Speedcubing

Speedcubing. What could it be? You probably guessed "solving Rubik's cubes with mad speed, the ultimate combination of athleticism and algorithm" and you are correct. With Minh Thai being featured in a recent Giant Robot, you know it's not long before fast fingers will get you laid.

I love the Crazy Records categories.

Rubik's Cube 3x3x3: While idling on a unicycle
Rubik's Cube 3x3x3: Using chopsticks
Rubik's Cube 3x3x3: While experience 2.5-3 G's of force

Note the lack of records like, "While getting head", "During a threesome", or even "With a girl present"

I swear those will come once ESPN picks up on this.

ESPN2, this sport is too extreme for ESPN.
