Man Blind Solves Rubik’s Cube In A Very Different Way

A man's incredibly impressive Rubik's Cube skills have gone viral.

In the clip, which was shared on Reddit, he can be seen playing around with the cube, throwing it up into the air and catching it before setting it down on the table seemingly incomplete.

He gives the first cube the once over, before picking up a second cube and getting to work.

Without taking another glance at the first one, the man manages to successfully recreate the exact pattern on the second one.

Pretty blowing, eh?

And even more so when you consider he did it in under a minute.

The remarkable stunt has wowed Reddit users, with one person writing: "How tf do you even remember the positions of every square.

"There has to be a trick to this right? Right?

"Or does he just have superhuman short term memory?"

Another added: "At first I thought he 'just' memorised the sequence. Then I remembered he was juggling the first cube. WHAT?"

While another joked: "Meanwhile, I forget my four digit ATM PIN."

A fourth person wrote: "I just want to know what is going through his head as he does this. Does he think differently than me? Because I don't know what I would think to do this. Can't compute."

'Speedcubing' is the term used for super fast Rubik's Cube solving. The current world record is held by Yusheng Du, who managed to solve one in an unfathomable 3.47 seconds.

While, American Max Park holds the record for the fastest time to solve a 3x3x3 cube with just one hand - in 6.82 seconds.

And Jakub Kipa finished one with his feet in 20.57 seconds.

The World Cube Association (WCA) Rubik's Cube World Championships is held every two years and sees thousands of competitors vying to set a new record.

Meanwhile, a robot named Sub1 Reloaded has successfully smashed all human times after completing one in 0.637 seconds.

The robot built by Albert Beer from Germany who 'calculated a solution with Tom Rokicki's extremely fast implementation of Herbert Kociemba's Two Phase Algorithm', according to Guinness World Records.
