Charlie Eggins, the Rubik's Cube maestro, has just shattered not only records but also our perception of what is humanly possible! Susie had the pleasure of chatting with this puzzle prodigy after he achieved the unthinkable at the Australian Nationals in Moreton Bay in September 2023.
Move over Spider-Man, because Charlie here can solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded faster than you can say "web-slinging superhero!" With a mind-blowing time of 12.10 seconds, he has officially secured the World Record single for blindfolded cubing. Did I mention he did it with his eyes closed? Or covered at least.
Charlie's talents extend far beyond his impressive solving skills. He's also a YouTube sensation, where you can find him posting videos that are equal parts educational, inspiring, and as addictive as a Rubik's Cube itself. Whether you're a novice or a seasoned speedcuber, Charlie's channel is the place to be if you want to embark on or continue your speedcubing journey.
