I was looking at the video length wondering why you haven't started trying to solve it over halfway through. The surprise on my face when all the pieces fall apart out of nowhere
When you just think he is just playing or fidgeting with the puzzle and dont realize until the second time around that he was solving it... i love this
A fun trick to this puzzle very few know about. If you just pull hard enough with all your might, the whole thing comes apart and is solved. I was able to beat it in about 2 seconds with this method.
Reminds me of the Tower of Hanoi puzzle. Repeatedly performing and undoing the same actions until you are able to move the pieces further down the line. It's a very impressive design. Unfortunately, due to the nature of how to solve it, that red piece will eventually wear away due to friction long before the rest of it.
I thought you were just showing us how the pieces moved. I'm looking at the time tick down, wondering how you're gonna solve it if it takes so many moves with the time you have left. Kinda getting disappointed that you might say, "learn how to solve it in the next video." Then it just magically pops apart in the last second... 😂
Am I the only one who was completely aware that he was solving it while he spoke? , and I was not surprised when he solved it at the end of the video, but I just liked that he finished the solution while ending his speech smoothly.
Maybe I'm just a nerd but I'm almost thinking this thing works like how you count in binary or trinary: move a piece so many times to set up the next one, then it can move, then go back to the first, and the sort of "feedback" keeps getting carried down the line like how in binary you only get a 1 in a new column once every column before it has a 1, and you add another 1 - making the rest flip to 0s. I realize this probably sounds like the ravings of a madman but like I figured it was better to say it that way than call it a chain of flip-flops in a logic gate ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is exactly what I was thinking! Each piece is a binary number place and has either a 1 or a 0 value. As each piece moves, the binary value rolls over to the next one in line
I've never seen a puzzle like this before, I love the fact that it has so many steps and is expandable. You can't even cheat by watching someone solve it unless you have a perfect memory. I'd definitely buy this. How long did it take for your first solve?
Wow, a binary counter puzzle! Never thought I would see something like this Basically like Tower of Hanoi where it exponentially increases each time a new layer is added
I wouldn't even try to solve it, i just like the idea of fidgeting with it
"Nooo, why does it fall apart? I just want to fidget!"
Same
Its falls apart and you dont know how to fix it😅
When you accidentally solve it and it falls apart.
Don't worry, that's how you solve it.
Bro I thought you were just messing with it but you were solving it 💀
😎
same💀
Bro same

Have you ever showcased a Rubik’s cube?
@@Enh_Od_opi I'm not a fan of Rubik's cube
@@Puzzleguyas a beginner cuber, i can understand that.
@Puzzleguy how do you set this up?
@@EleneDB There is a link to related video at the bottom of the screen. Watch it to find out.
The reveal that he was actually solving the puzzle the whole time is probably one of the greatest plot twists in history, you're a genius man
My god I didn’t even realize he was solving it
Me neither
me neither
(why 2.5k likes but only 1 reply?!?!?)
@@americatrimblecause liking a comment because you agree or feel the same with it is easier than replying "agree/same"
I didn't know he was solving it either.
It's not that hard. Watch it again
It’s interesting how the puzzle is essentially a base-n counting system in physical form, where each piece is a digit in an arbitrary integer.
Respectfully, I have literally no idea what I just read but yea 👍
@@pixelzebra8440fr bruh
It seems like the pattern is similar to this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_code
Now that you mentioned it it makes sense tho, the moves seemed oddly cyclical
Was about to say that it looks like it's just counting.
It takes around 100+ takes to get this short correctly.
Imagine being on the second to last step and messing it up, having to do the whole thing again for that perfect run
@@stupidperson7516just go back in time
@@noajdjamsezy isn't it?
Or he knows how to add a voice over a video”
@@paintpaintpaintco.6039 Obv he will do that only, why would he repeat so many times.
this is something i would accidentally solve
That’s honestly true though
Same I’m not doing this consciously no way

*Bad lipsyncers has left the chat.*
And then have no idea how to put it back together so it just goes into a box as a loose collection of pieces.

Ah yes, cutting the Gordian knot!
I thought he was just wiggling it this whole time LOL

I literally dropped my Michael 😮
Did Michael get dropped?😢
I thought he was playing with it but the entire video was him solving it 😂
It looks like a piece of alien technology
Dude remembered 100 steps for this video
30 seconds, you're right I checked the time😎
-stomps on it- There, reduced to one step.
Literally lmfao

@@nicrevengod save us all
Due to the nature of the design, it is easily, quickly, and cheaply reprinted.
I realized he was solving it when he said his speed record was 30 seconds.
I like it how this puzzle gadget looks and moves.

