Max is no stranger to breaking records that appear impossible. Veteran cuber Erik Akkersdijk said his timing of 1 minute, 40 seconds to break the 7x7x7 single record was the most amazing thing he had ever seen.
He has become a prominent figure in the cubing community, and over the years he has formed a close friendship with fellow speedcubing legend Feliks Zemdegs.
