According to Guinness World Records, George Scholey, a 20-year-old from the United Kingdom, set the record for the most rotating puzzle cubes solved in a 24-hour period with an astounding 6,931.
According to GWR, Mr. Scholey broadcast his attempt live from a London hotel room. Between November 9 at 8 a.m. and November 10 at 8 a.m., he locked himself in that room. He broadcast his performance live so devoted Rubik's cube fans could watch him perform.
He surpassed the mark of 5,800, which was established by Canadian Eric Limeback in 2013. The typical time for Mr. Limeback was 14.89 seconds.
Mr. Scholey accomplished 327 rotating puzzles in the first hour by himself. By the seventh hour of the activity, he had already completed more than 3,500 puzzles.
Speaking with GWR, Mr. Scholey stated "Reaching the 12-hour milestone was the record's most challenging challenge. While everyone else was so excited, I was feeling really exhausted. They said in joy, "You're on target to smash the record." However, I afterwards thought, "It's only 12 hours.""
According to the website, despite laptop technical issues, mental challenges, and weariness, the 20-year-old from the UK quickly passed 5,849 solutions with four hours left on the clock. He kept going and completed 1000 more puzzles before the timer expired.
He was disappointed because he couldn't solve all 7,000 cubes. He said to GWR, "I was getting close to 7,000 at the end of the night, so I'm disappointed that I didn't reach that goal. But it's okay. It's a 24-hour attempt, and I took breaks as well."
Curiously, the 20-year-old finished the
record on November 10, which is recognised as Guinness World Records Day, and
Editor-in-Chief Craig Glenday gave him his official record certificate.
