American speedcuber Max Park has set a new world record for solving a Rubik's cube.

It took a California man just 3.13 seconds to solve the puzzle.

This achievement made him one of those whose name can be found in the pages of the Guinness Book of Records.

The 3.13 second figure is 0.34 seconds off the previous record.

Its author is Yusheng Du from China, who managed to solve the Rubik's Cube at an extremely high speed of 2.47 seconds in 2018.

But Max Park was in second place in speedcubing at that time, as his result was 3.63 seconds.

By the way, Max chose this sport to cope with autism, which he was diagnosed with in childhood.

Park's parents recall that he couldn't even open a bottle of water before, but assembling a puzzle always sparked genuine interest in him - perhaps this passion helped him achieve truly stunning results.
