This Box looks like an impossible object. You cannot shift it in any direction. But wait, there is a trick you won't expect!

Image someone glued 2 pieces of wood together and called it an “impossible puzzle”. People would have a roller coaster with that one.
That would be a good product for amazon
I personally would have sawn it open just out of curiousity.
@@tylerandrews3815 Yes, that's the reason we have saws :D
@@antondzajajurca7797not true, saws were made so that we could make the box, although we now have more options
That guy after smashing it against the wall out of rage: violence is the answer
@DaFoRk_Zenwarrior 16 Gandhi must be proud. 😂
Me: violence is not the answer My friends: ... BUT IT IS THE SOLUTION Me: wait no you weren’t supposed to do that-
Presenter: "Now I will show you how to solve it" Me: "Wow, must be quite difficult. Can't wait to see" Presenter: *SmACk*
Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣
Lol
Me: *SmACk*
"Keep in mind that knowing the solution cannot be reversed" Oh, trust me, I'll forget in a day or two.

Thanos I would think is too gangster to care about solving the puzzle and just break the box.✊🤷♂️
Another great solution is to chuck the box as hard as you can from a tall building. Opened immediately for me when I was in a fit of rage. 10/10 would recommend.

So basically this is a troll puzzle that is actually impossible until you get frustrated and find the solution by accident via hitting it. Lmfao
S h u t u p .
Or put it on a shelf with a big magnet on the red side of the box, then take it back and... magic - the puzzle solved itself.
Yup, this isn't a puzzle. Puzzles have logical solutions. This is just a trick box, not a puzzle box.

DatIceBear he must have bought other one because there is not a mark on the box. or it was thrown on carpet
DatIceBear That's exactly how I would have done it - lol. But I can't do these things. My mind just doesn't work that way, much though I wish it did. (I've tried to teach it using various styles of puzzles and the like. The only thing it got me was frustrated. Lol. My thought process simply does not go in that direction...)
Maybe, as the false dovetail joint is so badly damaged on one side that you can see it slides diagonally. However I would guess it is more likely he let his children play with it or accidentally dropped it after solving it.
DatIceBear 666 like
“You can’t shift it” Shifts it
The SavJav well yeh. If you watch the whole video you understand why. You have to smack the box because there is magnet inside

OMG Jo Nakashima my favourite origami channel!!!! But why do you have so less likes and no replies at all except mine? That's sad 😔
Hi
Hello!
OMG JO NAKASHIMA I ALWAYS DO ORIGAMI THAT YOU MAKE
Btw i made the spring origami from your channel :D
The dovetails are an illusion. The point of the puzzle is to make you assume the dovetails go straight through and that they're all 90 degrees perpendicular to each other. The parts actually slide apart on a diagonal. The little marble is just there to lock the puzzle temporarily. :)
I imagined the diagonal slots immediately, but the magnet and steel ball is a nice touch. Nice solve as always, keep it up!
Ben Hutten-Czapski how do you enjoy his? How stupid do you have to be to think this is fun??
love your positive attitude man, I'm glad you can see someone enjoying something you don't without feeling the urge to insult them. You do get that people have different interests? I find puzzles and skateboarding to be very zen/relaxing things to watch. No one is forcing you to watch any videos on the Mr.Puzzle channel.
I personally hardly consider this a 'puzzle'. Its neat though, but puzzle? no
Dazreiello it entices you to think critically for an extended period of time. what a coincidence, that's what puzzles are for.
Dazreiello but it is a puzzle though
Initially, I found myself saying, "get to the answer already!" but as I watched further and you revealed the answer, I felt this video was very well done. Well worth watching. 10/10.

