New world champion 2008 rubiks 3x3x3 blindfolded

[magma84]

I can see highest level visual thinking skill here

[GeOlicar]

How can any person memorize 20 pieces positions in 15 seconds? It doesn't seem very fair to me...

[DaOblit]

@GeOlicar people can remember alot of stuff in a few seconds short term memory some people can cram like crazy.

[stuganErik1337]

He just did as fast as i do it unfolded :)

[TheRubixGuy]

insanity

[o71130247]

still fast without finger tricks

[TheEgoFanBoy1]

How could you do that blindfolded? 

[gil4real82]

how does he do that?

[testlertank]

@gil4real82 as far as i know its along the lines of memorizing the location of each square the once blindfolded visualizing yourself solving the cube as you do it like paint a mental picture and seeing it change move by move in your head

[GBJ83]

so fake

[MIKEWADESMITH]

@GBJ83 NOT FAKE IT'S REAL

[codepoke122]

well its defenitly not rewinded

[iyangize]

i like it

[lawiincarnation]

so, what's these guys' IQ and how superb they can visualized that in their heads??!!

[SuperUtubewhore]

@lawiincarnation its actually not as hard as you would think, you just have to know a bunch of algorithms, but they are easy to memorize because they are so short. i have attemted to do it but was not commited enough

[musli4brekkies]

15 second memo?!

That's some serious seriousness there.

[xUlquiorraxCiferx]

it seems werid how would he have known he solved it

[marinlarin]

inform yourself and then comment

[xUlquiorraxCiferx]

just saying if how would he have known that he solved it without looking

[EVANTHETOON]

@xUlquiorraxCiferx He memorizes the cube first then solves it. It is still really hard. At my school, I told some kids I could do the rubik's cube blindfolded (which I can) and they saw me studying the cube before I solved it. I had to explain to them that blind solving is not just doing a bunch of random moves and hoping you get lucky, it is previsualizing the solve before you start solving it.

[KnowledgeReference]

@xUlquiorraxCiferx During the memorisation time, he either plans what he has to do, or how it looks. Then while he is solving it, he updates his mind on how it looks.

[sanchilz]

wow...,

[thepinoys]

is he the first to solve it blindfolded under a min?

[LNOL]

No.

[Ihaterubikscubes]

officialy, yes

[eddie6151995]

there are people who have done it in sub-40 for bld

[ben1996123]

ville seppanen has done it in 24 seconds (memo and solving!)

[supernatural093]

woah.... taht was Sugoi! Incredible!

[rowehess]

lol i love how he does M2. Rafal is amazing

[jemar200]

wow ive goten solves like that with my eyes open but that that there is amazing with only a 17 second evaluation

[cin9247]

How can Rafal be the world champion 2008, when there wasn't a world championship this year?

[000781227000]

when is it this year?

[cin9247]

I meant "that year", 2008.

[000781227000]

is there a world championship every year?

like last year it was in budapest or was it the euro that was the world champion chip

[DaOblit]

@cin9247 read the description it says Polish Open 2008 ... jumping to conclusions you can still set a world record when there aren't world championships as long as you do it at an official competition.

[cin9247]

@DaOblit read the title.

[DaOblit]

@cin9247 i did read the title there is a description for more information you don't want the title of the video to be like something very long.

[cin9247]

@DaOblit So you did read the title and didn't notice that it contains false information?

[DaOblit]

@cin9247 idk if its false information or not but as long as you set a record for something in an official competition it is considered as a new record if the competition allows that you can also claim world champ titles.

[DaKrazedKyubizt]

that'd be better if his M2s were a little better.

[blssdfall27]

Yu Nakajima is next!!

[rowehess]

nah

[blssdfall27]