I was so flabbergasted when he just pulled the piece out
And so he wasn't just pushing it back and forward he was indeed solving it
"Little did they know.....he! Was solving the puzzle under their nose.."
It’s scary enough to solve it but imagine putting it back to its original state
Am I the only one who was completely aware that he was solving it while he spoke? , and I was not surprised when he solved it at the end of the video, but I just liked that he finished the solution while ending his speech smoothly.
yeah it's quite obvious. Most people in this comments section are idiots apparently
I always love the beginning of these videos: “this puzzle has six poarts”
Putting it back together seems like it’d be the greater challenge.
for sure
Did bro just day 8000 steps if ypu add the extra 6 parts 💀
That’s a great puzzle.
Kudos.
The moment when you realize he isn’t just fiddling with it and actually making a cold, calculated move to solve it
This literally looks like something you would find out a movie prop that would be related to some sort of sci-fi key 😂

I want this as my door lock 🔏
Certainly he's just fidgeting with it- oh.
Reminds me of the gordian knot puzzle, it was a six piece 3D puzzle and i found an unintended solution that involved rotating one of the pieces.
I've never seen a puzzle like this before, I love the fact that it has so many steps and is expandable. You can't even cheat by watching someone solve it unless you have a perfect memory. I'd definitely buy this.
How long did it take for your first solve?
Like, i can only hear the guttoral chewing of the officer, i just cant.
Wow, a binary counter puzzle! Never thought I would see something like this
Basically like Tower of Hanoi where it exponentially increases each time a new layer is added
It literally looks like he's just moving it back and forth until he finally pulls it apart
puzzles like this aren't actually too tricky but rather just repetitive and the numbers are what scares the most
the hard part is always putting it back together
Attaching the ends of a chain to either side of this makes what I call the "OCD Lockpicker's worst nightmare"
looking you solving:100/100
me hearing what your saying:-100/1m
I thought he was just moving the red piece around over and over, until I realized to check the rest of the puzzle lmao
"It's in my etsy store" I'm about get way too many puzzles 🤣
This is how am exam works
Ok it’s some kind of counter so the more pieces you add it grows exponentially
Was I seriously the only person here to recognize that he was solving the puzzle 10 seconds in?
i recognized 1 second in it was pretty obvious
Like this one. This is the kind of "even you know how you can't solve it fast".
How hollywood sees lockpicking:
I thought he was just fiddling with it till he took it apart xD
Bro started speaking and I just heard gibberish for a good moment
How do you.. put it back?
a mallet’s always a good answer
Something I would think was a fidget toy until it falls apart
Your videos inspired me. im doin Matchstick puzzle. Thank you
This seems like a fun little puzzle
my clothe hangers when i need them:
ripping it sounds fun
That looks awesome fr
Super cool! I remember in 8th grade everybody was trying to solve rubiks cubes, this seems a lot harder😂
This feels like something I’d accidentally solve after fidgeting with it for 5 years
I just saw you solve it and I still have no idea what’s going on
Looks like so much fun.
This is awesome !
How do you put em back together now boi?
_slides pieces to the sides discreetly_
My caveman brain be like “Hulk smash” and done its apart
Looks like a binary counter
Me: shaking it
The puzzle:
Autobots, disintegration
A machined version made with those super high precision cnc mills would be neat
My mind : break it 💀💀
I was so ready to see this comment section unsatisfied by this video and then I realized you solved it by the end and was like “wait huh”
imagine using this as a fidget toy and then suddenly it just falls apart
My mindless caveman strength can solve this puzzle in four seconds.
Is this a maze in another form!?
I want this as my phone cover
I thought he will start solving after speaking 💀
Bro casually did one hundred steps and solved it 😂
Everyone else: Parts
This guy: B A R T S
I lost it when you said "this is a zigabxtweijjgvbzz puzzle"
I thought he was just messing with it until the end 😭
this looks like the type of puzzle you can complete just by making random moves with it 💀
I feel like this is how engineers are making cars now. 110 steps for what should be a six step process.
Fractal stuff, it’s ratios and very tight directional tolerance
This is incredible bc it only uses two dimensions ↔️↕️
my brain was not braining for a second
This is one of the things that looks more complicated than it is
I oddly saying "WTF-" when he solves it
Bro i thought he was just jiggling it but he was solving it yooooo
"The problem isnt that hard."
The problem:
It’s just a fancy binary counter which explains the many repetitive steps.
this kinda reminds me of the tower of hanoi, where you need recursive steps to increment progress on each piece to unlock the next
Or, with one step, sledgehammer