Seeing the style of the box, I already thought that it was designed diagonally. Puzzle boxes are like magic, full of misdirections.
You know what would be awesome? If someone created a subscription box based on games and puzzles wherein each month, a subscriber would receive a brand-new puzzle to solve. Perhaps you could do something like that, Mr. Puzzle! I would totally join.
Sorry I didn't get it. Could you explain more in detail?
Mr.Puzzle i think he means to get an email box where You can let people send You puzzles, and at the end of every month, You can solve them on camera. content for You, satisfaction for fans.
Larry Laen no he meant subscription boxes like loot crate where every month they send you a box full of comic book related stuff for monthly payments he wants someone to do that but with puzzles

Thank you for showing how this puzzle works sir. I am blessed with a bad memory so if I find the puzzle again one day I will have forgotten how to work it and I can enjoy playing with it! Incidentally I loved your accent and voice. Thank you. Blessings and peace.

It's one of those puzzles that make you almost mad when you figure out how simple it is. xD
That was absolutely awesome. Very clever in deed! Thank you. Gave me much food for thought. New sub. Peace.
First thought... Smash it on the ground :D
I guess u can take it apart when u finally get annoyed xD
Liquid Sh4d0w xD
I figured it needed hit from n.and s.
Liquid Sh4d0w my first thought was flip it around
mine was flat screw driver and hammer
I made one of these out of aluminum. It uses a spring loaded detent ball to keep it centered and offer a little resistance to movement. I really like the tricky ball catch though. Good stuff. They are pretty useless if you don't have drugs to hide, judging by some of the comments.
Am I the only geek here that thought "Oh that'd be a good puzzle for my D&D group!"? Surely not....
Surely not;) It's a pity my party can't gather for a month already.
But of course there is a way! Safety goggles on! *Brandishes torch...*
His caution before showing solution on video is very kind and polite, however I'd never stop playing in such moment even not only once.
Clever. I get so frustrated doing puzzles like this. I don't know how Mr Puzzle has so much patience 😃
or get your axe and break it
That's when I have someone else do it for me
a haMmer?
its not really a puzzle though is it? those are hidden mechanisms...its like telling someone to open a door without a key. yes, you'll open the door, but so can a guy with a hammer. Not really a brain exercise. Unless you intend to make it one for your own amusement. Which is clearly what this guy did.
Step 1: Place on table Step 2: smash with hammer Now you have it open.
I wouldn't call that 'opening ' it
i thought he was gonna use a saw or something
Open is open. THe issue is when somebody asks to repeat-
10 out of 10 works for 70% of puzzles
CrisCoolNoob Same, I was thinking more of a chainsaw, though.
Thanks for making this, I've never seen a puzzle like that before.😄💜👍
Mr. Puzzle, do you do requests? About 30 years ago, I was given the opportunity to play with a big puzzle called the Porcupine (or something similar). The idea was to remove a wood circle captured in the middle of this thing by carefully turning sticks and pushing/pulling on them in order to release that circle. The puzzle was truly captivating because I assumed that the solution backtracked over the sticks/rods. Although I never solved it (it wasn't mine), I still would love to see it solved today. I can't find it anywhere on the internet, perhaps you know a fellow puzzler who might? I promise it would make a great video, especially if you draw out all the dependencies, etc.
I solve all my problems like that; just smack them to some kind of a hard surface.
Well, I hope you will never have a problem with me! :)
Mr.Puzzle LOL
Tygo Nelemans Me too.

