it's kind of hard to have a rubik's cube demonstration without colored illustrations. Imagine black and white instructions, now that would be challenging.
open up your brain with a knife, steal a geniuses brain, and insert it into your own skull. I tried that once and it worked! I switched the brains back though because the genius wasn't good with women.
That's more than 5 steps. I have no idea how you earned $4,000 for this video!
For you guys that want to learn, here's some better instructions. Type this into google, Beginner Solution to the Rubik's Cube, and click the first link.
you make it so difficult to understand and to follow the directions.
and i think most people go from bottom to top after the first layer i rate this poorly
just for your effort 2 stars
the mistake here in this tutorial is that words are speaken before action. how can we understand every step if you speak continuously but the action does not correspond to your every word?!?!!!! one of the poorest tutorials ever made!
this make my mind boggle more than before i watched your other technique!
To many moves for the average Joe to remember. He said the last layer had two steps. But there are so many real steps to finish it. I use three steps to do the bottom. I get the cross then the three corners swap then three corners flip. I use 1 step for each step. No looking at the cube saying I need to do it this way. One different way then I would show you. You do look at the cube but not to see it you use a different step because you use the same step each step. 3 steps each step has only one way of doing it
too confusing, i can do the cube easy and know a better way. in the forth step i had no idea what he was doing????

yeah right, step 4 seems so hard to understand. i think the tutor wants to save time, haha! it's the worst tutorial i have watched! i cannot get it!
If you have clear mind you'll understand

Try to focus on the vid and have a rubiks with you and try to follow and understand the instructions and you probably solve it like me. It wouldn't earn $3,060 if its not clear....
doesn't work. They won't go back on. I can't tell you how many people have come up to me at school when I'm solving my cube and say "I have no idea how to do it, I just take the stickers off."
When Rubiks cubes first came out, I got a booklet (written by a 12 year old) (I still have it). Following his instructions I was able to solve it, but it still took at least a half hour for me, even with good instructions!!!
take a screwdriver to a edge peace use the screwdriver as a wedge and take it apart then put together appropreately (last peace is hard i like to slam it to a table)
This following video will help you a lot if you are so frustrated and you just CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO IT:
http://www.metacafe.com/watch/454514/rubik_cube_solver/
was 99% done.. had to swap jus a few blocks.. but no soultions for it... i tried the last one.. and it totally messed it up.. grrrr.. but.. after 10 mins of redoing... i was back on track... compared to the 2 hours the first time... thanks for the help
I couldn't get this even if i had instructions for the instructions. My head hurts even thinking about the person actually figuring out how many possibilities the cubish thing has! > (
Clear as Mud...

I need to grow a brain - I hear they are really handy. For me, these instructions are clear as mud... but I am NOT giving up. I'm just gonna have to watch this a few more thousand times, I'm afraid...
i need a better explantion on the 3rd layer of solving the edge peices and corner peices.when i try to swap the corners peices the ones on the other side mess up too.also i need pretty much full explantion on the last layer.but you did awsome steps for first and second
This video is superb and it is perfect for an intelligent person who desperately wants to solve all the puzzles under the sky. This needs patience and surely needs intereset from inside. This one is not for those who looks at the negative side of the video leaving the abundant information present on the postive side. I never thought I can complete the cube in my life time. Now I am so confident that I can do it 'n' number of times. Thanks a lot!!!
I solve it but i still don't understand spet 4!!! I always fix the two corners, the one next to each other..then what? and part 2?? I red the posts but,,,I'm too blonde :P
WTF kind of number is 43, 252, 003, 274, 489, 856, 000.
mmmmmkaay so all I have to do is put the corner piece to the end and take the recipitcal of that and put it on the end then change everything back to normal but be careful no to bla bla bla or else this will happen. Yea thanks mmmmmkaay
okay the rubik's cube has 9 squares to a side
it looks like this (ill add numbers to make a diagram) [1][2][3]
[4][5][6]
[7][8][9]
for the first step you try and get 2,4,6,and 8 to match on all sides the middle cube is the key(it cannot move)
.
trust me, "for step one, match the colors of an edge peice to both the top color and the side color" that makes no fuckin' sense.
with lots and lots and lots of colorful ilustrations and pictures
I need nothing less than a brain transplant.

it's kind of hard to have a rubik's cube demonstration without colored illustrations. Imagine black and white instructions, now that would be challenging.
this step confuses me. you aren't very clear about what exactly is being swapped here.
I get stuck at step three... he talks so confusing
http://www.metacafe.com/watch/537519/solve_the_cube_in_less_then_100_moves/
this would make a lot more sense if it used the same calculations found in the instructions that come with the cube...L,r,u,d,f,b
and pluck all the cubes out, and put them bak in order again. thats how u solve it.
take the stickers off and move them around
open up your brain with a knife, steal a geniuses brain, and insert it into your own skull. I tried that once and it worked! I switched the brains back though because the genius wasn't good with women.
Finally did it after 4.5 hours....
My first time in my entire life managed to solve it. Thanks for the video.
Glad I could help out - I'm no speed-cuber, but I do enjoy it.
is he taking the piss

I couldn't get this even if i had instructions for the instructions. My head hurts even thinking about the person actually figuring out how many possibilities the cubish thing has! > (
Whoever doesn't understand these instructions has mental problems. It's as clear as water ffs!
Grab a Rubik's cube and actually try it and pay attention, it's not hard at all.
Now all I need is a rubik's cube.
I need to grow a brain - I hear they are really handy. For me, these instructions are clear as mud... but I am NOT giving up. I'm just gonna have to watch this a few more thousand times, I'm afraid...

rubics cubes are for guys that have never had a girlfriend and live with their mom
WEird!!
i just take the stikers off and put them in the wright spot
I solve it but i still don't understand spet 4!!! I always fix the two corners, the one next to each other..then what? and part 2?? I red the posts but,,,I'm too blonde :P
reminds me of that simpsons episode where bart says "Spin the middle side topwise. Topwise!"
replay the f%$#ing video cause i'm sure the cube is still unsolve
this tutorial would be much easier if it was written down
WTF kind of number is 43, 252, 003, 274, 489, 856, 000.
mmmmmkaay so all I have to do is put the corner piece to the end and take the recipitcal of that and put it on the end then change everything back to normal but be careful no to bla bla bla or else this will happen. Yea thanks mmmmmkaay
<b>I thought this was going to be a serious instructional video, wasn't expecting a comedy! "43,252,003, 274,489,856,000 possible combinations."
Once you get over the mono-tone of this guys voice, you'll be completely lost in his unambiguous 'directions'
5 steps?
Yeah each step has 30 steps each.
I've devised a new method to stop having migraines over rubik's cube. 4 easy steps.
1 Take the cube in one hand
2 With your other hand, open a drawer
3 Put the cube in the drawer, close the drawer
4 Walk away
i hate rubiks cubes
okay the rubik's cube has 9 squares to a side
