How long does it take you to solve a Rubik's Cube? Prepare to feel wholly inadequate when you learn that teenager Collin Burns set the world record on Saturday by solving the standard 3x3 multicolored cube puzzle in a blazingly fast 5.253 seconds at a Rubik's Cube competition.
The previous record, set in 2013 by Mats Valik, was 5.55 seconds. Burns somehow managed to shave a full three-tenths of a second of the previous record, and it's insane to watch the video of Burns accomplishing the feat in as little time as it takes you to read this sentence.
It was especially mind-blowing for me as it takes me 5.253 seconds to even start thinking about how I'm going to go about solving the Rubik's Cube. Check out the record-breaking performance in the video above.
