I love that Chris had to trial and error the non-jack version even when there are clear markings that, as he said, were pointing outside but still got through all possible iterations with the pieces even when the markings point inside
Thank you for bringing back the "whistle and smoke" when the puzzle lands. Reminds me when you would do a puzzle in the morning in your kitchen with a cup of coffee.. Those are the best days of this channel
sometimes ur puzzle video soothe my tired souls. wrecked from daily routine of work and stuff. ur magic videos or puzzle videos. anything by you is so good that it feels like a healing time for me anytime i watch ur videos. keep it going chris. love it❤
Love this type of puzzle! You made it look easy but even after watching you solve it. It will still be a challenge! Thanks! I will definitely be ordering this one!😎
I bought their last puzzle (Wavelinks) and have been very happy with it. Very satisfying when you get it to slide together. Anyway, since I liked the last one so much, I tossed them my wallet as soon as the KS went live for this one. Can't wait to get my hands on it!
intro puzzle answer is A. Its all physics based. The ring spins slightly and causes the chain to basically loop around itself thus making kind of a knot around the ring.
Also was anybody else yelling at him through the screen saying bumps on the outside smooth on the inside? When he was trying to do the solve without the jack?
I Kickstarted this puzzle, it arrived today, I LOVE it so much. Quality is great, nice heavy feel to the metal pieces, acrylic case is great. I've been trying to make this puzzle myself for several years, now I don't need to. ❤👍👌
It can't be physics! My dad is a full-time magician and he told me it's the ring! He had this same exact illusion! Only, his ring is gold and it's bigger.
Definitely A. I have enjoyed this for years since my dad showed me over 30 years ago. Best part is that all parts can be picked up at your local hardware store.
It is all of the above. A,B, and C. It is A, Physics because it uses the gravity that makes the ring go down, B and C chain and ring trick because you need a certain motion to make the ring go through the chain and the chain will loop around the ring because of the physics involved during the motion.
@@futuramabender2078 There's ALWAYS going to be Physics involved, because the ring goes down due to gravity. So to me the question was reduced to "is it B, C or B+C".
9:52 Something I noticed broke my brain. With the jack in the box there is more space in the acrylic box than the original solve. How does one add to but get less volume. I'm sure the original cube was not sliding around in the box before just crazy. GREAT puzzle. So after review with a few missteps of his fingers that moved the shells there is more room in the box than the original cube and I deem this the Magical Box of Jacks!!
It is a physics trick. By flipping the ring over and dropping it at the same time, as it falls into a slip knot that motion makes. A very good visual trick, but not really a sleight of hand kind of thing. It just works automatically when you flip and drop the ring.
Since you didn't offer D) all of the above, going with physics. Big heavy ring, light chain set against it, bet difference of weight makes chain flip around the ring just before it hits the chain bottom, trapping the flipped part between the ring & the bottom.
That's a really neat puzzle! I hope they release them to the public soon, it'd be great as a desk fidget. The chain/ring thing is a neat physics trick. As the ring falls, it slides past the chain and causes it to snap around the ring, forming the knot. If you drop the ring so that it never makes contact with the chain, then the trick won't happen.
The ring trick is physics (A) - basically, the chain whips around the outside of the ring and hooks over due to friction etc, etc. You do have to tilt the ring slightly, otherwise it will simply fall off.
@@futuramabender2078 It's physics you let go of the right with just one finger and the ring does spin making the chain wrap around itself making a knot so to speak
I just realized that I was on .75 playback speed at the end of the video. I cannot put in words how enraged I was that he was taking so long when he KNEW the perforated side went outward. Really freaking cool puzzle. That must've taken a lot of thought to create.
When Mr. Puzzle did this, he said that he didn't notice that this fit as they described. In other words, there was still the same amount of space between the puzzle pieces and the jack in the middle of the puzzle. Did you notice that, as well?
The pieces are exactly flush with each others both with and without the jack. There is no play between them in either configuration. The difference comes from the volume of the cube. With the jack the cube is slightly larger than without.
My God. At the beginning, he was giving me a headache the way he kept turning the pieces when it was so obvious lol. The way I was yelling at my screen 😂
Ramsay you screwed me bro! I ordered this for my kid and he had it done in 3 minutes. He's being nice about it but I feel like an idiot for building it up based on the video. Not to mention that I've been waiting for it since October.
It's A) Physics. it will happen with any appropriately sized ring along any cord/rope/string shaped loop like that. You just need to hold the ring at a slight angle and it catches on the string.
Looks nice, but way to simple due to the textured sides. Would be WAY better if all the sides of the pieces looked the same so you don't know what side is in, out, up or down.
Physic it when you let one side go slightly before the other side it rubs against the chain. If you let them both go at the same time it doesn't happen that way.
(A) for sure. Although, maybe someone decided to make a trick chain and you decided to buy it! Hahaha... The puzzle looks cool! Fun that it can be solved in a few ways, with the jack and without the jack 👍
Honestly when I put it to slow speed,it is really not the ring nor the chain but it might be physics. Now I am not an expert with physics but I sure do know that it does work like that. Also it is not magnetic.
I love that Chris had to trial and error the non-jack version even when there are clear markings that, as he said, were pointing outside but still got through all possible iterations with the pieces even when the markings point inside
Honestly made my hands itch
* chose to
I have the feeling he does it on purpose to make the video goes longer or make the puzzle look harder
Beautiful puzzle! They really should add magnets to the acrylic case to keep it together, just like acrylic deck displays / cases.
Thank you for bringing back the "whistle and smoke" when the puzzle lands. Reminds me when you would do a puzzle in the morning in your kitchen with a cup of coffee.. Those are the best days of this channel
Physics do be like that tho
Ay ay physic DO be like that 😂
Amen brother, that they do.... that they do
Mmm
You don't think it do, but it be doing that.
I've seen this trick before, it really is all about the laws of physics.

