Last month, “06880” reported on Noah Arthurs.
The 16-year-old son of Westport RTM representative Lee Arthurs had recently set an American speed record for blind-folded Rubik’s Cube solving: 41.96 seconds.
That was just a warmup.
Now — as an ABC News video shows — the talented teenager quickly finished the Rubik’s Cube behind his back.
While skiing.
The hardest part, he said, was that his fingers were cold.
Of course, Noah is not perfect.
It took him 3 tries.
Maybe because the 1st two — off by just a few pieces — were on black diamond runs.
(Click here for an even more astonishing video, in which Noah reveals his “secret.” Not that you or I can understand — let alone replicate — it.)
Amazing!
There’s a youth that needs to be misspent.
If you want the unusual, the unnoticed or the downtrodden, or to be inspired or to be amused. Come to Dan Woog’s blog. He will never disappoint you.

This elevates the meaning of being able to walk and chew gum at the same time.
Here is the link to the You Tube video for those who are interested:
“reveals his secret” hehe. Implying that there is a secret and that it’s not a combination of technique and practice like any other skill. You want my “secret”? Here’s a link to a series of YouTube videos I made outlining all the techniques I use for blindfolded solving:

Speedcubing is a hobby like any other. Anyone can learn how, but it takes dedication to get good.
