Hey everyone my name is Simon and today I will be attempting a world record
there's a brand new mass-produced puzzle that just came out it is called the Examinx
the Examinx is a 12-sided puzzles that has 151 pieces on each side this
puzzle literally just came out this month so not a lot of people have it yet
if you look at this up close there are so many tiny pieces built on this puzzle
last year Cubastic posted a YouTube video solving the hardest puzzle in the
world he solved the Petaminx in 5 hours and 36 minutes but now there's a harder
puzzle and only one person in the entire world has solved it so far which makes it a
world record but he solved it in 9 hours and 19 minutes this is my world record
attempt first I'll have to scramble this massive puzzle and ended up taking more
than five minutes to scramble this
there were just so many hard pieces and the puzzle was kind of oily so here is
the scramble it looks kind of nice and pretty daunting at first but I'm going
to take this challenge on and try to break this world record the time to beat
nine hours 19 minutes I need your support so please hit that like button
this will help me tremendously the puzzle is scrambled let's go for the
timer I'm using an old iPad to keep track of my progress so the first step I
decided to do was solve the white centerpiece the way I'm going to go
about this is to solve each of the 12 centers solve the edges and then solve
it like a regular megaminx the first Center is especially hard because one
tiny piece just one piece can be literally anywhere on the 12 sided
puzzle it was very difficult to find those pieces and the first Center took a
while
okay white Center is done I completed that in 32 minutes now time for the
second Center which I will be doing is purple
and last move like that purple Center is done we are at one hour 15 minutes 2
centers done 10 more to go next yellow Center is done after solving the 3
Center and became slightly easier because 3 of those 12 sided were already
done so I had to look at less faces to find different pieces
the blue center the fourth Center is done two more to go and I'm halfway
there we're at the two-hour 14 mark and I'm
calculating my time and I'm way under the nine-hour 90-minute world record pace
red Center is done I waste no time at all and start solving the next Center
right away
we are over three hours in and six centers have been completed half of the
Examinx centers are done I'll focus on the next six to complete the twelve
center at this point I'm thinking to myself I can actually break this world
record so I kept pushing and turning as fast as possible
the next Center pink was completed in 20 minutes
at this point I started thinking I can break this world record
I could even smash this world record so I turned as fast as I could for the next
couple hours and see where I'll end up at one point I wanted to stop because I
couldn't find one piece and it was giving me so much wasted time but I kept
finding it found it did not give up and kept pushing
now we are on to the last two centers which can be pretty tricky
at first there's a different strategy to solving the last two centers because all
the ten centers are done and you're just left with the last two so you had to
make sure to not mess up the rest of the ten centers when you're solving the last
two Centers
and just like that in 4 hours and 32 minutes
all 12 centers on this Examinx is done
it looks pretty sweet from this angle but we can't stop there we have to keep
going
now there are 30 edges that needs to be completed solving these edges was
actually pretty easy except sometimes I couldn't find a piece so I would have to
look for it for a couple minutes which is a time-waster I felt nervous
sometimes because I couldn't find a piece and it was giving me a headache
for 2 to 5 minutes within 1 and a half hours I solved 30 edges
and now it's time to do the final process it solve it just like a regular
megaminx puzzle this is the easy step but sometimes it's very hard to turn to
layers because you have to line it up exactly or you don't want this $400
puzzle to break
we're getting to the end I'm smiling excited to complete the last turn
doing the last algorithm and boom we are done yeah then just like that six
hours seven minutes this Examinx has been completed this Examinx looks
beautiful when it's solved again smiling and excited that I've broken this world
record of 9 hours and 19 minutes completing this Examinx in 6 hours
and 7 minutes I was also reminded that Cubastic finished the
Petaminx in 5 hour 36 minutes so I was 30 minutes from his time when he did the
Petaminx and I did the Examinx piece of cake
comment below what your reaction was because i really want to read them and
please give this video a like if you enjoyed this as much as i did thank you
so much for watching me solve this Examinx for the first time while breaking
a world record be sure to subscribe for more crazy puzzle videos so you don't
miss them again thank you so much for watching and i'll catch you guys later
