Cubehead you are my favorite cubing channel 🔥 Great vid 😎
Bro was going to open an original 1980 rubik's cube whit a chesse knife... This sentence feels so wrong
The reason the ad says 'more than 3 billion' was because it was thought that most people wouldn't even be able to comprehend how big 43 quintillion is or even know what a quintillion is.
it makes sense
i think it would be good if they put the actual number with all the digits bc everyone would understand how big that is
@@freez.mp4 it makes sense too! XD
i literally came to the comment section to say this exact thing but you beat me to it lol
Ha
At least now I know I can defeat CubeHead in a cubing battle as long as he uses a 44-year-old Rubik's cube.
lol true
haha
HAAA 😂 you are very funny!
It says 3 billion and not 43 quintillion because the average person sees "43 quintillion" and goes "what does that mean", but when they see "3 billion" they say "wow that's a large number"
why not 43 trillion. Everyone knows what a trilion is right?
@@Craft2guardianthat was back in the day before people could comprehend those numbers.
@@marcoarmandoarcega4648 But still trillion would be better and im pretty sure they would still go wow thats so big I can't understand
@@Craft2guardian Many people didn't know what's trillion either
@@Craft2guardian the question is why not 43 billion? or 99 billion? or 9 billion? the biggest number people those days could comprehend?
Was it just me or were you guys scared that he would throw the 80’s cube at the wall?!
Great video btw, I really love these kind of CubeHead videos
Haha this time it didn’t even cross my mind 😂
@@CubeHeadwe have been spared
@@CubeHeadNow it has… *DO IT*
@@ThatSocialKidDONT Y O U DARE
Honestly, I actually thought he would do that :)
I am 57. I do not recall a sticker in the center of the case. And as a collector, what you did broke my heart
@@thenebbish7709 there's a sticker with ARXON logo on it. I am holding the original cube produced in Hungary 44 years ago, that was sold back then in my country.
@@thenebbish7709 That tearing sound was my Gen X soul being rendered in two.
The packaging is missing the sticker on the top. It was a gold sticker that had "Ideal" printed on it.
No surprise that they nailed the terrible turning after decades of experience. I wonder what hints they send the people back who askeld for help. Hopefully they were better than their calculations.
Dang, they got DESTROYED
Hey milan! I wanted to thank you again for having the opportunity to meet you at Euros! I was the one with the custom cubehead-necklace you signed. It really means a lot to me! Hoping to see you again at some competition!
Ernő would have done the same. (I also) The Cube was made to solve it, not to look at it.
You honor the cube and not the Packaging and thats cool. yo man. ^^
Greetings from Hungary.
5:18 lets get him to 50k likes cuberss
The Deluxe version is fun - tiles instead of stickers. I still have mine from back in 1982!
Mad respect, bro opened a 40 year old cube just for a video 🔥🔥🔥
@@kyuubed *50 years
We need to get this man to 2 million subs he deserves it :D
Top of the original case from 1980 had a “IDEAL” logo sticker with gold background and black logo. Mine still has the sticker. It is my first cube I brought in the early 80s which I still breakout and solve from time to time.
Now that we know that cubehead took 1 minute to solve it, solving it in 55 seconds at the time seems a lot more impressive
0:26 how did you get into my attic
Lol
The poor seller when you said you would open it 😭
I have one of the 1980s cubes, it belonged to my Mum, who could solve it in 3 minutes (mostly intuitive, corners first method). She also had the OG 4x4 and Rubik's Ball
Exactly 12 years ago today max park went to his first ever compaction. This also just so happed to be the exact day that I was born! Happy birthday to me 🎉🎉🎉l
Happy birthday 🎉
@@Vladii-zn8kd thanks!
2:37 my left ear loved this part
Hi CubeHead, I have a rare Hungry magic cube produced between late 1978 and early 1980 in the original Hungarian paper box "Büvös Kocka" produced by Politoys (whis is the renamed original "Politechnika" name). The rarest thing is that this first version has not only the white and yellow sides, but also the red and orange neighboring sides.
Tbf I expected you to try to beat that 55 seconds record from og info card on that original 44 year old cube
Did i really just hear Milan say he DOESN'T want to damage the cube? What reality is this?
Thanks for putting it out there that white was next to yellow, which put blue next to green, on the original Rubik’s cube. I have one, but no one ever believes me. They just think mine is a cheap knockoff from back in the day.
@@SBCuber64 Yea any true cuber would know that white is next to yellow, they just aren’t invested enough to know
Well not exactly. I have one and the colour scheme is as of the 50 anniversary one. The label says it's produced in 1981.
In Cubehead’s video at 1:14 you can see that white is next to yellow on that old cube he bought.
