Vunderkind Plays Guitar Hero On Expert While Solving Two Rubik's Cubes

Yes, you read that headline right: This kid plays Guitar Hero: World Tour on Expert difficulty while solving two Rubik's Cubes at the same time.


Now, keep in mind that I am a career journalist. Writing is my job. So when I say "I have no words," that is because my mind has been completely blown. If I had been wearing socks today instead of sandals, they would have been thoroughly knocked off.

Playing Guitar Hero - in this case, Ozzy Osbourne's "Mr. Crowley" - on Expert is a skill in and of itself. Being able to solve Rubik's Cubes in just over a minute with a single hand is certainly a skill in and of itself.

Now, imagine that you're strumming the guitar controller with your elbow. And you're playing the game by looking in a mirror. And you're dividing your attention between Cube and Hero simultaneously. Can you really blame the kid for only hitting 77% of the notes?

My mind is blown. I think that means it's officially weekend time.

That kid is amazing!, a god!, what the hell?

now see what if the kid actually put the effort into something that mattered?
This is hardly something useful, ground breakingly awesome as it may be
Stop lazing around doing pointless shit and cure cancer you fuck

And I thought the blind gamer who was attempting OoT was in possession of the most useless, and yet still totally amazing, skill on the planet.

I was so, so wrong.

There is only one thing on my mind:
WHY?
Why would you feel this urge to make people feel a bit insignificant?
This is coming from a guy who spends his time here:
maybe that kid needs to get out more...

And already the flaming commences...
Hardly, the kids a god, he could probably overthrow god with his rub-ix cubes before the evening is out, nothing malicious was intended in the post.

I suppose he could apply this to the "guitar hero rub ix cube Challenge off" against a cliche opponent with some kind of plot twist and then a suspenseful ending with the kid finishing his cube first.

Wheres micheal bay? we can add explosions to this!

What is it with all the flaming lately? I certainly didn't think a thread about Guitar Hero that didn't involve console wars would involve flaming.

WOW...I wish we had this kid on the escapist.

He, John, but some of that scandal power into motion and get him on here. xD

I mean, he surely must LIKE video games, and if he is a casual gamer I will beat him with a rubix cube...Then fix him up and give him a gold medal, but still. xD

You shouldn't be awe struck by this, it probably took a LOT of training to do this which could be way better spent.. Thats what I think at least >.<

I think anything less than the words "fucking sweet" to describe this would be a crime.
Even my Guitar Hero hating friend thought it was amazing

All you people who say "SADDO", "GET SOME FRIENDS" etc. may say that, but you cannot deny that it is one hell of a fucking skill. he could probably play Splinter Cell with one hand and Gears of War with the other...

Yes, this kid's amazing hand eye coördination and concentration will magically concoct the cure for all the world's problems.

Anyway, wow.

That is all i have to say
