Can I Teach @MichelleKhare to Solve a Rubik's Cube in less than 60 SECONDS

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Hey , nice to see you .

Hello .

What's up ?

Oh my God , that's not what we say here .

Are you excited to learn how to solve a Rubik's cube ?

I'm so excited to learn what the hell is going on with Rubik's Cube .

What the hell is going on ?

What's up Cubers ?

We're about to have another cuber .

This is Michelle Carre .

You may recognize Michelle from some of these videos formerly at buzzfeed and now is a professional challenge acceptor .

Oh , ok .

I should be careful around her .

Michelle is going to try and solve a Rubik's cube in under one minute after only one week of training .

Is that even possible ?

Who cares ?

She flew me out and paid for my hotel .

I'm a real youtuber now , I'm gonna get some rest and I guess we'll see what happens tomorrow .

The day has arrived .

I'm up and let's go teach some Rubik's cubes .

I am visiting my first professional studio and the whole team is setting up for the shoot later .

Yes , of course .

She has an entire team and then there's just me last night , Michelle got a table just for this video because she wanted the Rubik's cubes to look good on it .

Oh , hey , there's Michelle .

We're just exploring the studio .

Michelle is gonna show me around .

This is all of Hollywood .

Wow , we're in front of a green screen and I'm gonna try to change that into something else and fully on the green screen .

There you go .

OK .

Well , you can put us in the ocean or inside a Rubik's Cube or on the Rubik's Cube .

I hope it worked .

I just wanna find out .

OK .

This is offices .

This is where the , the Hollywood big weeks .

Decide what the next Marvel movie is gonna be .

Podcast studio .

I'm gonna need one of those one day .

Hollywood is amazing .

So I'll put this , everything's going in the video .

Oh We're , we're back where we started .

Hollywood is not very big .

Michelle has never solve a Rubik's cube .

Basically not even touched one .

I'm going to be showing her a bunch of these cubes .

Well , the banana is not a cube and she has no clue , but I actually brought the 21 by 21 cube with me .

Uh I actually got stopped at airport security for this .

So Michelle is doing the intro right now for her video working with coach Dylan .

Shout out I talk to him .

Wow , insulting .

This is way too professional .

It's my cube .

After hours of setup , we finally started filming the teaching session , but first we started with a little race , but this one , this is a problem .

Then I taught Michelle how to solve the cube using the beginner method .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

It's actually free to learn it on youtube .

But nobody tell her that Michelle , how are you awful ?

Now she's doing actually , she was really struggling , but I'm not supposed to say that we filmed for a long time and there were a lot of great and hilarious moments in this shoot , but it was for Michelle's video .

So make sure after this video you go check that out .

We were told we can't eat lunch until we finish this .

Michelle just solved the cube , which means we finally get to eat .

What are your thoughts solving your first cube ?

What's the first step ?

Find the white side ?

And I don't remember anything else .

Girl says she's a pro at the cross .

Now , let's see if that's true .

Hit it , hit it .

Yes , you did the cross .

How many times have you made the cross ?

Now for a lot of her practice , I will be watching and seeing when she gets comfortable with something and then I'll teach her a shortcut for that step .

You want to hold the white .

So it's on the left or the right side .

See how it's on the front right now .

Now it's on the left and you can do the left sexy move .

That guarantees it goes in , in one repetition .

I never want her to get too comfortable with anything because one week is a very short deadline .

To get her goal of one minute .

And that means we'll have to train very hard and speed through a lot of the learning here .

Don't , you didn't ?

But for now we'll just make sure she can do the basics , family friendly .

No swearing , dang it interview too .

I have a youtube channel called J and I , I keep my eyes .

I'm actually feeling like I'm losing my voice .

I've never done this much filming in one day .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

I've never done this much cubing in a day .

So we're even , you did ?

Great .

Thank you .

He's a movie star .

OK .

So last night came home from building and I literally couldn't put this thing down .

I think I have an idea of what you guys do when you look at it before .

Oh OK .

You're becoming a pro speed keeper .

Two years .

No , no , no , no , no , no .

Wait .

The best thing is I noticed you're still using a lot of the good habits that I told you to use .

A lot of people at this point will start using wrist turns for a lot of the moves just by instinct .

And it's really great that you haven't done that .

I think we should do the third layer .

Now , we need the bottom right to be unsolved and you're just going to repeat the sexy move until that one specifically is .

So then it's OK .

It's OK .

It's OK .

This is really important .

You must always finish the four moves that is a plus two .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Yes , third layer .

