It really took a few takes to get those tongue twisters right!

You know, I'd just like to say that after finding your channel and watching a bunch of your videos, I just ordered my first round of puzzles yesterday. I love what you're doing and I love the enjoyment from watching these puzzles get solved. It won't be too long until I'm puzzling right along beside you. Happy puzzling!
That's awesome! I hope you really enjoy the puzzles! Happy puzzling! :D
These videos are so calming. I love to watch them when I'm anxious and they always make me feel better.
I'm glad you enjoy them!
Annie Bush Me too! Plus they're super interesting

I've been doing all kind of puzzles since I was 5 years old and still doing them 45 years later... a logical thinking mind and good patience is the best tool anyone could have... great work FLEB....
Thank you very much! Patience is absolutely key! It can take an awfully long time to find the solution sometimes...
Teri Wilde so you’re fifty
This is probably one of my favourite puzzles I've seen on your channel so far. I really enjoy puzzles that on the surface look complicated but actually have a simple trick to opening them.
A video that uploaded on april fools day without any joke?Hmm..thats weird
jo gerakakis The fact that there's no prank is the prank. It's post-ironic pranking.
woooosh
I forgot that it was April fool's day!
what if the solution he gave was absolute bull, and thats the prank, ha gotya bichboys
I kept waiting for some kind of joke to hit and that the puzzle was going to have some really dumb solution, it sorta got me because it was just so expected
I love puzzles like this that look tricky but end up having fairly simply solutions! Sometimes I see people in the comments complaining that these types of puzzles are boring but I think they're awesome.
probably the only puzzle i was able to figure out before the video ended. Great content, keep up the good work!
Interesting puzzle! Thank you for sharing it with us.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH DAMMIT
That puzzle is actually really genius. A lot of these puzzles are!
I love how simple some of the solutions to these puzzles are. Sometimes its the ones that have the simplest solutions that are the most difficult.
Yeah! It really stumped me for a while before I figured this one out. It's one of those puzzles that when you see the solution you're like "Of course! How come I didn't see that earlier?"
I love handing puzzle like this to people who don't solve puzzle on a regular basis. I really love watching them try to figure it out and then I try and think of how their mind is working. At times it is so hard not to spoil it for them and give them tips. I accidentally did that to Michael (Vsauce) when I gave him the Delta Hanamaya puzzle. I felt bad about it do I am sending him my second Nemesis Factor (like I said in that other comment) I "accidentally" ordered a third one.... to take apart and see if I can add a headphone jack and a mute switch.
I love your videos!
The slot's not absolutely required, as the box wouldn't technically be *upopenable* without the coin... it would just require a thin screwdriver longer than the key+coin diameter.
Love ur vids man!
Your videos are a gift.
My wife and I watch your videos all the time Fleb; your channel is wonderful!
Thank you very much! I'm really glad that you enjoy them! :)
Awesome video!
Who else thought he would smash the box open. Because, ya know, he posted on April 1
I didn't like the solution of the puzzle to be honest, but I loved the reason there is a tiny slit to put the coin back in so that you can re-open it later
Wow, what a beautiful puzzle! It reminds me a bit of the metal sequential discovery puzzles of Wil Strijbos, a puzzle designer from the Netherlands. I am pretty sure you know him as well. This video made my day after a long and tiring day of hard work :-). Thanks for this, great stuff!
Throw it at the wall. Breaks open. BOOM. Box open.
Every time he does a hand gesture, take a shot.
I do not recommend this as you may become inebriated.
That would be dreadful!
whoaaaaaaaaa I challajjebfe lkie
FLEB If I get a cent every time
You'd have enough to do the box without a 20 cent coin of your own, just go to an arcade and get it changed
You also might be able to open the puzzle from the underside keyhole, by letting the coin lie flat next to the keyhole and rotate the key's tooth against the coin to push the back out.
Very cool, love your videos FLEB :)
Thank you!
If you like puzzle boxes so much.. try the game "The Rooms" on AppStore and stream
i love your vids man :-)
you have earned a new subscriber ;)
I love this channel ^-^
I'm glad that you enjoy it! :)
How did you get the name of FLEB?
I picked the name out several years ago as a name I used for writing puzzles, although people also called me by that name back when I was at MIT.
Ok cool i just wanted to know how you got that interesting name
honestly i don't care if he copied anybody because he makes good videos.
FLEB
"" people called me that back when i was at MIT ""
hmmm ... im guessing you never played the game humbled as a child?
HA HA HA ..sorry i just had to laugh at your phrazing but hell if i went to MIT id never take the T Shirt off 40 years larer.. well done !!! what an achievement... This country could do well with a few more proud engineers
prop
How could I be able to purchase this????
the only thing that came to my mind is putting the key in the coin slot flat horizontally, turn it 90°, then pull the key
I love this guys youtube name
Won't shaking it vigorously work as well as the coin will hit the back side with enough momentum to push it?
dbeautiful box
Good savings box
I think I would have preferred a latch on the top that required feeding coins into the slot, then inserting the key in to bottom to push them up into the latch mechanism
"The KEY thing I wanted to focus on" nice pun there 😉
This is the first puzzle I've seen from you that made me laugh out loud. I love these kinds of puzzles with a fairly simple solution and a bunch of red herrings.
Your the best puzzle tuber ever :)
Thank you!
Nice puzzle. But I instantly new how to open it
I want to see it 100000 times
This guy is way smart.
What I would do if I had these puzzles I would give it to him because I can't solve them.
I'll just be like:
"Oh a new puzzle?"
Goes onto UA-cam
Searches FLEB
You make great videos!
This could be an actual coin box, with a twist.
