Speedcubing Journey of Lucas Etter
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 พ.ย. 2016
- Exactly one year ago, Lucas Etter broke the Rubik's Cube world record with a time of 4.90 seconds. He became a speedcuber in 2011 and strived to be on top one day. With support from other cubers, his family, and his friends, Lucas achieved his goal and found a home in the cubing community. This video, in commemoration of his world record anniversary, summarizes his journey these past 6 years.
I would like to thank everyone for helping me in some way throughout my cubing career. Even though I first competed a long time ago, I still have a strong passion for cubing and love to be a part of the community. I cannot wait to see how cubing grows in the future.
This video was edited by my dad. Thanks to him for making this video and for being very supportive!

Lucas - **solves Rubik's cube in 4.9 seconds**
Me - **tries to figure out the white cross**
Lucas- *sets a new world record*
Me- *Sits on couch, already given up on it.*
hilarious!
Schiwie ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ feliks zemdegs solvse it in 3.85
No. its 4.73..
XTitanus Agario that is the wr, 3.85 is his pb
You are such an inspiration! So happy to finally meet you! :)
Hi Leo Big Pp
Same with you!
Sum time later:
Leo gets 4.41 seconds while practising
His reaction: 😐
Leo you show of 🤣
You too..
fact: all legendary speed cubers starts in Rubik's brand
Evan Martinez does that mean I’m now a legendary speed cuber
Cuberious 😢
HELP ME MY CLASSMATE DOSENT LISTEN TO ME WHEN IM TEACHING HIM F2L HE WAS LIKE NO IT WILL BREAK NO NO IT WILL BREAK MY CROSS and i go omg and he goes i want to start with 2x2 i go BAD IDEA learn 3x3 and u know how to solve a 2x2 with out watching a tutorial...
Noooo, I started with v cube
+CD Cuber tell him/her even if it does break the cross he/she can just fix it.
3:10 all that (even the turning) is synced with the music
They purposefully did that
@@colbypyles2677 Whick is hard to time
What is the music
canary
they actually did not do it purposefully they added all solves and somehow it was synced. so true dat.
I feel bad for the next generation of speedcubers after this one. They won't be able to set any new records with any of the standard puzzles as all WR's will be practically unbeatable xD
IKR. Rip my dreams
TKO Cuber Same
Tsskyx true and i bet that the world records would stay the same for the next 10 yeard
Nah we will evolve into robots and finnally solve a cube within 0.02 seconds within 50 years. And also invent a cube suitable for that speed.
Eh? If you're talking about FMC, then the current WR is 19 moves.
great video! good to see your father being so supportive of you :) congrats again on the 4.90, buddy
Keaton Ellis I am such a big big fan of yours great to see you in the comments.
Keaton Ellis he took your record in 81 minutes
I would have been so sad ;-; ^
gforthfire 😨😨😨😨 you sed a bad word
Keaton Ellis ikr wait............. theres a new WR dangit i want lucas' world record last forever
Notice how much his voice changes when he says "YES"
No!
When he say world record!
Felix : 4:22 seconds
YuSheng: Im about to end this mans whole career
It's FeliKS, not FeliX
Feliks not felix
lucas etter is the only person to break 2 world records in 1 compettion in 2 hours
INCEPTION TIME
Poker FloppityFlop
nice
Max park beat 2 world records, he go the wr for 6x6 single and 6x6 wr average
No he didn’t, Keaton set the 5.09 and Lucas set the 4.90
Lol no some got 2 wrs in same average. Average wr and single wr
Him: solves in 4.9 seconds.
Me: can’t do the simplest algorithm in 5 seconds.
I only have the cross in 5 seconds
i only have the cross in 15 seconds lmao
@@wildgamerz1993 Oh, what method do u use?
AltijdGaming Beginner’s Method
i use roux
First solve took 4:20 seconds/mins. Lucas, You are such a dank boi!
Frutipro
Mine was 4:59.0x
I used a really cheap small one it was like 30mm
Lol
Mine was 2:12
Frutipro
Josh ShyGuy my first solve was 1 day 23 hours 2 minutes and 59 seconds
I feel like the next person to beat mats valk's 4.7 is feliks
or drew brads or kennan L
Joseph Carinci nah its gonna be me
I don't know why but I feel it's gonna be Patrick
feliks can definitely surpass the record set by a lot, I just dont get why he's not even trying to
No I think it's Collins burns
So that poor guy's records stayed for only 81 minutes? I feel bad for him
3:10 that was absolutely amazing how it synced like that holy cow
Wow I wish my dad was that supportive of cubing I like be how your dad totally gets it he understands cubing that's awesome!
