What do you think of these Puzzler puzzles? Would you ever want to attempt one?
Yes I would love to try one I’ll look on eBay ;)
Maybe one,... and then give up pretty quickly
No chance. I’m doing a Wentworth puzzle of a tree and that’s hard enough
Nah, I'd like to keep the little bit of sanity I have left
No. This looks like torture.
I love how Karen sweetly call the pieces "little guys" or "these fellows" when they're clearly a bunch of brats.
lol
haha yeah definitely some brats
Wait til she meets Johnny Truant
@@tattooeduglyguy3376 house of leaves moment
like a true parent.
This woman is singlehandedly saving the name Karen.
It must be really annoying to be named Karen those days 😅
Ikr and she's amazingly kind and great for a Karen
@@veronikapop8161 I mean anyone who isn’t a “karen” knows it has nothing to do with what your name is.
Shes the only legal karen
Right
The first 2 minutes of this video I was like "oh, no, PLEASE don't mix together the 2 puzzles." I was genuinely nervous for you. Glad to see you didn't do it!
Omg me toooo
lolll you never know with karen 😭😂
omg could you imagine lol
this is what I thought she was going to do also.
These puzzles were hard enough as it is!
When she brought out the puzzler II I was like, how horribly evil would it be to mix the two puzzles up together to make the ultimate puzzler?
Aaaaaaaah!
Mermaid Man: Eeeeeeevvvviiiiiiiiilllllllll!!!!!!!
I guess that the original owner of the puzzler II sealed the bag themselves before selling it. I dont think that the Box would look the way it does if the puzzle in it wasnt ever opened before. That would explain the missing piece and the not-as-crisp edges as well!
For sure
Oh, now this just turned into a tragedy.
"I really need to eat, and sleep, and do basic human things"
This is SUCH a mood
I did a puzzle with my elderly mother last year. We did it on the dining room table. When we finished, we were missing a piece. It was mind-boggling. I was actually quite disappointed. About a week later, we actually found the missing piece in another part of the house, by the rocking chair my mother sits on throughout the day. We figured it must have clung to her sweater when she was working on the puzzle and it became dislodged after she had settled down in her chair. I was so excited when we found it!
Our family will often do holiday themed puzzles when we get together for Thanksgiving or Christmas and a missing piece is always a risk. They're usually found in someones slipper or turned up pant cuff. One year we finally found the missing piece standing up leaning against the table leg, the cardboard back matching the wood. How it fell like that is mind-boggling.
I ended up with a piece missing from a big, complicated puzzle of a mountain when I lived with my old roommate. Several times I'd found the roomie's cat scoping the puzzle out, so when I got to the end and had a piece missing, I KNEW the cat had stolen it. Roomie said she never saw it. Then, mysteriously, when roomie moved out, the piece magically appeared in the living room (like a year after I finished the puzzle). XD I'm guessing she was packing her stuff up, and whoops, there was the piece under her bed or something.
I run a cutting press for a living. The difference in the cut of the pieces has to due with the condition of the knives in the die. The crisp pieces are from a newer die the knives are still sharp. You will also see more puzzle dust from older dies because the knives are dull. (If it wasn't removed by the manufacturer).
That's a great point! It might just be because of where these specific puzzles were in the cutting queue.
Good to know ☺️
I saw someone on Facebook do this puzzle (the second one). She sorted by the colour on the nub. It's interesting to see how different people tackle the same problem.
Interesting strategy! Thanks for sharing!
I own the first puzzle, and that was my strategy as well!
I am 36 and have done one puzzle in my life. A 550 pcs puzzle that I completed in 4 hours yesterday evening. I found Karen this evening and she has since become my favorite UA-camr. To anyone who wants to complain about her complaining, please do so quietly and to yourself. She is slaying these puzzles and her edits are super on point. She has therefore earned the right to say whatever she wants about anything and everything. Karen, you rule.
I don't want to worry you, but I think your sister might be a supervillain.
Especially giving her the SECOND one. Like, surely she knows Karen will do the other one first and then be obligated to do the one she was given as a gift
Her sister either really loves her or really hates her...
she also hid one piece of the puzzle in a random place in her apartment, and resealed the bag 😂😂

So far I have only watched 58 seconds of it, and I'm not a big puzzle enthusiast - but your nerdiness and enthusiasm is contagious. You just got yourself a new subscriber!
That's what I did ! 😬
Me: "Who watches a 45 minute puzzle video?"
Also me: "I do. I watch a 45 minute puzzle video."
It's MIND-BOGGLING!!
"Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water" was the tagline for Jaws 2. Pretty much any sequel that used a 2 in the 70s and 80s used some variation on this.