Not only there are way more than 3 billion possibilities, the are quite more than "just one" solution, accounting for all the center pieces rotations.
I actually used to have the 1980's rubiks cube it was my dads they threw it away 3 years ago😢😅
I also have the first original sold cube, I got lucky that the parents of my mother bought it for her at the time!
The color scheme was different at the time than now.
The recess on the top used to have a sticker with the Ideal company logo on it
As for the plastic yellowing, I seem to recall the plastic on mine being a little off coloured anyway, but not too bad.
I still have my 1980 cube, but not in the box.
7:10 this hurt me too! BUT!! Honestly you’re the best person to do it because you’re opening ONE expensive cube so millions can experience it as well.
Not sure if anyone else knows this, but pencil lead was the first "lube", you took it apart and rubbed the pencil lead on every flat surface
Yeah. It is graphite.
I love how he said ikea knife when it was Damascus steel with a beautiful wood handle
5:16 GET THIS MAN 50K LIKES, WE DRAINING HIS BANK ACCOUNT WITH THIS ONE 🗣🔥🔥🔥
No.
*runs away*
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
This was your opportunity to show your blockbuild petrus skills which might have made the difference in breaking that 55 second world record
Ah, this takes me back to the early 1980's!!! My PB on the original cube back then was 52 seconds. :)
3:48 PABLOOOO I MISSED YOU ❤❤
12:23bro got 50 year old air in that buble
I have a 20-30 year old Rubik's cube that was a gift from my uncle . When I first tried to solve it , it turned TERRIBLE! But with time it started to turn better . So now I can solve it in about 1 minute (I average 15 seconds) . Also a year ago my friend gave me his Rubik's cube (for me to solve it) and it was literally a ROCK ! Every turn required an ENORMOUS effort and I always thought it was just going to break ! And after 20 minutes of finger workout I finally managed to solve it ! That was the worst cube my hands have ever touched!
Cool story but chill with the double spaces
It actually hurts to read💀
Fantastic job, as always my man doesn’t disappoint me
Maybe the number of combinations refers to the number of all combinations divided by the ones that are just rotations and color-replacements of each other?
My first one was the OG color scheme. Vaseline was the lube of choice before we figured out that it eats the old plastic. It eventually became un usable and I had to get a new one and the new color scheme was a shock.
Yoo im the guy who Interviewed you at Euros 😊
ngl i never new that the Rubik's cube had the white and yellow there, they stay true to the sh**y turning though, any way love your videos cube head you are my favorite youtuber keep up the amazing work
Shout out to anyone just listening with one earbud hearing nothing as a cube ominously solves it self only to be followed by "I wonder how they got that number" gotta love binaural audio errors
Congrats on 300 vids man! Keep up the good work
thts honestly cube-tastic, happy Cube-day rubiks cube!!
Dont u just love cubehead. I mean bro got the yoo and bamm u already got a favorite youtuber. 16s and 50 views already❤❤❤
(Cubehead pls comment🙏🙏🙏) I liked. Plus no suprize amazing editing and camera and video quality.
YOU ROCK CUBE HEAD!!!!!!
Keep making good content cubehead ur one of the best if not the best cubing youtuber.
2:36 my left ear is enjoying this
Dude: I was around during the original cube craze I was around 12-13. We actually did libe the cubes with Vaseline. Not sure if that was great for the plastic but it helped.
you are the best yo2uber i have subscribed u from my 5 devices
12:01,We need a Guinness world record of the worst tps in speedcubing🤣🤣❤️
I thought you would do a "Throw It at the wall" test
every cuber died inside when he saw him open it 💀
No
@@cubingperm6 Yes
@@cubingperm6yes
@@noel_996 every cuber? are you dumb, as someone who has cubed for 3 years, i didnt give a shit
Regarding the sticker colors, they may have faded with time and slightly changed shades
cubehead are you gonna make a full euros vlog
Jep going to edit that this week!
i was one of the guys to review your 4x4
2:37 my right ear is falling asleep
Yooooo Nice video 😃 i enjoyed it
Luv the vids dude
I hope you can compare the GAN 14 Maglev Pro and the Moyu Super Weilong for the next video,like the GAN 13 vs Tornado V3.
5:51 I think they used to solve it with a book guide sold seperately
When it was first released I bought a book that showed you different moves. I couldn't affort a real Rubiks cube so had to get a cheaper knockoff one which had even stickier rotation than the original.
I had a cube from 1980, 57s was my best time.
My wrists are sore just watching you turn that cube.
We need the wall test to be completely sure how it performs.
