall down, drowning humanity in blood from all the papercuts

+GamerGab007 xD

there is no wind in space

TheGamingDragon GT But there is on earth. Blow the base and it all goes down.

Well, it's six times longer bcuz it's six drawings for six faces on each paper.

Eric Le He is most likely assuming that you are drawing all six faces in 45 seconds

45 seconds was my average for drawing an unfolded version of a cube and labeling each cubie of all six faces with y o b w r g

but what if the entire population of earth were drawing pictures

Wes H You cannot make every single person draw different permutations of a rubik's cube. At lease 2 ppl will end up drawing exactly the same permutation.... LOL!! :D XD

You made a big mistake: When Kenneth reached Pluto, he was hungry, but he was still alive. That means that he doesn't draw the pieces of paper during the journey, he drew it before the journey began, so now it could be anywhere.

That would be equivalent to solving an easy scramble.

how do you learn how to solve it?

brostepisthebest Google.

It's only hard if you make it that way. Nothing's hard if you're having fun!

True

Or just draw it in the last paper :) .

The point is, the number's so big that you can't brute force the solution.

Abdullah Mansoor NICE JOB bad job

Abdullah Mansoor Sure. 48 miles after Jupiter. Now all I need to know is which of the 728 stacks it's in, as well as how to get it out of the stack when I find it.

No, 45,000 Miles.

Abdullah Mansoor It's 48 miles after, stack 103

Abdullah Mansoor no 48 million

soomin tru da kubes, lil' rubikz

You ruined it

sail me through the sky little einstiens

LOL

@@triple_gem_shining Climb aboard, get ready to explore

+SuperWaffles Good joke m8

you mean feliks

How can wind blow in space ;p

Mikolaj B ever heard of solar wind?

k kool

***** it's still wind though, although the blowing part is arguable

Mikolaj B *Cough* it's on earth too...*cough*

Yeah do you redkb

GameJunk I

@@orb3058 hi brada (:

GameJunk i do

this isn't real dumbo.

+Toby Yang I'm more curious to know how he could stack the papers in space without the floating around

+Grottsa glue?

HE WENT OUTSIDE OK

+Sparsh Kumar he DREW the hole on the piece of paper

true

less than ur mom sorry ^_^

a single sheet of paper weighs 4.5 grams so if i multiply that by 43 quintillion i get 194634014735204352000 grans which is about 214 trillion tons.

I'm not sure but you would have to include the weight of killing everyone on earth because you had to cut down all the trees

there might be enough trees if all of the planets were just forest land and the sun

2,162,600,163,724,492,800 Grams.

Ya totally

He does

he obviously has enough paper for it

+Wolf Gang lol

+Pilotcave why do you assume it was free?

+Russ Walsh he said he found one so i was guessing he found it out of nowhere

+Griffin Mackenzie its hard without a tutorial and not knowing the algorithms..

Look at this

Hmm the problem with that is the fact that there is no wind in space, and considering almost the ENTIRE stack is in space, dont expect it to blow over.

I never said in space.

Umm, what?

Lol so true

You can solve the Rubik's Cube intuitively without any algorithms. The Heise method, and other forms of blockbuilding, for instance. But to a non-cuber, that would probably be the reason why it's so hard, is that there are so many combinations (how am I not getting this?).

Josiah Winslow Yes, you can solve it intuitively, but you need to train yourself to be able to do that. I meant to say, you as a beginner cannot solve it just by playing with it. 15 slider puzzle may be easy enough, but Rubik's isn't. The difficulty comes more from it being 3D and less predictable.

Omagari Toshi The cross, to a beginner, is relatively intuitive. F2L shouldn't be too hard with some messing around and developing your own "method" for F2L pairing (i.e. discovering the Sexy Move x3 trigger, which isn't implausible). Orienting and permuting LL edges can be done simply by taking out and re-inserting F2L pairs, as is easily seen (even if it's not understood entirely). Permuting LL corners with commutators isn't too hard to understand (but I argue it could be hard to discover). Orienting LL corners takes one simple algorithm, which, if you're that far, you should know by now (the Sexy Move). All in all, it's entirely possible for a complete beginner to, with enough time and logical thinking, consistently be able to solve the cube. The difficulty is learning, and the fact that there's so many configurations to learn solutions for.

+Josiah Winslow And my base is "without" time and effort. If you know you have to do cross and F2L and stuff, you are already not a complete beginner. Most people I talk to can at least finish one side and have no idea what to do next, possibly because they don't want to destroy the finished (and therefore locked) part, or perhaps know that temporary destruction has to be involved but don't how to do it. We know it's actually not hard. We also know it's easier than quintillions of combinations don't mean much in practice; it doesn't matter to us, neither to beginners. I do not believe they are the source of perceived difficulty.

do you think finding one solved state in 43 quintillion is easy?