She gives me “Amy” vibes, from Big Bang Theory, AND THAT IS IN NO WAY AN INSULT. She’s got the best personality.
Yessss. I couldnt place it till you said that!
I was thinking the same thing lol 😆 Amy was my favorite from that show
YES! Just discovered her & thought the same thing!! She is the answer to Sheldon’s “Fun With Flags”. 😂
@@I.m_Your_Fave Yesssss! That was my very first thought when I happened across one of her videos. I mentioned it but I deleted the comment because I didn't want her to think was just being mean.
"Amy vibes" (autism)
Yes, I did this pizzle in the 80s I did the original Puzzler. I remember it taking a while, but it was fun! So ming boggling! Thanks for another great video.
i always get soooo satisfied whenever you run your hand over the whole puzzle once you've finished it
The circular puzzle looks like an extra large pizza with everything on it, plus a few bluish things that shouldn't be on it, but for some mind-boggling reason, are still on it anyway. :) Nice work, Karen!
Blue cheese topping!
I swear those little pieces that have a small edge looking side are a NIGHTMARE in most puzzles
First comment
I was about to sleep but this is more important ❤️
I hope you sleep well in 47 minutes 😂
@@KarenPuzzles oh sht, I didn't notice that
Welp, guess who isn't sleeping tonight-
Literally same 😂😂🙈
Same its midnight😅
OMG SAME
I love doing puzzles but these ones look so frustrating to me. Thank you for doing them so I can live vicariously through you and enjoy the finished feeling and not have to suffer through weeks of them sitting on my puzzle table taunting me.
You should try to make the missing piece by gluing together two layers of egg carton lid cardboard, cutting the exact right shape of the piece and glue a layer of golden gift wrapping paper as the top layer!
Your sister is like a great gift giver! She seems to know you very well and chose the perfect presents for you. I would not attempt to do any of those two puzzles right now. Would be to mind-boggling for me...
I’m currently working on a black and white puzzle that is like 90% me staring at the pieces and 9% standing up and stretching. Not much puzzling is happening. It’s very slow going.
The mind boggling puzzler has been added to my wishlist
She has so much patience!! It's weird, I don't like doing puzzles at all but I love watching these videos!
I have no idea why this was in my recommended but I kind of dig it. Although I would literally die trying to do this puzzle...
Same 😂 I hate doing puzzles personally but she is so relaxing. It came up randomly in my recommended and I can’t complain. Especially since I watched all 47 minutes
I've had such an urge to solve a jigsaw puzzle since watching your channel the last few months! I ordered my first 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle that I plan on solving on my own! And it comes on Tuesday!
It would be super cool to see a comparison in quality from the vintage springbok vs newer springbok puzzles and see if it has changed
It is so satisfying to see someone complete the jigsaw puzzle and place the last piece in. Kind of visual ASMR, especially if it is sucha colourful puzzle.
The wholesome content I didn’t know I needed.
The fact that 3 hours in you had done virtually nothing when normally in 3 hours you can finish a 1000 piece puzzle tells me all I need to know....!!! I will not be getting one 🤣🤣🤣👍 LOL
Same!!
Right?!?!
I, too, cannot stop puzzling sometimes! It’s mind-boggling how quickly time seems to pass. Sometimes I feel like an addict...just one more piece...just one more....🙂
This would be a cool thing to poor resin over and make a little center piece on an end table or coffee table
I just discovered you, and I never knew how interesting and satisfying watching puzzle solving would be, you’ve made me regain my interest in puzzles
I enjoy these longs episodes! The best
ok now mix them together
lol definitely not 😂
LOL are you trying to kill her!?
Good one!! 😂
That is just evil 😂😂
Evil! 😆
Im now 25 years old and i now just rediscovering my love for puzzles. Thank you for showing up on my recommendation
Watching 47 min video and then missing the last piece 😩 That is mind boggling 😇
I didn't even realise i had just watched this for 47mins until I read this 😲
I started watching this video before work and I had to finish the video. I just needed to know what happens.
LOL just the intro alone plus what your shirt says already has me rolling 😂😂😂
For a moment, I thought you were going to combine the two puzzles. I was thinking, "NOOOOO!".
Yo dog, I heard you like jigsaw puzzles, so I made a jigsaw puzzle of a jigsaw puzzle!
I feel like if the cut of the pieces in the picture matched the actual cut, the puzzle would be much harder.
yeah exactly
Right? I thought the same thing
If the cut was perfect (no small lines of the wrong colour on it) it would pretty much been like a solid colour puzzle.