Physics and some magic.
Really love Jack in the Box. Would have got one if it wasn’t so expensive to ship to Europe. ❣️🥰
It can't be physics! My dad is a full-time magician and he told me it's the ring! He had this same exact illusion! Only, his ring is gold and it's bigger.
Thank you so much for everything that you do, Chris. I really love your vids.
A physics. Awesome illusion!! And awesome puzzle!!!!
Just got mine in the mail, and i absolutely love it. So nice to look at.
I’m so excited for this puzzle! I backed the Kickstarter SO quick!
A cigar, a cup of coffee, and a Ramsay puzzle = relaxation
A. I’ve seen the Self-Tying Larkshead before.
Simple. Elegant. Satisfying.
Definitely A. I have enjoyed this for years since my dad showed me over 30 years ago. Best part is that all parts can be picked up at your local hardware store.
Love these small puzzles, especially ones that have 2 solutions.
I want a Spotify Playlist with this type of music.
It is all of the above. A,B, and C. It is A, Physics because it uses the gravity that makes the ring go down, B and C chain and ring trick because you need a certain motion to make the ring go through the chain and the chain will loop around the ring because of the physics involved during the motion.
No it's B! My dad is a full-time magician and he has this same illusion only it's bigger and the ring is gold

I need to know the science behind this, my brain cannot figure out how this is possible! Very cool!

A! Physics is a crazy thing! Not a huge fan of these styles of puzzles personally but I love the look of this one. Very appealing!
Now that the puzzle has arrived and I solved it, I can finally watch this video!!
"The ring goes through the chain" :p I think its the other way around

The Mr Rogers music is a nice touch
Thank you to Art of Craighill for allowing us to see it! Thank you for supporting the Greatest Puzzle Solver in the World.
Yeah that is a cool desk ornament to fiddle with

@@futuramabender2078 How am I supposed to ask your dad
@@claires1063 I meant that figuratively. Sorry bout that!

Its Physics, the ring wraps around the ring as its falling making the chain knot around the ring
Nope!
What a cool puzzle!
these videos got me in a chokehold fr
Opening with a classic magic trick! I love that. PS - I want this puzzle.
physics. step 1 to prove press pause. step 2 look for . step 3 press >. to skip 1 frame at a time. step 4 see how it works.
The ring trick is physics (A) - basically, the chain whips around the outside of the ring and hooks over due to friction etc, etc. You do have to tilt the ring slightly, otherwise it will simply fall off.
I think it's more like topology, a branch of mathematics. But yes, no trick.
@octocat1- There's no spin on the ring - it simply drops. It's easy to try, though. Give it a go.
It ain't physics! It's a trick ring! My dad is a full-time magician and he has this same exact illusion only it's bigger and the ring is gold!
@@futuramabender2078 It's physics you let go of the right with just one finger and the ring does spin making the chain wrap around itself making a knot so to speak
@@lookitsastro8046 Is is not physics
Who would have thought that a puzzle where all of the pieces are identical could be so tricky?
For years I’ve been saying “Everything is physics, if you look close enough.”
Need this one right here for the office
Physics. You're making a loop with the chain but disguising it lol. It's neat though!
No! It's B! My dads a full-time magician and he has this same illusion only it's bigger and the ring is gold. He told me!
I just realized that I was on .75 playback speed at the end of the video. I cannot put in words how enraged I was that he was taking so long when he KNEW the perforated side went outward. Really freaking cool puzzle. That must've taken a lot of thought to create.
That ring/chain illusion is pure physics. Good trick though.
Nope! B! My dads a full-time magician and he has this same illusion only it's bigger and the ring is gold.
Chris, Another great puzzle. I love it! Thank you for bring these to us. Be safe.
Regards, Myk
That is such a Great brain teaser puzzle would totally give it a shot at getting one and figuring it out
Super cool puzzle

