@@Ghost19_ Not sure if I can describe it very well, but basically, when you turn a side, the pieces all go in a circle, so they make it so that the pieces are all rounded to fit that circle perfectly.

imo if you know how to solve a 5x5 or 6x6, you're pretty much all set. if you know how to create centers, edges, and fix oll parity you can think of the 21x21 as a larger version of a 5x5/6x6
Hey John You can do it with only 5x5x5 knowledge if you also learn center commutators, plus doing the ring thing he showed in the video including bringing the other pieces for the bar from the previous rings down for easier insertion helps a lot with larger puzzles like this.
This definitely seems like it would be more fun with a digital cube. The occasional popped piece was truly terrifying, but even just turning the thing seemed like an absolute pain.
Impressed. At Xmas 1980 an old pal I hadn't seen for a while suggested we meet at a bar for dinner. When I arrived he was playing with one of these new Rubic's Cubes. After half an hour I decided that he was just twisting the thing at random as we talked. As dinner arrived, after an hour, he tossed it to me, saying Merry Christmas! So I now had a cube that I had never seen in its solved state. There were "how to books" available but there would be no fun in following a recipe, so I spent a couple of weeks learning some basic moves, and after I had a set of basic moves worked out, I was ready. I created an algebra, wrote down my cube's position, and a list of moves to solve it. Some of those moves required 12 twists to get one result, and several required 4 of those moves. So certainly not an optimal solution, but it did work. Its over 40 years since I last saw those notes. I wish I had them as evidence now :-)
That was insane! I can't even imagine trying to tackle that puzzle. And the fact that the pieces aren't solid enough to not pop out doesn't help. The moment a piece came out, I'd be like, "uhhh...so much for THAT puzzle.."

@@kenbrunet6120 As someone who doesn't know how to solve a 3x3, my philosophy was to solve each side without moving the already solved sides, so I never got anywhere.

I meant that there is nothing else to learn. The process of learning a 6x6 from knowing a 5x5 is the same as learning anything else from knowing a 5x5, and 5x5 is itself not a huge leap from 4x4 if you have a solid understanding of what's going on.
You were right on par with a time-lapse of somebody solving one of these I saw a ways back. Great solve! I would have been totally hopeless upon a piece falling out.
Now that you’ve solved the physical version, you should see how much time you can shave by using a digital version. Also, do you think it would be faster to solve the cube by disassembling and reassembling it?
I might try a cube simulator! Also it would definitely be slower to reassemble than to just solve. It would be harder to find the right piece, I still only solve one piece at a time. In my solve I average about 9-10 seconds per piece solved, and reassembling would take so much longer than that to get a piece to attach.

Jeez back when I was in high school my Rubiks brand 4x4x4 would barely stay together. The quality and variety of brands for cubes now a days blows my mind. And no longer have to worry about stickers either. Impressive solve, you really have it down to an intuitive level to be able to understand what kind of algorithms to use on a cube size you’ve never solved before.