I was browsing through videos and saw this one. I did the Puzzler back in 1976 (I remember because I had just started a new job). I framed it and it hung in my work offices for years, it was a conversation piece since it was mind-boggling. I bought the Puzzler II somewhere around the same time. It is still in the shrink wrap and you can hear the puzzle pieces loose in the box, so I think the one Karen has was used and resealed. The price says $8.00. The first one was so hard, I think that is why Puzzler II is still in the shrink wrap. Karen inspires me to tackle it.
I thoroughly enjoy watching you do puzzles. You are so passionate about them and it makes this videos fun to watch and makes me want to watch more and more.
That missing piece is um, mind-boggling.
I love your videos and because of watching your videos now I have a new hobby! Thank you so much!
I glued a puzzle I made with my mom & framed it. It went with my decor at the time. Loved it for many years.
Hello Karen! I just found your channel, and I have to say, it is a true “rabbit hole”! My husband and I have been so into puzzles in 2020! I never knew there was a whole puzzle “language.” It is truly mind-boggling how good you are at these puzzles! We only do ones that we like the picture well enough to look at it for several days in a row lol. Since you seem to do vintage puzzles quite often, have you ever done a Shmuzzle Puzzle? I had one of these back in 198x, but I don’t know what happened to it. All the pieces are shaped like lizards and they tesselate.
My immediate reaction was ‘oh nooo...’
hahaha same tho
I recently did a 1,000 piece puzzle by Magic Puzzle Company, the Mystic Maze one. The art on it was beautiful and made it a little bit easier to put together. It had many different shapes and plenty of false edges. Luckily I had my friend over to help with it😂 it had a super cute mystery story line which inspired us to puzzle faster to finish it.
Looking at the thumbnail 👀
Truly mind-boggling... I love the cut of the Springbok puzzles but learnt my lesson when I fell for a black and white puzzle of theirs. My brain still hurts thinking about it so I wouldn't go near the two in this video!
"Please make it stop!" -- my eyes
It’s so funny you’re also in the middle of a Buffy marathon. & I literally just watched that episode band candy like two nights ago. I’m addicted to the show it’s so good!
This type of mind-boggling puzzle would be fun as a duo attempt or in a group. I can't see myself doing it solo but if someone was with me, I feel bouncing off observations and frustrations with each other would get us through until the satisfying moment when the last piece goes in
Truly mind-boggling - and yet a tiny part of my brain says it would like to give it a try. But that might just be because I've stayed up way past my usual bedtime to watch this and my brain likes to play tricks on me when I'm tired!
OMG you watch Buffy?!?! That is my favorite tv show ever!!! I've watched it more than 50 times!!!! I love your videos! So entertaining, calming and interesting!!! Thank you for these!😁
I love the longer videos!! :)
Puzzler II - This is one of my all-time favorite puzzles. My box full of puzzles was lost during a move and I have been searching for another copy of this puzzle for years. Even people who were not 'puzzlers' can't help being drawn into working on this one.
Twas mind boggling to watch you put together these puzzler puzzles
Wow great patience!!! I love the colors of this puzzle so bright and vibrant!!! 🧩
Huh.. so you finally understand what normal ppl feel like while doing puzzles😂
My sister and I started puzzling at 10 & 12 years of age back in the early 70's. My sister still works on puzzles every day. She did the original Puzzler back in the 80's. Her largest was a 6000 pieces of an antique map. Mind boggling. Your videos are very entertaining. Enjoy your enthusiasm.
Random fact: "gift" means poison in German
In Swedish too. It also means married 🤔
@@elinhulldin5926 same for norway
@@elinhulldin5926 that can't be a coincidence
"Bj" means "kiss" in portuguese so...
At first I thought it was mind-boggling how long the video waas, and then it was over and I wanted more. I never thought puzzling could be so much fun to watch!! Thanks, karen
Oh boy-I thought you were going to mix the two puzzles for a second there! 😱
The bright colours on the first circular one is so much more appealing.
I really love these strange forms in jigsaw puzzles. It's mind-boggling that these are so old but still so nice. I really like the circular one best mostly due to the colors and the fit. Too bad is not in stores.
Mind boggling describes this Puzzler very well. I am obsessed with vintage Springbok puzzles and I am determined to find this one. I own the Shades of Childhood one already that you showed in another video. It's nothing but colorful crayons. I have enjoyed that challenge so much and look forward to this challenge even more!
That final missing piece would have me pulling my hair out
Since I started watching you I have begun sharing the different puzzles that you do to my daughter. She is really good at doing puzzles I’m not as good as you but really good. She just doesn’t have the time to do big ones but 1000 piece takes her about two hours. If I do 1000 piece it’s gonna take me a week or more. I love watching you and seeing what you’re doing thank you so much for sharing with us
Wow what a ride! I don’t think i would do either of these puzzles it would hurt my brain to much. The most mind-boggling puzzle I have ever attempted to do was a Buffalo Games puzzle called “Lost in a Jigsaw: The Diagonal Maze Puzzle” where every piece fit together i never finished it and neither did anyone in my family would love to see you attempt that one Karen!
