i could never do it not more than two sides at any one time :$


It's funny, coz most people see that as the most logical approach, even though it's not the way to solve it. Bottom layer, middle layer, then top layer is deffo the easiest. There's also a "corners first" method, but I've never looked into that, and the lars petrus method, which is well odd, lol


There was this one girl who I lived with at uni who swore blind to me that she "once did 5 sides". I was like, erm, no you didn't. Yeah but I did. No you didn't, lol coz you couldn't have done 5 without solving it completely! :cops:

Aye, she didn't really have an answer to come back with lol

The method I use (in that vid above) is mostly the "Fridich" method, after Jessica Fridich. It's the layers method, but you do the first two in one go. Rubik's cube

I can do it in 7mins - and 35 seconds.....or somtimes quicker, depending on how easy it comes appart, and how fast i can re-asemble the dam thing

me too lol my mum thought I was going to be a genius, told all the family that I could do the cube at the tender age of 7 lol they loved me for it as well. just turn onside half turn and then crack the fooker open and put it back :)

Also did the old spoon bending trick as well, got caught though bending me nans spoons lol get this though !!!!!!!! It wasnt a case of I couldnt do it cause I was caught bending them, my faminly thought that I could bend anyone elses spoons but not my nans and they thought it was something to do with her having more power being head of the family !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its no wonder im fooked up ! lol