0:14 nice fall of the ring to make the chain loop itself. its a simple loop knot but with flipping the ring it forces the chain to loop on to itself.
A: physics
I remember learning that ring trick way back. It's a cool little trick. I guess you would call that a physics trick.
This is a classic Chris Ramsay puzzle video! Beautiful!
This puzzle is awsome! I want to get it now! I love your vids
Looks like you flip the ring when it drops. Slick move.
Another great video, might ask for one of your deck of cards for Christmas.
Yes,definitely my thing! Thank you for sharing❤
A
great video as always
I prefer this then bolt n pin puzzle with sequencial solution
i know that trick, i did it in 3rd grade at my classes talent show its physics, its a neat trick
#1 that's physics #2 I would definitely add that to my puzzle collection
Nope! It's B! My dad is a full-time magician and he has this same illusion only it's bigger and the ring is gold
Idk if its the asmr sounds with the puzzle or the voice but these videos are calming
Your 'on-hold' music is on point!
without the jack the dented sides are facing out, and with the jack inside, the smoother sides are facing out...
It's physics and you're amazing by the way. You're my favorite puzzle solving TH-camr. The ONLY one really in my opinion. Love ya buddy.
Great puzzle
A. Physics- the ring spins over itself mid air catching the chain and stopping it.
I love how long it took bro to fill in the box when the outside looks completely dif than the inside💀
So cool!!! ❤❤❤
Absolutely just A - physics, brother!
Nope! B! Ask my dad, he'll tell ya cause he's a full-time magician and he has this same illusion only it's bigger and the ring is gold.
My God. At the beginning, he was giving me a headache the way he kept turning the pieces when it was so obvious lol. The way I was yelling at my screen 😂

@@futuramabender2078He may have, but it's utterly unnecessary.
@@BrentLorend They've copy-pasted this comment everywhere lol
Your videos are awesome to watch when drinking some hot coffee on break after work :D
A - physics. Love your videos.
This feels like one of those game ads where you're constantly screaming at them, because they're purposely doing terrible
Great video man, sweet puzzle.
Ring has opening like a carabiner
Looks nice, but way to simple due to the textured sides. Would be WAY better if all the sides of the pieces looked the same so you don't know what side is in, out, up or down.
I'm gonna pick D - Topology
Physic it when you let one side go slightly before the other side it rubs against the chain. If you let them both go at the same time it doesn't happen that way.
This is a great coffee table piece. Great design!
It is A Physics he is flipping the ring when it falls so it stays on the chain
Physics, the ring rotates basically forcing the chain to the "knot" by itself
(A) for sure. Although, maybe someone decided to make a trick chain and you decided to buy it! Hahaha...
The puzzle looks cool! Fun that it can be solved in a few ways, with the jack and without the jack 👍
Nope B my dad is a full-time magician and he has this same illusion only it's bigger and the ring is gold
It’s A, or close enough. He wrapped the chain around the ring somehow… probably as it fell tbh.
B
Dude that's awesome!
This one hurt!! Found myself talking to the laptop!!!
Very cool puzzle.
looks super satisfying to solve
Physics... same way to attach a lanyard
Nope! B! My dads a full-time magician and he has this same illusion only it's bigger and the ring is. He told me! I've seen him do it!
A physics, But you wana think its the chain or the ring its not. love the trick classic
It's just physics. Cool illusion though
Nope
Thanks Chris I might try to make a purchase that's quite nice
external sides has patterns so its stupidly easy
Honestly when I put it to slow speed,it is really not the ring nor the chain but it might be physics. Now I am not an expert with physics but I sure do know that it does work like that. Also it is not magnetic.
Basic physics bro i used to this to those old Bank pens on a chain.. think i was 3 or 4 ? Good trick still.. Handy for camping
Physics, so it’s probably the ring or all of the above lol. Nice little puzzle, very pleasing
The ring on chain trick is decades old...
Awesome - cheers for sharing, Chris 🙏
Super elegant!!
SUCH a satisfying puzzle, man! Awesome!
Thanks 🖖🐰🍷