OK ?

Now we can do a full solve .

Here's a timer .

I'll show you how to use it .

This is a mess .

I think I forgot .

Here we go .

I'm too nervous when they're done .

OK ?

Um My four .

Yeah , I , I have been to be , I don't know what to do next .

I think I need to stop .

Michelle failed her first attempt at a full solve , but more importantly , she did not lose confidence .

In fact , she wanted more pressure .

So we started live streaming number 69th ranked Cuber in the world .

If you're looking at this side , you can't see what's back here .

Has anyone ever thought about that ?

It's crazy .

Look how fast this turns but you can corner cut on these use code J perm at Speed Cube shop .

Eight seconds .

Oh , freak me out .

Oh , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , I have to go like , oh my God .

No , I hate it when this happens .

Two .

Yes , let's go boys .

Uh So we skipped the crazy .

Don't look at me like that .

Don't look at me like that .

Oh , it's lining up time for the crazy September .

September .

Yes .

3 51 official first .

Yeah , I was supposed to be flying home today but then this happened .

Ok .

So let's have chat , vote chat .

You're going to vote Dylan fly in an hour and a half to go back home .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Should Dylan stay longer so I can actually get this school and just like that I was abducted .

Are you going to teach me more tricks ?

Yes .

The f stop .

The what ?

CF two L go check out .

Yeah .

Yeah .

She knows it .

Now .

She's been saying it all the time .

You keep saying it every five minutes .

That's because you gotta , you gotta use it right quick .

Solve both of these crosses .

The first workout we learned was for making the top cross .

Usually we use the same algorithm which is turn the front , do the four moves and then undo the front turn .

If you start with the horizontal line , this makes the cross .

But if you start with an L shape , you have to do it twice and for a dot You have to do it three times instead with the L shape , you can do a variation where you start with a double layer front turn and then do the four moves and then undo the front turn with two layers .

And then the dot case is just a combination where you start with the normal front turn and then you do the version with the double layer moves .

We went through a bunch of beginner tricks which you can also learn in my how to get faster .

With the beginner method video .

We've taken a break for like five minutes .

It's been five minutes .

Wow .

Look at that turning speed .

Day one turning speed .

Yes , I felt awesome .

Oh here we go .

Right up , left up , right down , left down .

What did I do ?

No , you didn't do anything wrong .

This is basically what you got .

I just saw , oh , it's not done .

I didn't think this .

We learned .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Wow , that I think you would have gotten about 1 35 .

I just set up a bunch of cubes over and over .

She figures it out .

I set a new one up and thank God , this is the benefit of training in person .

All right , this is here .

This is wrong .

One up .

One , one second .

Yes .

Yes .

Sorry .

Headphone users .

Oh my gosh .

Look , someone in the chat says T perm is better than J perm .

Would you agree ?

No , I don't .

It is , it is objectively wrong .

Last time we went to a holiday party .

Are you serious ?

Are you ?

I'm almost done .

Done .

Done .

Eight , 18 seconds .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Let's just say Dylan was the wife of the party .

Today's training .

I was thinking we're not going to learn too many new algorithms .

I've tried to teach you those as early as possible .

We need to remember that algorithms , learning new things like that isn't always everything .

A lot of it still comes down to reducing pauses .

Knowing what your next step is .

This situation .

For example , we have red and blue try to solve this .

I want to see what you do .

Did you notice what you did there ?

Did you even notice that you did that if you can't find a piece , usually it's just like at the back bottom because that's where you can't see .

OK .

It's better to look for pieces that are unsolved rather than find a specific one like red and try to solve that one .

Yes .

On top , what I want you to do instead of rotating the whole cube is to just turn the top because that's gonna cycle through the pieces exactly the same as rotating the whole cube .

Chaos Cube .

What is Chaos Cube ?

Yeah .

No .

Awesome .

OK .

Why look at all these , well , here's to another challenge accepted .

We just finished our final stream together .

It's gonna be sad that I have to leave a couple more days to go .

But I am so proud of how far you have come in such a short amount of time .

You've been an amazing student .

It was a pleasure teaching you .

The next documentary is gonna be Max Park .

Feel exempt eggs and Michelle you escaped the basement .

I don't know .

I'm gonna like walk through the hallway into the plane and it's just your house again .

It was fun and good luck on your goal .

I hope to have good news for you in a few days .

We'll see .

We'll see .

Let's head over to part two of this video on Michelle's channel to see if she finally hits her goal or not .
