[simplegrl11589]

[smileyface19991]

either this is a confusing tutorial or im really stupid. i say both lol :)

[hsnewrain]

dudeee you are the best i swear

u won me money

[allstar2719]

I learned this method from Tyson's DVD. It's also the method Will Smith learned for The Pursuit if Happyness. Pretty cool

[hightopdrums]

Hey its Jackie Chan!

[agavelinaazul]

this asian guy is awesome

[JBoogie300]

Lol i met him several times

[lylrocker]

I love asian people!!!!! he helped me so much and i actually solved it!! :D

[JBMoevies]

This is the best how to solve video on YouTube! I can do it now! :D

[multypresedent]

1 step: I figured that a green center is on the bottom. What should I do?

[abcdefghijklmno12705]

what do you do if there is always a yellow on each box

[WSSAMRPT]

Tyson, I am going to be completely honest with you.This is the best guide of how to solve the rubik's 3x3 , i searched all over and could not find a guide as good as this one, im stuck on the step 4 thanks for your awsome guide i hope you make a 2x2 one

[MrTctctc]

i get stuck on stage five!! i had an old cube where blue is oppisite white!! can any one help me with stage 5??

[supermunchkin00281]

this method rocks it now only takes me 34 secs to solve it , and my record is 25.73!!!

[TheCubeinator]

check out my rubiks cube video in the video response

[arjsorasan1]

this is definetly the best solution for beginner

[tsutaetakute]

You're amazing, :)

[KHRaccoon]

I can personally say that with this basic method, it IS in fact possible to get 30 seconds or under. :)

[yankjet318]

ten times better than dan browns method... my best is 56 seconds and i've only known how to do it for about a week!

[yankjet318]

@Skedooosh way to be over four months late..

[TLbrawl4]

i like how he chooses 'yellow' side first :)

[thesoundcanal]

In step 6, I got 3 yellows on the corners. Someone is messing with me? Haha. I seriously did.

[jaibhakti]

PS Thank you for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm for the cube with others. You are a GREAT teacher!

[jaibhakti]

Tyson, I bought myself the "Rubik's You Can Solve It" cube & DVD for Christmas because I have permanent nerve damage in my left hand; I thought working with the cube would help with my dexterity. I couldn't wait til the 25th and started watching the DVD last nite. I had planned on making one of my 2011 New Year's Resolutions: Solve the cube: visually comprehend the mechanics and solving techniques.

I HAVE JUST SOLVED THE CUBE!

Now I want to UNDERSTAND the entire solving process! THANKS!

[MrBLOCKtv]

WOW i've been looking for these vids a long time be cause i forgot how to solve the cube and my dvd is messed up. THANKS A LOT MAN!

[RecuerdasCuando]

Thanks to this vid my best time is 2 min ! lol

[skatercuber4life]

I average 18 seconds but I so should have learnt this method first because there are no x2 rotations just like the full fridrich method. I learnt it through dan browns original method which made it really hard 2 adjust to 1 look oll and pll and cross on bottom.

[darkreaper500]

hey umm so far im at the yellow cross but i have 2 corners instead of 1 like u have in the video, i did the turning and twisting crap twice but i ended up having the same results as before. how do i get the 2 remaining yellow pieces on the top?

[skatercuber4life]

@darkreaper500 he tells u what 2 do about that @ 9:31.

[darkreaper500]

@skatercuber4life ok thx man

[tomaatje1]

Easiest way of learning how to solve a Rubik's cube. You can mix up the color's if you know what you're doing. A step further to Fridrich :P.

Thanks so much for your video. This was the first video that actually thought me from scratch and in extreme detail how to solve the little bugger :P.

[ProStone713]

thank you for teaching been doing this method for about know my record in 15.04 seconds. thanks again

[EuniceServando]

thanks for your teaching

[EuniceServando]

u rock tyson ur the best

[D1337Viper]

Believe it or not, this was the guy that taught Will Smithy to solve the Rubik's Cube for the movie "The pursuit of Happiness."

[TheSimpleDudeOne]

MAAN I CANT MAKE THEE FUCK*NG CROOSS !!!!!:@:@:@

[SuperMfreeman]

What if the side pieces are alredy lined up:(

[ADDDDdXXX]

oh god he's making me crazy....i'm been doing as same as he said but it became more scrambled.......

[NickManor]

This is great!!! I've developped my own tricks after watching this video and have been cubing for about a week and a half now and I've got an average of 56 seconds!! :D

My record is now 44 seconds :)

[FireStormBaller]

I don't like the beginning method. Why don't you just put the white edges with the white center. Why put the white edges with the yellow center, makes it confusing for beginners, and waste time.