I am obsessed with this channel. Watching all videos. I love puzzles but don't always have the patience to solve them. Hopefully I'll learn something here lol
Sorry.. I didn't realize that it was loosely fitted, and therefore it gave you the indication that there was a "stop" mechanism keeping it from sliding
What’s funny is this is a good reminder that what you would think is not always what actually is.
give me an axe and i can solve this puzzle.. 👍
how about you ask for a brain instead?
hmm.. will a chainsaw do?
Fancy Nancy that's what I said
Fancy Nancy i agree
Tommy Jarvis not really... the brain is exceptional at starting from scratch and piecing things together... aka *learning*
If you only knew how many times I already shared this video. So simple, yet so genious!
Amazing!I would never,ever come to solution to open it!I admit it.
I figured out sliding it at an angle but the magnets/ball was a surprise. Cool vid
phatcawk yep same lol
me too... exactly same
Same here. Now i want to make one.
phatcawk me too!
*_takes a sledgehammer_*
your picture goes with the comment 😸
+Noiz yours too
I love these kind of puzzles, so ingenious!!
My first thought that you would twist/rotate the pieces, but he killed that notion within the first minute. I haven't thought through fully whether you could actually cut curved grooves in a way that would work, but I feel like that could be possible. It would probably be just as easy/hard as this puzzle if you had the same kind of magnetic ball/pin lock.
I wonder how many people solved it by throwing it against the wall out of frustration
Douglas Weatherford hahaha lol I bought that box and threw it at the wall it opened up THEN I found this video which would have made it WAY easier
Douglas Weatherford most likely alot
just say it: you can hide drugs inside it. :-)
JBL Asutavario and how are you gonna hide the drugs after you use them?
they'll be hidden in my body; another puzzle that needs solving!
JBL Asutavario what if you have more drugs then that
m m then I share with friends to hide in their puzzle boxes. or I disguise the drugs as one big puzzle!
JBL Asutavario if police don't watch this video lol
Thankfully you showed the solution😅 I was going insane just seeing it closed😂😂
Without magnetic part also very interesting 👍
Nice one, its simple but tricky and it looks impossible
Exactly!
How about this, can you solve this puzzle? Woman
You don't have to be smart to figure out how to open this box. You just need a little common sense.
Cr Yo my common sense was smashing it open though ://
You Cef ii
I've been watching woodworking videos, and transparent paint made me laugh! Usually, it would be called a varnish.
Also in German it has a separate word. I try do do not too much cuts in the video. If I miss a word I just replace it by another one. :) At least it seems everyone understood what I was trying to say. :D
:D
The word replacement. I do that with spanish. Works great with me. If that fails, there is always sign language That's quite smart, the replacement
Wow!!! You are so great to figured it out.., But later I realize how much more the one who invented this. Wow!!!
Gee, the good old days when Mr.Puzzle was reviewing $7 puzzles! 😊

Mr.Puzzle Deutsch?
Mr.Puzzle my guess was right about the inner mechanics of the puzzle and how to open it but I was surprised when i saw that ball bearing that was used to block the movement of the parts and fool the solver...

Mistic Gamer smartass
Yep
*And How Will I know there is a MAGNET INSIDE ??*
Lying ass
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!😍😉✌👍❤💯%
well wood was an horrible idea. the ruined edges ruin the whole puzzle
Yes, I already broke some. :( Metal would be better but difficult with the magnets. :)
There are enough non magnetic alloys and metals. The problem is with your chipped puzzle is you can already tell how you have to move the parts without doing anything.
Mr.Puzzle they could use a nonferrous metal.
Yes, you are right! But anyway, your enthusiasm about seeing the solution directly will be immediately disappear when you try to move it and it does not. :)
At least this happened to me. :D
The main, outside the box idea here, is that the continuation of the dovetail inside the box doesn't have to be perpendicular to the surface, but can exist in a slanted direction creating common rails. The ball and magnets are the second idea, how to block the two parts from slipping naturally, and make think that the dovetails are the ones blocking any movement. The second one is more of a trick, but a necessary one.
wow! so simple but brilliant
It's so deceptive...it looks simple, and yet, it's anything but easy! Beautiful work on the creator's part! Thanks for the awesome video showing us how it's done!
oh my god, I had one of these boxes for like five years and I never figured it out. I would have never, in my entire life, thought to smack it against my hand like that. That's not a "puzzle." That's a lucky guess. I'm so salty.
I figured out the trick immediately, but the steel ball and the magnets were a nice addition to complete the illusion.
Mr. Puzzle, You Are Truly The Best !!!!!
Ok so there's no mechanic inside! Great!
Or there might be one, but you at least can't hear him screaming to get out.
Only 1 in 50 have the mechanic inside. They do that on purpose so you have to keep buying them.
Mine had a plumber inside, cheap defective garbage.