I ordered my 20 cent box from Germany. Took 3 weeks to get to me. When I checked it out, the 20 cent coin was missing. I used a nickel at first to get it open, but then I ordered a 20 cent Euro coin from Ebay. The 20 cent coin is slightly larger than the American nickel. Would have been nice if they would have included the 20 cent coin in the first place.
Hey Fleb, great work as always! What puzzles would you recommend for someone new to the hobby?
great video
Thank you!
Puzzle would be unopenable unless you stick a stronger magnet at the back and pull it or reverse it's polarity! 🤘
so crazy easy and yet you can spend hours solving it :D
Did you ever made your own puzzle? And how you get to the idea of solving puzzles and even making youtube videos the first time?
guys, the fool here is that everyone expected a fool but didnt get one
My favourite UA-camr is Fleb. Love theese puzzle videos.
Thank you very much!
... I'd love to see a joint venture between +FLEB and +BosianBill : the ultimate puzzle lock.
Puzzlelocks are a big class of mechanical puzzles! I haven't covered one yet, but stay tuned in the next few weeks...
cool, I look forward to it!
hitting the back against the table should also open it
the KEY thing was to... OMG YAAAAS XDDDDD
if the slot wasn't there you could use a magnet stronger than the ones in the box to move the back off again.
Cool
the back piece could be pushed through the small hole using a stick ?
I really like your videos and it's really fun of you going over so many puzzles. But where do you get all these puzzles from? A shop or what?
I solved it by using the coin to open the back with percussion. Didn't need the key.
what about knocking on it, it is a frequent trick used with magnets.
We need a 50 cent box
How to get the money
Use the key to smash the little see through panel thing
Honestly I thought you were going to smash it open with a hammer.
So the hole on the bottom was just a trick?
You mean the hole in the front face? There's a piece of clear plastic there that blocks anything from going in or out.
I think he means the keyhole in the bottom. I'm assuming its just a place to hold the key so you don't lose it.
It is nice I like it
LOL. I couldn't solve this puzzle because it shipped without a coin. No wonder. I was going crazy.
SUBSCRIBED!
this one is so simple
I'm sad.... I finished watching all the videos. Now I dun know what to do
Create a puzzle!
Put a lot of coins in and shake done
anyone else expecting a little more from this puzzle?
this might sound weird but you remind me of carlos from the podcast welcome to night vale, with your passion towards puzzles and solving them, like his to science and solving phenomenons your voice is similar to dylan marron’s who voices him
Trash. Just,Trash I listened to that podcast too but I don't rber anything from it
Looks like I would have opened it by putting another 20 20 cent coins in :), i thought of it immediately
the more smaller it will be the more harder it will be because there is not much space to add interactive things
So what is the purpose of the keyhole on the bottom? A red herring? Is Jean Claude known for doing such things with his puzzles?
Funny I solved it in less the 30seconds. Still a neat box and I have yet to come across anyone else to solve it.
I actually solved it in like 10 sec!!. Like seriously I saw the key and the whole and I was like....... YUP!
I thought the Joke was that you have to insert another 20cents in the slot to open it but ok😂
Make it the 50 cent box
i thought the purpose of the slot wss to use it as a piggy bank after ...
Hey there, where do I mechanical puzzles/wooden trick puzzle boxes etc? I'm very interest to start out but have no idea where to order :)
Not gunna lie I figured this out before he said it. Well the way to open it. Because I didn't have it in my hands. I feel like if this took you more then 2 min to complete there's an issue
Hi Fleb - love all your videos. Subscribed and thumbs up everything. But for the type of videos you do 1080P should be the minimum resolution you ever do. Do not make 720P videos - it is the wrong format, for the type of video you do.
hey I have this one too
Nice!
So, if i say, had a butterknife.
This is how 2000s kids open up cd cases.
hey no new uploads? kinda missing your videos
The solution is simple.... take the key, put it in the keyhole, grab a hammer, bust the box open with the hammer, grab coin, you win.
This is an interesting puzzle.
I thought it was really neat!
FLEB What type of coin was in the puzzle?
It was 20 euro cent coin, used in many countries in Europe.
MikaH Thanks for the info
Sorry I didn't respond more quickly! MikaH is correct!
I really would like purchase the box but every website I went to its out of stock. Anywhere I could find it?
Hey Fleb, this is my new favorite channel. Are there any great books or resources on puzzle design? If so, what are your suggestions
It depends on what types of puzzles!
For mechanical puzzles, I usually recommend
Puzzles Old and New - Slocum and Botermans
New Book of Puzzles - Slocum and Botermans
Creative Puzzles of the World - Van Delft and Botermans
These three books show you a lot of classic mechanical puzzles while also showing you how to make some of them. Once you get more into it, there are more specialized books, but these give a good overview of what's been done and show you a little bit of the manufacturing side.
Those are great examples, thanks!
I am a designer, mostly focusing on Ux in software, but I love to hear the design theory of all things. Your passion for puzzles hooked me.
I would love any other examples you come up with, especially if they are theory, design or artistically focused.
I should also add psychologically, especially as it has to do with affordances and human-puzzle interfacing
You could've just stuck a paper clip into it
you would be able to open it without putting the coin back in all you need to do is find a longer rod or something
Right! But if you can do it without needing external tools, it's just a little bit more elegant!
Hey Fleb, do you prefer mechanical puzzles like these or puzzle hunt puzzles?
Hey FLEB. You mention many times that some puzzles are produced in limited quantities. Where should a new collector look to find new puzzles that get released by the makers you mention?
Where can i get one of those puzzles? and how much does it cost?
is it just my computer, or is there a line that you can occasionaly see going across the screen
There are several hizzards in the way
where do you get all these puzzles? I want them too!
but what about the hole on the bottom? thats still unanswered unless i missed something
Oh, shoot! I forgot to mention that's used for storing the key after the puzzle is done!
Does it caust 20cents
