I'm Sam, I'm 17 years old and I'm from
Manindra which is just south of Perth
0:06
Western Australia. I've been a cuber for
a very long time. I can solve the Rubik's
0:12
Cube in about 10 seconds on the ground.
Last year also I got my skydiving
0:19
license, my Australian skydiving license,
which allows me to do skydives solo and
0:25
with friends who also have their license.
So after doing lots of jumps and getting
0:30
my competence up, my skill level up, I
decided it would be suitable to jump out
0:36
with a Rubik's Cube and do a solo. I
thought that'd be a really fun idea. It
0:40
took five attempts for me to finally
break the record. The first few I was
0:46
getting the feel for how it felt like to
turn the cube in freefall. It was a lot
0:51
harder than I expected. The final record
ended up I achieved a time of 28 seconds
0:56
quite a lot slower than I was expecting
but I'm happy with it nonetheless

So good bro! Congratulations, I
think it is. How are you feeling
1:28
It feels good, I'm confident. Yeah? Yeeeees
