The history of the fastest WCA 3x3 one-handed singles

WARNING: Some of the times (approx. 2%) are shown as 0.01 seconds lower than they should be. I'll fix this bug if I ever make an update video in the future!
With 19 record-holders, this video features the most active world record history so far!

[@yannikrossanigo1317]

[@antoineccantin]

Man, North-America sure were slackers from mid-2012 through to 2014

[@DGCubes]

Perfect video, as expected. I don't see how this could ever get old. :D

[@madmatthew1]

+DGCubes When a new world record it set

[@thephysicistcuber175]

when I do 8

[@dyray732]

What if the one handed record was faster than the two handed record 🤔

[@alesholman801]

Max Park almost did it but it was misscramble

[@AlexMaass]

more average videos pls
I swear I will be pissed when the pyraminx average video comes out, I'm ranked 11th in the world...

[@deadchannel7073]

Alex Maass wow so close but its 2017 now what rank are you now?

[@WilliamPeytz]

he's 5th

[@AlexMaass]

5th for single (was 3rd when I got it), and 15th for pyraminx average, my 3.09 average was 11th at one point xD

[@deadchannel7073]

oh well congrats on the single! my pb is 5 minutes lol

[@williamherring]

Checking in again in 2021

[@mushk1ng]

Really like these videos, but one suggestion is at the end when you have the comparisons, make the old leadboard have a more distinct beginning. If that makes sense, right now the beginning is a little faded and makes it hard to see.

[@cubykh]

+Phinagin The old leaderboard is supposed to connect all the way back to the left side of the screen at 0, the same place where the new leaderboard is connected. The only reason I have that fading effect at all is so that they don't overlap... but it reality, they're connected to the same place. Although... I think I know what I can do in the future to make that clearer!

[@thequebee_0101]

Feliks is still there

[@the1barbarian781]

Thanks for the giant warning. Those wrong times are scaring me

[@thequebee_0101]

Little did people know at the time know that the record would not only last for 101 days but more than 1550 days!
EDIT:IK It's broken

[@Wintokenn]

I cant beleave that in the first place is a Latvian descent! That's just amazing!

[@christopherbaird4952]

In 2004 my best OH single (1:05.85) would have gotten me 4th on the world. Now it wouldn't even make the hard cut in many competitions, and I don't think I've seen a competition advertised that it would make the soft cut.

[@deadchannel7073]

Christopher Baird so you are cubing in over 10 years? wow even older than me

[@tothewheel]

TNT Cuber no, I've only been cubing a couple of years. I was commenting on how far times have advanced.

[@bloodraven2.036]

2010 Feliks Zemdegs joined the game

[@iatecandyland]

GOOD MUSIC

[@Blade_of_Tomoe]

This is gonna take a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG AMOUNT OF TIME TO BE BROKEN

[@cubewr1977]

Max Park

[@crazyoldben1871]

If I was in the world championships 2003, with my Gans 356 air um. I would be In third place. Now I'm probably like in the top 3000

[@FortniteGamer-li2tw]

its a battle beetween Chris Hardwick and Shotaro Makisumi for like 1 minute

[@Hfrill]

Tristian Martin lol

[@jamsalad]

still isn't out of date lmao

[@MrMichalMalek]

Are you going to make a video about every WCA discipline?

[@cubykh]

Michal Málek I think so! That means about 30 videos because some events have singles and averages.

[@MrMichalMalek]

Would be very nice

[@asierrayk]

Michal Málek that would be awesome

[@JabariNuruddin]

Cube Roll Have you considered putting the average rankings/times of the competitors on the single rankings to show how lucky the singles are?

[@jaddvirji717]

Cube Roll How about other changes to the WCA? Like events and major rule changes as well?

[@mathilix8800]

Goooooood work !!

[@theWestonian]

Hmmmm I don't remember being asked if you could use my hand and cube for the intro photo... :p

[@thephysicistcuber175]

You forgot because of One Handed Amnesia

[@otistically]

[@swagpie9746]

My sister tried to solve a rubik’s cube while I was watching this.

[@jaddvirji717]

Alex Maass, quick, get in there before the video is made!

[@myth4359]

Dang from 8.27 to 6.88! That’s impressive even for today’s standards

[@franciscohamlin7544]

If it's not too much to ask, after you finish all events, could you make the same for south america, as we almost never got on top-10s

[@kyrawr83]

+Francisco Hamlin
There's a continental one now, for 3x3 single. :D

[@thephysicistcuber175]

By the same logic Africa should be preferred

[@vvg_lol]

At one point, America took over 80% of the leaderboard. 😂😂

[@MarkGamed]

Heck yeah, Canada!

[@GerdTerd]

Feliks I don't... I... I don't even...

[@audigamerkingofthieves3588]

Leyan Lo. xD

[@shkcubing2482]

I would have been 9th placed in the world..
In 2003

[@thisisaspa]

On the other hand,

[@danielgoncalves1382]

[@deadchannel7073]
