One of the first rule of puzzles. Look at them from all angles. The 100 confuses the brain, if you look at it as 001 or very easy to make the two moves
What throws most people off is that most people's brains visualise the letter A with a pointed top, not a flat one and hence why they struggle. You have to cringe at all the clowns in the comments claiming they got it straight away. Statistically speaking, it is not possible for this many people to solve it straight away, we all know people lie in YT comments but it is still cringe to see it.
It's as simple as this...... 1: Move from the perspective where it seems to be 100 to exactly opposite of it so that it appears 001 2:From the 001 perspective, pick the vertical pencil on the right side of the first 0 and place it horizontally on top of the last number which is the single(1) pencil forming the word COT. 3: From the COT, push the horizontal pencil at the bottom of the Zero in the word COT upwards a bit such that the 0 will now become A forming the word CAT. It's as simple as that.

@@bbkingme8831awe just because it took you three times to watch this and get a 1st grade game right doesn’t mean you can get angry at others who got it faster than you 🤡🤭😂
My best friend always does that to me we are both female and shes been doing it since primary so in P7 we had sports day and she put her hand on my head and I scratched the hell out of it because she wouldn't move and now she has these tiny scars on her arm and we are roomates lol
Assuming you are looking at the pencils from left to right as follows: square (1st), square (2nd), and "1". Then, from 1st square (made of 4 pencils: top, bottom, left, and right), move the right pencil above the "1" to make letter "T". Then, from 2nd square, move the bottom pencil to the middle of the 2nd square creating letter A.
I didn’t look at comments and I paused to try n figure it out: I think look at it upside down as 001. remove 1 pencil from first 0 to make a C. Then remove bottom pencil of second 0. Put first removed pencil on 2nd 0 to make an A and your last remaining pencil across the 1 to make a T. 001 = CAT
The trick really is the direction that you look at the pencils. Once you look at the pencils as reading “001” instead of “100”, it is a little easier to solve. Great video ❤❤
Visualise from the other end. The arrangement is opposite. Move the right Right most pencil if the left zero to the top of 1 and make a T. Move the lower horizontal pencil if the 2nd Zero to the muffle of it to make an A. You have done it. 👏👏👏
yeah I had a book of matchstick puzzles, thousands of them when I was a kid. I would stay busy for hours doing this shit. This was damn easy. Took like 2 seconds

@@FC0BCA7E7A That's not sad it just shows your human. Nostalgic can bring back memories of lost loved ones or events in your life that were special to you only and that others might not understand
I can answer that, so simple❤❤❤. Here the steps. 1. Get one piece in the right portion of first zero and then put on the tip of number 1 vertically to make it letter T. 2. Get the one piece at the bottom of second zero and move to the cenetr of it to make it letter A. Thats 2 moved and thats all, so simple. Thank you. I am from Philippines.
I automatically knew you had to move that button stick in the middle up a bit, and I also figured that you would have to view it upside down. Too bad the puzzle wouldn’t hold still.
@@matheusmarchesotti2269Because it is? Probably over 50% of people watching didn't get the answer, but then got it immediately after seeing his upside down "COT"
Took awhile for me.. Guess I'm not dat smart 🤣 The first box is "C", put the eliminated pencil to the end to get a "T", and move the lower pencil at middle box to middle then you get an "A"
I remember going to your channel a few weeks ago to check on how you were doing, and saw this short. I saw it had only like 300 likes, and now it has over 1 million! Keep up the great work dude, I love you.
1st & 2nd pencil make the letter "T" his moving pencil up to create the letter "A" was the third move.. This was done in 3 moves, not 2, & actually its vaguely impossible to spell the word "cat" in (2) moves!! 3 moves; yes. 2 moves, No 👎 !!! Cannot be 2 moves if they already had the letter T there for him. The letter T was 2 moves on its own. He made the third move by moving the pencil up to create the letter "A", get it????
Reverse your angle to get “Box Box and I”Remove 1 vertical line (pen) from the left box and put it horizontally on top of “I” which will make it T. The first box now becomes a C after removing one pen. Then in the middle box move the bottom pen to the middle but still in horizontal position, which will make the middle box letter “A”. Now you have CAT.
Yeah, but the spacing is off. Think "outside the box" or actually, up and down the box. The "1" becomes the T, but as the bottom letter of CAT spelled vertically. This way, the correct letter spacing, or kerning, is preserved. One pencil from the conventional second 0 forms the bottom T letter making the top now a C. Move 1 pencil from the middle 0 to make it an A.
Lol it’s easy. Move the first pencil from the middle of the first square to the last pencil to make a T and then move the second squares bottom pencil up to make an A.