[huggaz]

@FireStormBaller easier for noobs to line up the corresponding side colors.

[FireStormBaller]

It's the same if you go to the white.

[t3amtomahawk]

I remember learning with this guy! My best time is 44 seconds w/ this method!

I gave up trying to learn it blindfolded. :D

[NikiSmile1224]

ummmthanks but i think he did the same step 2 times.... :)

[senseirubix]

Can you please make a tutorial on how to solve the cube blindfolded?

[TheTumboos]

@senseirubix You just need to practise the algorithm. I suppose that way you'll eventually get it.

[thisisminiman]

Hmm, this an interesting way of solving it.

[Snipernoa1]

i saw you like a year ago on tv like a show u had to solve questions u knowd tghem all but that girl din't

[NoirFan01]

Too bad Tyson didn't last longer on "Beauty and the Geek." He's attractive for a geek.

[goddamnshawtsnapin3]

here's a tip for you cube lovers... DO NOT BUY THE ONES WITH PICTURES ON THEM only the ones with colors the ones with the pictures (some kinds) get flipped upside down and it's IMPOSSIBLE to get them back to the right way

[huggaz]

@goddamnshawtsnapin3 What are you talking about, you can take a cube apart and put it back together the right way, so its never impossible to get them the right way. You must have taken your cube apart and put it back together incorrectly, because they cube doesnt just change positions unless you take it apart.

[goddamnshawtsnapin3]

well that was years ago when i experienced it

[hobodude47]

this s the method i did when i learned it...im starting to do the keyhole mthod now

[lubo124]

Thanxu so much now i can slove the rubix's kube for 2 minutes

[DWAx1999]

i bought a rubik's cube that came with a DVD and this guys in the video

[saaddapunkrocker]

yo dwax1999 same here

[goddamnshawtsnapin3]

me too! (the girl in the video was hawt)

[stanray1]

dan brown exsplain awesomer :)

[saaddapunkrocker]

dan brown does pretty much the same thing but he combines the steps and calls it an algorithm.

[cononkudo]

thank u such!

[piemaster52]

tyson your awesome!

[zeeneo]

Question about Step 4...

Sometimes I'll have a yellow piece in the middle part either facing me or on top and no other colours can match to finish the stage off. I'm currently just matching the facing colour which resolves this but possibly is adding an extra move or two.

Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be great.

[shamah02]

This vid is a classic... I watched this video like 2 years ago on the official rubik's cube site to learn how to solve the cube.

[stevengriffin1]

how did he find this out?

[EvilTwinsProductions]

Hey, When I Try to Make The Bottom Yellow Cross(or Bottom) near the end, i do F U R Ui Ri Fi, it no work i did 7 times, still no work, held it right way, still no work, please respnd

[SweetPhantasee]

Hey man! :)

Just saw a rerun of that show "Beauty and the Geek" on tv 5 min ago, and i noticed you were a rubik record holder.

So, then i did a google on you and first found you doing it blindfolded on CNN, and that pretty darn cool :)

Now im watching this one and i pretty impressed.. your a very talented and cool guy!

Take care and good luck,man :)

[HorrorStorm]

Thanks, I couldn't solve a rubik's cube until watching your video. My personal best 3:30

[rubiksvideos]

Just keep practicing :D

[nace112]

wow my personal best is 12.61 seconds.

i use the fridrich method. its way faster than this stupid beginners method.

[xXMASTEROFMAGICXx]

how do u understand it?

[nace112]

this is so easy.

i dont use this method because it sucks.

i know Full Fridrich

[SirJohnamus]

This method doesn't suck. It's just basic. If you notice, you do the exact same thing with Fridrich, only you combine steps. I know full Fridrich too, so you can't say I don't know what I'm talking about.

So it doesn't suck.

[nace112]

yes it does. it sucks for speedsolving.

and no its very different than fridrich.

so yes it does suck compared to other methods.

[fonziefritos]

6:50 ok ok

[fonziefritos]

7:05 sorry... had to save that for studying ^^

[SimonB7EA]

Thank you Tyson Mao,I understand everything,but on step 2,you should slow your talking down. =]

[MuhdAnuar1992]

is e teaching the beginners method?

[rubiksvideos]

yes

[password12345]

if u have 3 yellow stickers someone is messing around with u. lol

[sk8freak9000]

this sucks its too confusing

[Tofuman452]

hows it confusing? its because him i can slove it easily.... u could pause the video

[ROCKoutPLZZZ]

is there a certain pattern to solving this?

[kitkatscottwayne]

..thanks for helping me...my new best time 54.68 sec

[SnakeshockCP]

cool

[animekid1357]

Have you made part 2 yet
