I grew up in the 80s, and know how difficult the Rubik's Cube is to solve...actually Keith and I did the exact same thing after about 30 seconds of "trying" -- we pulled the stickers off and moved the colors around. We never claimed to be overachievers.

I can't even solve the Rubik's cube if I take all the stickers off and stick them back on. I have NO idea how he does it, but I had to share with you....(he solves it at about 1:30...)