Wow, I just looked that up. That looks crazy!
idk why this was on my recommended but now im gonna binge watch all ur content while yarn crafting, this is great
Honestly just trying to differentiate these pieces is mind-boggling on its own!
That missing piece was mind boggling, enjoying your puzzle videos. Keep them coming.
The most mind-boggling thing to me is that no one has mentioned Karen's name is on her sister's gift! The author of the poem on the back of the Puzzler II is another Karen!
I saw that too!
Some could say that’s mind-boggling!
It’s mine boggling to me how good you are at putting puzzles together. Especially these two Well done.
Mathematicians worked very hard to prove that Four Colors Suffice, and Springbok goes and uses six.
i loved the nerdiness of talking about pieces that you did. would really enjoy more stuff like that. and the whole video was mind-boggling!
Those puzzles look so fun and mind-boggling :D !! And with thick pieces like that it looks super satisfying to put one in the right spot 😌
Glad to see you are doing a Springbok puzzle. I am not sure if I have this one or not -- I know I haven't put it together. You're right, most people would not like this sort of puzzle, but since I operate a lot from just the piece boundaries and color matchings, I enjoy these challenging puzzles. One time when I was about 6 or 7, I did a puzzle with all of the pieces face down. It wasn't that much harder than doing it with pieces facing up.
Buffy marathon and puzzling is my fave too! I’m currently in season 6
I have a while to go before I get there, but I'm so excited to eventually get to the musical episode again!
I have the Puzzler II. I did it in high school. It was my all time favorite! I still have it! I glued it together, but over the years I lost some edges. I think back then it was called “Son of puzzle”. It was the most satisfying puzzle to do. I always bought Springbok. They were the best at the time.
I borrowed this one from a friend in March 2020 and still haven't started it so thanks for the inspiration lol!!
Your persistence is absolutely mind-boggling!!!!!!!!
While i would never attempt a puzzle of this difficulty and visual chaos, i love watching you, my puzzle master, power through it!!!!!! You are my idol!
Wow, that looks... incredibly confusing-
It was!
mind-boggling even :P
My 87 year-old mother loves to do puzzles. She has done some that were pretty mind-boggling too. I enjoy puzzles, but the smaller ones. I also enjoyed this video. ☺️
You inspired me to start puzzling last year! The first one I did was an absolute nightmare and I got so sad that I have yet another hobby that I've quit 😂 But it got so much easier after I finished the first one! Now I'm waiting for my first Wentworth puzzle to arrive!
She inspired me to get the 3D Color Sphere 540 piece puzzle and I love seeing it in her background each time because I have mine too!! 😁
Ooh you will love the wentworth
Bless your puzzle brain! There is no way I would do either of those. The concept is mind boggling to me.
these puzzler puzzles look as mind-boggling as the krypt! after finishing the gold krypt last year, i feel slightly less terrified to take on one of these puzzlers!
I have an old sprinkbok circular puzzle from my mom, it’s probably my hardest puzzle but also my favorite
A characteristic of round puzzles is that most of the pieces are sort of pie shaped and they tend to get smaller as you move toward center. So in a way, round puzzles are easier than rectangular because you can guess orientation and approximate location. I suspect the second puzzle was sealed by the seller when he received it. Volume sellers often have sealing equipment for puzzles and models. The duller colors also would seem to indicate it was exposed to air for a long time. One giveaway is whether the pieces had dust. If the dust was missing it was resealed.
I think working on puzzles all day sounds like fun.
Imagine if a puzzle deliberately left out the final puzzle piece to infuriate people.
And the whole puzzle was plain white
I remember this puzzle from when I was a kid. I wanted to buy it. My mom wouldn’t let me. Probably saved me from some sort of mental breakdown. And yeah, those funky piece shapes!
Karen: *uploads*
Me: *I a m s p e e d*
Mind-boggling!!! I love your enthusiasm about puzzling. The hardest puzzle I ever did as a kid, from the 80's, it was round, and it was all popped popcorn. So repetitive and frustrating. It was an adult puzzle for sure. Keep up the good work Karen. !!!
Your sister sounds generous ☺️
I was thinking "wow, they must go crazy sending each other stuff for birthdays and special occasions!!" 😄
We were a little extra generous this year since we couldn't all be together in person 😭
@@KarenPuzzles oh that's so sad😔
I am so sorry but i love it when you get frustrated! You're mad at the puzzle and at life! HILARIOUS!!
When there's so many colours it almost turns into white noise
I had a jigsaw once that was just a plate of baked beans. 35 years later, I still get flashbacks.
