[SirWaffle]

Rosstheboss said I should get some bolt cutters after my pesky thumbs but I decided to go for the less permanent approach.

This proves cats may one day be able to solve cubes.

I got 1:23.86 on first try.
I didn't tape my thumbs, I just didn't use them.

If this video gets 15 likes I will film an OH solve with my thumbs taped. So like this video if you want to see that!

hehehe; tape your head to the table.

Support cube with fingers of one hand, wrist using the other. I just got a 1:12.xy first attempt and it was pretty slow. I've no idea how to OH without thumbs though so that should be interesting to see.

53 seconds after 8 attempts.

 

[SirWaffle]

Awesome! I wonder if anyone could get sub 30

36.92 first try thumbless. My basic approach is to mainly hold the cube with my left hand (index on FL, other three fingers in the BL/BLD area) and then use my right index and middle fingers to do turns.

I just added rankings out of boredom.

49.13 on 4th try

 

[MWilson]

31.66 with Roux and a 50mm Zhanchi with anti-sune CMLL and 3 move 4a. I don't know how many tries, but I've been doing this for close to an hour and my hands are hating me.

sneaklyfox' place and mine should be swapped. i am no good at math, but i think 49 is less than 53. also sneaklyfox' and dominate's name are the only ones not bolded.
