I literally can't help but tear up when I watch this now, knowing that I used to be just a kid whose dream was to be good at this one day, and now here I am sitting at top 20 in the world, just waiting to compete again. Maciej said it greatly, this is my favorite UA-cam video and honestly might be the best cubing video on youtube ever.
I used to watch this video like every day, probably around 2017. Man. Makes me tear up. I miss this generation of cubers... Kevin Hays, little Feliks - bunch of loveable weirdos :)
i have seen this video at least one hundred times and it is one of the best videos of cubing. seen it i cant wait for the world championship or all the times that i can have a tournament Chris olson u r great
the nationals was in a fancy cubing related place with tons of rooms and more cool features like the giant rubiks cube,make your own cube, and a dozen more. The worlds however, was in a giant spaced out room with tables
It's amazing to see how much improvement has been made in 3 years, and to see that 90% of the people filmed eventually broke a record. (I know, this is extremely late.)
Can someone tell me what a typical day is like at a big cubing competitions like this? How are day 1 and day 2 different? Do you need to be present on both days?

At 0:33, the song was stating "Don't hold back. " I'm here thinking "Oh, ok, I guess the giant cube will fall if it doesn't "hold back".
So well done! I'm Drew's (totally favorite and cool) aunt. Thanks for making this, I am sharing it.
"Moral Support to keep Chris sane" LOL

Great job you guys. Very well done.

What a great video, such an hard job, just thank you Chris, it was amazing! :)
Looking back at this, I missed these times.
Went to US Nationals in 2010. Still one of the greatest competition I've ever been. Makes the half-world trip worthy!
Amazing Video and amazing comp. I wish I had been there...
Great vid I can not wait to go next year for my first time to nationals!
Your "incredibly hard" work definitively payed off! Nice video!
Couldn't find myself anywhere in the video. :( If you would have just moved to the left a little bit after the 6 second NAR you would have seen me.

It's amazing to see how much improvement has been made in 3 years, and to see that 90% of the people filmed eventually broke a record. (I know, this is extremely late.)

+Skeeter Plays, Its called MOmENTS LIKE THIS- by the afters
Little Patrick Ponce 9:11
This was such a beautifully made video
I think the kid at 7:21 is andy smith, why does he always wear headphones?
He probably does it to block out the noise of the crowd, which might make him nervous, or maybe he just concentrates better with the silence.
UnknownCubing maybe
Great music choice!
Jbacubing I think so!!!
wow. this video was very well made.
good job

Amazing video guys. I'm adding to favourites.

1:30 is that Mats?
This is just as good as LaserMonkey's!
Hello there I am trying to see what cubes people use most. Please comment what your main is and maybe how you set it up.
What was his time at 6:42
7:42 "Slow all down for a minute so I can take it in." Tell that to the guy solving the Rubik's cube in under ten seconds...
what was the first music played in this video?
1:30 Is it Mats valk?
yes
***** yessssss
Zorm yessssssssss
I'm surprised by the fact that he's as fast as me at pyra, maybe I'm even faster
I want to go to one of these competitions just to meet these guys cuz they all look so nice and genuine
This video is pretty motivating for those that are practicing to become sub 20 like me, very cool ^^
Agreed! I'm trying to get sub-15, and this is just awesome and serves as great motivation!

Really nice video ! Thank you.
Can someone tell me what a typical day is like at a big cubing competitions like this? How are day 1 and day 2 different? Do you need to be present on both days?
It depends on what events you do and if you place well enough to go to round 2. For example, pyraminx was day one, but 3x3 round 1 was on day 2.
Me during FMC :p
But wow, best Nats movie yet.

Isn't this the place where Felik's Zemdegs made his 48s 5x5 WR???
Yes, but he broke that 2 times since then, the record is 46.97 now. Feliks still has it though.
