PUZZLE TOWN — Trying to solve a Rubik's Cube is a rite of passage for many people.
It may take hours, days or weeks — and multiple Google searches for help — but seeing that little cube with all its colors aligned can feel like you’ve landed on the moon.
Or at least, I imagine it would be if I ever solved one. That’s right, folks, some of us have been thoroughly perplexed by these simple contraptions for years. As we see our peers graduate to more extreme versions of the puzzle (they make triangular, star-shaped and uncolored versions), we become more fascinated than ever by this arcane skill.
Which leads me to ask: Who did this guy sell his soul to?

As we’ve established, solving one Rubik's Cube is magic enough, but this man takes it to a whole new level by introducing three — AND juggling — to the mix!
How does he have time to adjust the rows? How long did it take him to perfect this? Is he teaching classes? Can I sign up? I need all the help I can get.
Look at his happy face as he finishes the feat! He knows how incredible this dark magic is, and it’s bound to make you smile.
The Guiness Book of World Records has also certified the fastest completion of juggling and solving three Rubik’s Cubes in its entirety here.
But for those of us still puzzled by the cube, such powers are beyond our comprehension and worthy of starstruck praise. For those more gifted than I in such arts, please leave your theories on how to complete this spectacle (or solve a cube in general) in the comments below.