The reviews on the product page for this are hilarious: "Could never have a better cube for Speedcubing. Definitely would take to a comp for practice " 5 stars
Truly incredible. The dedication you put into your career, your videos, and your cube solves is truly inspiring. Also thank you for teaching me CFOP. My pb went for 46 to 15 in just 2 weeks!
Amazing. What's also amazing is "How the hell was it put together?!" And from reading the comments section I think you should do a video on the inside of the cube. And maybe pull one apart completely and then reassemble it.
Holy heckin' heck dude - massive respect for the sheer amount of endurance and patience this must have taken. I'm away to look up what's inside one of these things - my mind boggles at how complex the pieces that fell out look.
Don’t care how easy or hard this puzzle is, if a piece breaks off and you’re managing to fix it on top of Fixit to solve the puzzle, you are a genius or a God when it comes to these puzzles. God bless you, man you’re awesome!😂
I think the hardest thing about this cube js that you cannot hold it normally, so executing algorithms such like the parity one is pretty much impossible by muscle memory
Your amazing man. So humble. I know that I will never have a chance to solve the 21x21, but if I did, then my first thought probably would be, "Wow, I'm so blessed to have this opportunity."
I remember when I was teaching myself different algorithms on a traditional cube, and my mom's boyfriend's son was visiting us. Found my half-solved cube and proceeded to mix it up when I wasn't in the room. I was pretty irritated by that. I can only imagine how I'd feel if somebody scrambled up a 21x21 cube I'd been working on!
It's refreshing that you didn't make this a time-lapse and really showed the process compared to other attempts on youtube. My anxiety skyrocketed when that piece fell on towards the end too lol
I learned how to solve a cube when I was a kid when the Rubik’s cube first came out. I decided to learn how to solve a 4x4 last week. Watching you solve this cube made the moves in the 4x4 solve make a lot more sense. Thanks for a great video!
This is how long it takes me to find the white cross on a regular cube. The fact you could figure this out at all, let alone so quickly on your first attempt is mind boggling.
this makes the number cube i got as a freebie promotion from a movie back in the early 2000's look like a joke, and that cube made me crazy. it was a standard rubik's cube, but also with 1-9 on the faces, and you had to get the colors and the numbers in order.
Words cannot describe your persistance to spend over 6 entire hours of nonstop turning (and pop fixing). This is what encourages me to keep on going when solving big rubik's cubes myself. Also, I just want to ask where you bought that cube from and how much it costs. I really enjoy solving big cubes from how time consuming and endurance-testing it is. I haven't seen any more videos of you solving the 21x21 though, and I was wondering if you would still play with it. It has been my dream to solve such a big cube like a 21x21, and I was wondering if I could buy it off you for a decent price (you may know that cubes as big as these can become very expensive, being around 1500 american dollars). I do understand if you do not accept this deal, so I would also like to ask where is the best platform to buy big rubik's cubes.
Setting this up/lubing would be absolute pain. Being the people who put it together would be absolute pain. This being a WCA event would be absolute pain. But being on a plane, and this exploding in your bag Would be absolute *_HELL_*

Jeez back when I was in high school my Rubiks brand 4x4x4 would barely stay together. The quality and variety of brands for cubes now a days blows my mind. And no longer have to worry about stickers either. Impressive solve, you really have it down to an intuitive level to be able to understand what kind of algorithms to use on a cube size you’ve never solved before.

“I hate V perms”
I think this cube broke him
Yeah that was an A perm wasnt it
Well, considering how confusing the cube can be I guess yes LOL.
Yep, the easiest way to one-side recognise a V perm is that the two corners attached to the V block don't match - in this case they matched, so it was an A perm.
I was internally yelling: no its an A-perm!!!! same color on the corners surrounding the solved 3
good thing he got a j perm afterward
Fun fact: he took less time than wolrd record of 15×15
wait seriously? damn
Sweet!
What? Some people have solved the 15x15 in under 3 hours...

Good idea
Nice idea
He gets money so yea

You can tell that he was laughing to cover his insanity when a 1500 dollar cube he bought almost broke XD 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He didn't buy it it was bought by SCS
This is inconceivable that you were able to pull this off. That was simply amazing.❤
You should try solving it into a checkerboard pattern.
lmao he will literally die

that would be his last upload

If you feel bad for him solving this, imagine what editing the video must have been like😥