3:17 perfect drop
That's on purpose btw
ohh 😱
Isaac W finally someone else that noticed
even the table slap just before the drop was on beat
Wow. Just wow. Lucas you may have heard this response a million times but I am going to say it anyway. This video is inspiring and so are you. People have mentioned that you are shy, and that's okay. Keep doing what your doing because it's just plain impeccable. Gj man
bruh feliks is much better fam
3:12 That part where it was perfectly on beat was so satisfying
:21 protip: you can lubricate the springs inside your cube to get rid of that annoying springy sound.
XTownCuber, almost every single cuber (like me) knows that xD
XTownCuber literally everybody knows that
GMD PizzaDerp he is talking about 0:21 first solve rec on cam
XTownCuber oh!!! Seriously I should try that on my Rubiks brand😂😂
Everyone nos dat
This man is my role model. I wouldn't have started cubing if I hadn't heard of him. Not only for his 4.90, but his battle with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. My dad actually had arthritis on his shoulder, and they replaced it with some kind of mechanical ball. Lucas Etter is my inspiration for being a cuber today, and nothing would be the same without him. If you're reading this, thank you so much Lucas. You are my hero. :)
5:17 it says “unmixing” :/
diamondnether34 Non-Cuber cringe
*cringes in cuber*
Y’all teens think you’re so better.
Colbie Robloxgirl stfu
Colbie Robloxgirl lmao and you play roblox.
Wow this is a REALLY great video that needs to be seen by so many more people!
This vid never gets old watched it 10 times
Same
Good for you Dad for supporting your son and taking him to all the competitions. He couldn’t have done it without you
Lucas: Omg! I broke the world record!
That guy solving a cube: Hold on, I need to do this, wait...
This was so inspirational :)
Cameron McKee ikr
Lucas:*get a new record*
Others:RECORD RECORD *Screaming
Lucas:let me try to sign this
Good Job Lucas, you inspire me every day! Good Edit:)

ACAwesomeness lol that’s exactly how it is 😂
i'm sorry

HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT IS
shhh wait for someone rage at it
He didn’t even give credit to his grandparents for finding his talent for rubikscubes
Thanks man only of you i Started speedcubing. Your the Best!👌🏽
Great video Lucas! It really inspired me. I am around the same age as you and I just started cubing this year and I'm already getting solves arouns 20 seconds. One day I hope I can get a WR just like you did! :)
I remember about 2 years ago when i was 9 i would pretend breaking the world record all the time :p its two years since i have solved a cube in 5 days :)
KymCubes lol
lol
KymCubes lol same
lmberman
Wait so now youre 12? We're i the same age lol
5:00 I feel bad for that person trying to solve in all that chaos...
fun fact: i was born on september 26th and this was recorded on septermer 27th.
i was born before a legend solved his first cube on camera
A lot of cubers inspire me and your my favorite inspiration
“In a competition in November”
*October 15*
Lucas Etter : i wanna get the world record
Mats Valk : hold my cube
Yu Sheng Du : Cube My Hold
Feliks Zemdegs : My Hold Cube Hold My
Thanks Lucas you have been a very big motivation for me for speedcubing. Thank you very very much😊😊😊😊
Amazing video, this is probably gonna be the type of video I'll watch over and over again.
Same So Inspirational! :) !! :) :')
Watch it again.
Lucas can you upload the full Keaton ellis reaction ?
The Time Waster Yes
Ha ha !!
Ben Luu hi
He even started to pretend he had his own channel
Has 43k subs
lucascube: am I a joke to u boi?
Hey lucas, i started cubing mid-last year, my First ever solve i got 4 minutes and 32 seconds and ive been practicing and my pb is 27 seconds, watching this video is encouraging me to get faster, thank you
Wow I didn't know that Keaton had it for only 80 minutes lol. Nice vid and keep up the good work.👍
Fast forward to 2019 and kids are speed building in a video game instead
Man but that hit on the table was perfect timed with the beat 3:13
Him and other record holders: *goes under 5 seconds*
Me: *can't even solve the cross in 10*
This is touching!
Wow! Awesome video!
DMCubing ikr
And I'm still stuck learning cll for 2x2
Person: What do you do for fun
Me: *Solving Rubik’s cubes*
happy 2 years anniversary since you got the 4.90 solve
6:08 Is that supposed to be funny?!
ikr
Yeah unless you live in Kentucky
Andrew Tyberg ikr
He literally insulted every speed cuber there. Nicely done. We are for sure not humans too apperently.