I was scared that you will throw it at the wall when you said "you know what" you are not that mad yet😂
The world record holder at the time was Minh Thai was 22.95 at worlds
I had one as a kid and I can tell you that the original Rubik's Cube did not have a guide. You had to purchase a book if you wanted the solution. I did (and I think I still have it somewhere). I memorized that thing and I could solve the cube in about a minute or so. People were impressed. Ah, those were the days...
i can solve 2 fast 3x3s when Cubehead solves one old cube
Happy birthday Cubehead
Vote for making video. Of 1 dollar cube vs Rubik’s cube
That cube so old, that even plastic of the box, that wanna be transparent, become yellow
15:11 i think 1 minute and 14 seconds
Yo Cubehead! I love your videos dude! My name is Tito and I really like rubik's cubes (not from the rubik's brand of course) my main cube right now is a MoYu Huameng Ys3m with ball core and UV coating, I average 40 seconds with the basic method and I would like to know which cube Is good for me, I am starting to learn CFOP with your course.
Idk, the cube I got in 1980 had yellow and white opposite, also blue and green and red and orange. All of the regular Rubik's cubes I've ever seen had the usual color pattern. There were pastel versions and picture versions but in the U.S. the pattern was always the same unless it was an off brand.
Vaseline is what people used to grease them with, it took a while for them to loosen up, if they did at all.
Years later, around 84 or 5 I think, someone wrote a solution book. I had no help solving it but it took a long time, like months, for me to figure it out. The last layer edges were what confounded me but the corners were easy. The middle was fun to figure out. One day I'll try to follow a speed tutorial, I usually need at least 2 or 3 minutes if my brain is functioning properly, using what I figured out myself. The crappy turning is all I've ever known so I can't wait to get a speed cube.
I just realized all of the gan flagships have had a different case design. The 11 is the only one with two parts that open up, the 12 is the only one with a clear case, 13 is the only magnetic case, and the 14 is the only one with a secret compartment
i think i have the same yr old but its already opened :D and without the box - now i really know what i have in my drawer all days :D i was learning how to solve rubik cube with the first original :D now i know why it turns so badly
I'm pretty sure the colors were arranged randomly for the first few years that Rubik's cubes were sold.
I'm 50 now and owned an original Rubik's when i was a kid in the 80s.
I recently bought one for my daughter, having never touched one since the 80s.
I was surprised by how lightweight and "cheap" it felt because the turning motion was so loose in comparison to what i remembered.
Obviously in the 80s it was just a toy. It wasn't designed for competitive speed cubing, and that's certainly not what i used it for as a kid.
I really miss the stiff turns, it made the puzzle feel more substantial. The modern one just feels so flimsy by comparison.
Oh and i definitely "solved" my cube in the 80s by popping out the pieces. I can't vouch for the strength of 45 year old plastic but it can definitely be done.
imagine opening the 44 yrs sealed rubiks cube
cube head still beats my times with a rubiks brand
Can you please make more solving tutorials for like piramixes and megamixes and all that
10:37 Now you know why "old time" (1982, for instance) speed cubers turned the cube like they're building a steam locomotive. 😁
tbh cubehead,idk why your vid are so good,but i rly do enjoy it,Am i the only one?lol
Hey sir! I think it's your birthday today if so happy birthday. I love your content and whenever I wanted to start cubing again , you post very exiting content
@cubehead Is today really your birthday? Tried to look it up online, but can’t seem to find it…
What Happens If You Make a Custom Setup Of That Cube???
Like Adding Maglev, Core Magnets And Corner Edge Magnets
W video idea
Z3Cubing probably gonna do that in a few months
Cube head, please make a lookahead tutorial, it’s the difference between my 11 second f2l, and your 5 second f2l. I know how to basically do it, but when I turn at your speed, the pieces just get blurry and I don’t know where they end up. Plus, sometimes I can’t find pairs to lookahead on when I’m doing my current pair. BTW, entertaining video.
8:31 meanwhile j perm🗿🗿🗿
11:22 😂
Never thought this guy wouldn’t throw these cubes.
"More than 3 billion combinations". Well they're not wrong.
Let's see if he also does his drop test against the wall with both cubes😂😂
50k likes better come quick.
I got an original (pre-owned) rubik's cube from 1980s but, it came at a price of my first ever rubik's cube (2014) to get destroyed... (2014 now has stickers missing)
Was it worth it?
I don't know.
Dont destroy your first rubik's cube even if you get an original
THE YOO IS BACK!!!!!!
Rubux cube went into mass production in 1980, I bought mine in 1981
I got $150 Rubik's Cube for Christmas pretty sure it would be like $90 for him I'm in Canada everything's more expensive
Just remember Minh Thai solved a cube this bad in just 22 seconds using corners first
10:02 I wonder if it is the original sticker shades and the older one, due to age, has had the color change over time?
it's a toy, not a collectors item. Toys are no fun in the box. Glad you opened it.