Truly incredible. The dedication you put into your career, your videos, and your cube solves is truly inspiring. Also thank you for teaching me CFOP. My pb went for 46 to 15 in just 2 weeks!
Cfop really is magical, I went from 49 avg to 19 avg now I just have to look ahead on my f2l pairs better lol
How do you do cfop so fast lol I use it and only get 1 min
@@AzraJ i dont think the cube is the main problem
@@TestDummy1029 Geez how do you even do it in 1 min lol
screwing up the V perm and then ending it with a J perm is the most J Perm way to end the 21x21 solve
Amazing. What's also amazing is "How the hell was it put together?!" And from reading the comments section I think you should do a video on the inside of the cube. And maybe pull one apart completely and then reassemble it.
That would take way too much effort for him I think 😅
Like I would die of anxiety if my £1000+ cube couldn’t assemble properly again haha
Holy heckin' heck dude - massive respect for the sheer amount of endurance and patience this must have taken.
I'm away to look up what's inside one of these things - my mind boggles at how complex the pieces that fell out look.
Only one word can describe this: hell
Don’t care how easy or hard this puzzle is, if a piece breaks off and you’re managing to fix it on top of Fixit to solve the puzzle, you are a genius or a God when it comes to these puzzles. God bless you, man you’re awesome!😂
I think the hardest thing about this cube js that you cannot hold it normally, so executing algorithms such like the parity one is pretty much impossible by muscle memory
The craziest thing about this for me is how well the cube turns without just breaking all the time with all of those little moving parts.
It's like $1500 so it's gotta be made well
Your amazing man. So humble. I know that I will never have a chance to solve the 21x21, but if I did, then my first thought probably would be, "Wow, I'm so blessed to have this opportunity."
J Perm: "Even something as simple as this is going to take a while"
Me: "Oh no, I know a wizard when I see one! You cant fool me with your spells"
I remember when I was teaching myself different algorithms on a traditional cube, and my mom's boyfriend's son was visiting us. Found my half-solved cube and proceeded to mix it up when I wasn't in the room. I was pretty irritated by that. I can only imagine how I'd feel if somebody scrambled up a 21x21 cube I'd been working on!

It's refreshing that you didn't make this a time-lapse and really showed the process compared to other attempts on youtube. My anxiety skyrocketed when that piece fell on towards the end too lol

Impressive! Watching this kinda helped me see exactly what was going on opposed to a regular cube that people solve in 3 seconds.

Cube: are you sure about that
I learned how to solve a cube when I was a kid when the Rubik’s cube first came out.
I decided to learn how to solve a 4x4 last week. Watching you solve this cube made the moves in the 4x4 solve make a lot more sense.
Thanks for a great video!
This is how long it takes me to find the white cross on a regular cube. The fact you could figure this out at all, let alone so quickly on your first attempt is mind boggling.
It's all just memorized techniques
23:32 i cried inside, i know that pain right there
21x21 is more scary than any of the horror movie ever made 😳
As someone who has never understood the concept of solving a regular sized cube, watching this is mind blowing to me 😂

13:45 I'll be honest, I would have been impressed if this hadn't happened at some point. This cube seems super delicate.
this makes the number cube i got as a freebie promotion from a movie back in the early 2000's look like a joke, and that cube made me crazy. it was a standard rubik's cube, but also with 1-9 on the faces, and you had to get the colors and the numbers in order.
Wow! It was just fate that it ended with a J perm! Maybe that was the universes way of congratulating you for finishing this large puzzle! 🎉
It was an A perm but he did a V perm so it ended with a J perm
JPerm: *Solves 21 x 21*

@Omg_x1000 DrOof You mean Slavecode?
Big respect for you solving the 21x21, mad patience
Words cannot describe your persistance to spend over 6 entire hours of nonstop turning (and pop fixing). This is what encourages me to keep on going when solving big rubik's cubes myself.
Also, I just want to ask where you bought that cube from and how much it costs. I really enjoy solving big cubes from how time consuming and endurance-testing it is. I haven't seen any more videos of you solving the 21x21 though, and I was wondering if you would still play with it. It has been my dream to solve such a big cube like a 21x21, and I was wondering if I could buy it off you for a decent price (you may know that cubes as big as these can become very expensive, being around 1500 american dollars). I do understand if you do not accept this deal, so I would also like to ask where is the best platform to buy big rubik's cubes.
7 months later but its 1.5k dollars lol, you can buy it on the cubicle pretty sure
Setting this up/lubing would be absolute pain.
Being the people who put it together would be absolute pain.
