  • Fit the chain with its five interconnected links completely into the box. An intriguing task that sounds simple but is hard to solve. Extremely satisfying!

    I had been thinking your channel is getting increasingly aligned with Chris Ramsay's puzzle stuff. With your B-roll intros and music choices. That wouldn't be great tbh; just be who you are be!
    But then, 3mins into this puzzle, when you still hadn't tried smashing the chain into the box and slapping them about just to see if it worked, the difference becomes clear again. 😆
    I love both channels, but keep doing your own thing, and above all; keep on puzzling!

    @Mr.Puzzle
    Even though a lot of Western Europeans speak better English than most English only speakers, you often have one little bit of grammar wrong that would be really easy to fix.
    Around 2mins you say "I will explain you" {how it works}. You need to jam a "to" in there so it's "I will explain TO you". "I will explain you" jars out a little bit to native speakers because that would mean you are explaining something about the listener personally.
    I lived in Europe for a few years and noticed heaps of people make the same tiny mistake, obviously because of how their native languages structure sentences.
    It makes no difference in understanding but it's a bit of polish, so to speak.
    I'm not breaking your balls, I just thought it was an easy thing you could do to improve while speaking English, makes it sound more fluent.
    Anyone else: please don't critique my own English, I'm just trying to be helpful.
