-Anybody can solve a Rubik's cube blindfolded. I recorded a video of myself doing it at seventeen years old[1] using the Classic Pochmann method[2]. It took me ten minutes, but speedcubers like Flavian do it on Britain's Got Talent in under thirty.[3]
+Anybody can solve a Rubik's cube blindfolded. I recorded a [video of myself](https://files.nicholasjohnson.ch/rubiks-cube-blindsolve.webm) doing it at seventeen years old using the [Classic Pochmann method](https://www.stefan-pochmann.info/spocc/blindsolving/3x3/old.php).

In my experience, most people are impressed if you can solve a Rubik's cube at all. The truth is, if you dedicate yourself, you can probably learn how to solve a Rubik's cube sighted in a day. There's not much to it. It's just memorizing sequences of moves called algorithms and knowing when to use them.

To me, the impressive aspect of Flavian's performance was his speed. He was incredibly fast. It took me twenty times as long, although in my video that was only the first or second time I had done it. Still, speed takes practice and his practice shows.
I usually have an important or deep message in my entries, but not this one. I just wanted to point out that this seemingly impossible feat is actually something anybody can learn to do.