A very nice joke. Very nice...
get the wr back!
Jet cube chances of that are 6x less as he isn't colour neutral
When Lucas sees the number 4.904
He might start crying in joy
Wow! Such an inspiring video!
3:45 lmao
your dad is the best
this is actually inspiring me to get better with 3x3, ty man ;)
I've never seen that angle from 4:55 :) It's fun to see the guy in front just wants to finish his solve in stead of celebrating like everyone does lol. I totally understand that but just fun he's solving while someone just broke the WR.
Great compilation tho!
How did you learn to solve it that fast? I want to do that too! Right now my PB is only 59 seconds though
At 6:20 the color scheme is wrong
No it's not
How is it wrong
It is wrong because when you hold it like that that the yellow faces u and red is on too the blue should be on the right
Kakarotto back when Rubik’s cubes first came out it was blue on the bottom and yellow to the right of the red. Maybe it’s an old cube.
@@myguy4w164 lol
He said "Yes" every time he beat his records💜
well done man keep on cubing
Well....I'm just here holding my unsolved Rubik's cube for 2 days
will its 5 months later did you solve it
@@mhamadhashem682 did you solve it?
@@seanblah6711 still trying
Lucas:solve a cube at 4.90 seconds
Me:finish a cross
It takes me 8 friggin seconds to solve the cross
AidenThat1Cuber you will improve
US-Lucas Etter is the youngest cuber who got the world record
Leo Borromeo-am I a joke to you
Wow awesome video I enjoyed every second of it
How do people put the cube down so fast?
Uhh. Just put it down mate. Its not that hard
0:05 kinda looks like he was gonna dab
evry time lucas dab, feliks breaks uwr
Atomic Blaze blizzard4432 fuck off
how dare you
The inspiration 😂😂 the whole reason I got into cubing was cause of you Lucas, so thank you for this. I'm down to 18.88, and I started last year. hope we can meet at comp one day
Do you still cube if so what do you average now
Do you still cube if so what do you average now
The Waniel doesnt care about the world record...
The Waniel still got his revenge at Marietta. Speaking of Marietta guess who has the better average...
Did anyone else see Lucas almost getting elbowed in the face at 4:34?
Rubiks Cuber I was about to comment this
This is inspiring man !!! *goes to learn a new alg* :D
This is inspiring!
I learned how to solve a cube on 12 july 2019 no joke
Lol
@@manillametro9952 its true
@@noobgamer-dg6qf i know. Congrats, but most of the viewers here can atleast solve in 1 minute
and puf the WR is gone
awesome video!!!
So beautiful I cry every time
Whenever I see a giraffe, I'll think of Lucas Etter
lmao
At 2:04 The Kid Beside Him Got 47 seconds.😂
He was using a 4x4, can’t blame him
that kid grew up to be max park
Even then that's quite impressive
Bet u can't even solve it
I just started cubing, it’s hard to get sub 1:00, come on all of you cubes, ain’t I right, don’t make fun of him. Bet you can’t solve a 2x2
3:38 tho....
Cubing is Cubing cringy
nica vid and hopes for more vids from you :D
who noticed derpy cuber at 6:40
NBA2KV5Madd3n Sports gamer and tpc
and 6:47 there's colourfulpockets in the background
And TPC!
I'm 10 and I solve it in 1 min. I wanna be on the news!
Good luck with that
A Not So Normal TH-cam Channel Lucas Etter could solve it at roughly 30 lol
Del 234 lol
I am seven and I can solve it in 55 seconds
A Not So Normal TH-cam Channel are you tricking ppl into giving out their age?
I really love this video
3:18 u hit the table with the beat my OCD is pleased
The fist Recorded solve under 5 seconds was not achieved by lucas.
um
Barn Owl That's why he said official......
Are you the same Kangaroux from discord?
Yes
It's the first official world record under 5 seconds ever recorded, though
wtf his 14 years old im 14 too and i average sub 12 :/
I am 13 and avg ~15. I suck so bad lel
Cuber GT im 14 also i just started a few weeks back and im down to a 30 to 40 average
Cuber GT I'm 15 sub 35 lmao I barely started like a month but don't even practice everyday
wow i average 1 min but im 11
I don't think age really matters when solving a cube except if you are like 9 or under
Amazing!
Wow. And look at where you are now. Congrats
I cringed a couple times...
Love this
i'm not crying
you are
**sobs**
truly motivational narration
Lucas thanks for being a idle to me and helping me have motivation in cubing
Very inspiring!
Watching this video for the second some, so inspiring :)
