cube) and I am pretty sure everyone of you have seen this puzzle before in your life and even
spent hours scratching your head trying to solve it and if you are anything like me you would
have gotten frustrate and broke it a few times as well although most households own a rubrik’s
cube very few know about the incredible history culture and story behind it.
 This cube is not as impossible as it seems, The seemingly simple and popular cube has a very
fascinating history and interesting facts related to it this was invented by a Hungarian professor
named erno rubriks invented this cube in 1947, and
 the reason he made this cube was to teach his students about three dimensional geometry and
just because he made the cube it does not mean he knew how to solve it. It almost took him one
month to solve the cube and after that this cube became so popular in 1980’s that top 3 selling
books in the world were about how to solve this cube

are many diff variations of it and the limit by now is 33x33.

sapphire s and sold it for 1.5 million dollars and only 5.8% of the people in the world can solve
this cube which is like one out of 20 people and up do date 350 million cubes have been sold so

 Let me tell you about Max Park who was diagnosed with autism as a child and because of that
he was challenged both socially and had issues with basic tasks like opening bottles Cubing was
introduced to him as a way to help develop its motor skills Cubing not only helped him with his
dexterity, but when he started competing with the greats, he developed friendships, which is a
challenge for autistic people. He is the fastest 4x4 and 7x7 cuber in the world. It’s remarkable
how a box made of plastic could take the world by storm. It stands as a true testament of human
ingenuity
