    Lol! part1 video is clever specially the first portion hehe. When I was young and couldn't solve rubiks, I was really so frustrated. Last year I've learned solving rubiks and now I can amaze my friends doing it. Though, I can do it in 5 minutes and never really improved on my time LOL!

    You're doing great job Megal! 5star for you!

    Great lens. The Cube drove me mad and never managed to solve it. "Lost" mine when I was 12. At least that was what I told my parents. Actually took it apart to try and put it together as if I had solved it and be the envy of all my frieds. Unfortunately lost one of the blocks! Dough...

    Thats not something that is possible with the new Rubik 360. Looks as challenging as the Cube but different. Check out my lens if you want to know more.

The 'Rubiks Cube' is a 3-D mechanical puzzle invented in 1974 by Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Ern? Rubik.

Originally called the "Magic Cube",[http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1112396/Driven-mad-Rubiks-nut-weeps-solving-cube--26-years-trying.html Driven mad' Rubik's nut weeps on solving cube... after 26 years of trying], Daily Mail Reporter, 12th January 2009. the puzzle was licensed by Rubik to be sold by Ideal Toys in 1980 and won the German Game of the Year special award for Best Puzzle that year. As of January 2009, 350 million cubes have sold worldwide making it the world's top-selling puzzle game.Marshall, Ray. Squaring up to the Rubchallenge. icNewcastle. Retrieved August 15, 2005. It is widely considered to be the world's best-selling toy.

In a classic Rubik's Cube, each of the six faces is covered by 9 stickers, among six solid colours (traditionally white, red, blue, orange, green, and yellow). A pivot mechanism enables each face to turn independently, thus mixing up the colours. For the puzzle to be solved, each face must be a solid colour.

Similar puzzles have now been produced with various numbers of stickers, not all of them by Rubik. The original 3×3×3 version celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary in 2005.
